Good-Morning Solitude
Good morning solitude
today I’ve decided to make her my friend
so many times she has surrounded me
in this prison of loneliness while you were away…
apart in this immense distance, I can’t think.
I want to get away from her while I’m still in your arms
and I want to run away desperately,
to find some kind of refuge
I fought to stay away from her
and I fought each time as I dream alone.
So many times I invited her to live with me,
particularly today, while you were away…
Good morning solitude
maybe you don’t scare me with your claws,
even with your abyss that pulled me down, I must be tough.
