12835 - ὥρα καὶ ἡ ἐξουσία τοῦ σκότους

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Evi Charitidou

Do not be afraid
even at the time
that darkness comes
and if you feel sad
is because
you do not see
the continuation of the work
and the need
which this fulfills;
do not stick to
the kiss only
because the tree
already awaits
the traitor;
look at the wood
writing
the memory
and remember
the thorns
touching
the Christ’s
head.
