Miniature |
Let me tell you a secret, one from |
accross the divide; |
when I saw you |
with her that day, I… |
…I don’t know how I felt, |
to be honest. |
Confused, maybe, |
at first and sad, because of the usual, |
but just for a moment…- |
and then it all changed. |
Because there was also another |
sensation, one I had never |
encountered before: |
a genuine pleasance, |
a warmth overcame me, and I was |
surprised that the only cause for this |
was the fact that YOU were happy, |
and to witness this fortune |
that wasn’t my own, was enought yet |
for me to abandon my sadness |
and delight in the joy… |
…that you clearly had found. |
But then, as it is with a mind that is |
tidal, at the end of the day the sadness |
returned, along with the cruelty of my |
condition: forever denied… what now |
became hers. |
To put it more bluntly: I pitied myself. |
I sat there and cried and sobbed like |
a fool that nature had built me in such |
a foul way…- that I will never be |
what she is to you. |
Yet, as I compared my grey solitude |
to the golden halo of your blissful joy, |
that warmth from before once more |
overcame me and stayed in my heart |
till this very day. |
So, let me tell you a secret now: |
it’s almost like I am no longer myself, |
I am bathed in a wonderful feeling…- |
for I now that you’re happy and well. |
