021 - Lips: An Open Wound

021 - Lips: An Open Wound

- Once, in the very old days, Humans had no mouths.

 - And how did they speak?

 - They didn’t.

 - Strange... I don’t understand how that is possible.

- But I haven't told the story yet; wait a moment.

 - How do you expect me to wait, when I hear such things?

  - Let’s say, then, that you don’t have a mouth either.

 - Mmm!

   - Fine!

- Let us continue, then. 

In those times, two young people met.

- And since they could not speak, 

they were always looking into each other's eyes.

Yes, exactly like that!

- Only after a while, 

they realized how much they Loved one another...

-  Mmm!

- Yes, without speaking.

They felt the Other, and that was enough!

- I can’t take it anymore!

- That is exactly what they felt, too! 

They thought to ask a Wise Man to deliver them.

 - And what did he tell them?

- He told them that: 

Something was missing from their faces an Open Wound.

- What a strange way to talk about Lips!

   - The Wise Man tried to explain that, from this Open Wound,

all their torments would emerge, 

and they would speak of all their joys...

- Wise men are bold!

 - He realized that he couldn’t help them that way...

   - He remained silent for quite some time...

Only Silence helps Thought.

- An so, he found the solution...

- What did he tell them?

   - He spoke to them about the Lips.

 - The Lips?

   - And the Kiss!

 - The Kiss?

- What a strange Wise Man!

 - And the Truth is strange!

 - And curious! Tell me then.

- He told them about the Open Wounds that close.

 - Big deal!

   - Not those that close on their own. Those aren't real!

 - Correct!

- He told them about those that close when there are two...

- When he told them that the Kiss closes the Wounds, 

their Lips opened and they kissed!

- My Soul!

- Do you want to heal my Wound?
