I tell myself
For something real, like: Love.
For something real, like: Hope.
For something real, like: Faith.
I must quietly concentrate on them,
Like a yogi does!

Withdrawn into myself,
The yogic essence grants me the tip.
I begin to inhale and exhale.
I breathe in love, hope and faith.
I breathe out slowly the indifference
Of the world... and I keep trying!
