Tonight i will sleep on the floor

 

"Tonight I will write the saddest lines" Pablo Neruda

Tonight i will sleep on the floor
Close to earth; seven feet below you lie
Because the ready-made solutions
On quora and wiki
And even Neruda's saddest lines
Do not make sense today at all.
Tonight i will sleep on the floor
Because sometimes you've to be brave enough
To sail without a map on hand
To sleep without a pillow underneath your head.
