I Close the Door
I leave the room. This time needs no memory.
It doesn’t matter now in the deep silence.
In a while my life will write a new story.
Now I try to keep myself at a distance.
Do I feel a sorrow or bitterness?
Maybe. But I don’t regret my decision.
I allow myself a minute of weakness
For the past dreams and hopes of the lost woman...
I turn off lights, and close the door, and leave keys.
I’m not curious about new residents.
I like the silence – no voices and faces.
I go away. No-one perceives my absence…
