Far from me and even farther yet from being unaware of me and still unaware.Far from me because you undoubtedly do not love me or, what amounts to thesame thing, that I doubt you do.Far from me because you consciously ignore my passionate desires.Far from me because you are cruel.If you only knew...
Far from me, joyful as a flower dancing in the river at the tip of its aquatic stem,sad as 11 p.m. in a mushroom bed.Far from me yet silent in my presence and still joyful like a stork-shaped hourfalling from on high.Far from me at the moment when the stills are singing, at the moment when thesilent and loud sea curls up on its white pillows.If you only knew...
Far from me, O my ever-present torment, far from me in the magnificent noise ofoyster shells crushed by a night owl passing a restaurant at first light.If you only knew.Far from me, willed, physical mirage.Far from me there's an island that turns aside when ships pass.Far from me a calm herd of cattle takes the wrong path, pulls up stubbornly at theedge of a steep cliff, far from me, cruel you.Far from me, a shooting star falls into the poet's nightly bottle.He corks it right away and from then on watches the star enclosed in the glass, theconstellations born on its walls, far from me, you are so far from me.If you only knew...
Far from me, If you only knew.If you only knew how I love you and, though you do not love me, how happy Iam, how strong and proud I am, with your image in my mind, to leave the universe.How happy I am to die for it.If you only knew how the world has yielded to me.And you, handsome unyielding lad, how you too are my prisoner.O you, far-from-me, who I yield to.If you only knew...
