Breath of Life
Without you in the park,
I look at the sun hiding behind gray clouds,
Birds fly a lost flight, without sunlight
To guide their paths and dives in calm waters.
Without you in the park,
I also feel no joy like birds.
The grass is cold without your body heat,
Where you lay looking at the sky with lost thoughts.
Without you in the park, only loneliness I feel.
While the cool breeze touches my face,
I hear the birdsong that because I feel sad,
They also seem sad to me.
Without you in the park, I only have the
wildflowers you gave me for company.
Today they are lifeless… seeming to feel like me,
The lack of your dear presence.
Without you in the park, the grass beside me remains cold.
I feel you in the sad corner of birds,
I feel you in my heart…
Which is also sad.
Regent’s Park. London, 17th June 1990

MY DIVIDED HEART
Breath of Life I feel my heart divided For those who are close to me and whom I love so much, And by whom, far be it from me... And whom I love very much too. I live with my heart divided, For the immense desire to stay, for the immense desire to leave, Living only in...
