Drowned Quotes

“Fear envelops bones like new skin,
envelops blood with night’s skin,
the earth moves beneath the soles of the feet -
it is not your hair but the terror in your head,
like long hair made of vertical nails,
and what you see are not shattered streets,
but rather, within you, your own crushed walls,
your frustrated infinity, again the city comes
crashing down: in your silence, only water’s threat
is heard, and in the water
drowned horses gallop through your death.”
― Pablo Neruda, The Poetry of Pablo Neruda

“A voice came from his inside, and shook him up by the roots; the inner voice that had been drowned long back, somewhere deep within, by the noise of opinions of others; the voice that had been constantly screaming ever since, albeit failingly, from the depth to make itself heard; the voice that was now distinctly audible in silence, suggesting him to take a new path, a path that he would have to walk upon alone.”
