How To Burn Morrowind

Twenty poems of love and a song of despair


10

We have lost even this twilight.
one we had seen with their hands united by this evening, when the night is blue
plagued the world.

I saw from my window
ceremony west to the distant hills.

As time
coin in my hands flared up a little piece of the sun.

I told you from the heart of the compressed
from this sadness, which I know

So, where were you? Among
What people?
What you said the word?
Why all the love comes suddenly then
when I feel sad and I feel that far away are you?

Fallen book, which is always taken at dusk, and as
wounded dog at my feet dragged mantle.

Always, always receding, when evening falls,
in this page, rubbing the darkness where he runs monuments.
