Goodbye Poem by Josep Piera

I have lost words
now that you are dead.
Now
now that you have died
I have been left
with nothing, like a baby
at birth, far from you
naked
screaming
crying
full of tears
but speechless
no gestures
no words to say
I love you
I have you
I carry you
with me
a living part of memory
forever
