You passed in the same way
the comets surround the earth-
without touching it,
but leaving behind them
only shooting stars.
I would meet you,
I would be able to touch you,
But everything inside
would become suffering.
I prefer my solitude,
which is as elliptical as
an ordinary rock
and which is forgotten
on the seashore.
'Tis increasingly defined
by the waves.
I prefer that solitude,
Which is always
misapprehended
by the people around.
Day by day, it is
harder and harder for me
to understand
my inner being.
I enter the timeless realm of change
and I dissolve my memories
in a final wave,
which is a little more tuneful
until ceasing to exist.
yes, I've always wondered how someone can burn you and not even know it...
Very sad but solitude has its own rewards.A ten from me.
This is a great poem Marieta...truly expressive of the effect that people can have on us, even from a distance, and how we struggle to respond. Great imagery. N
