Loneliness

loneliness a sunless sunday
is the laziness to get up.
an empty glass without drink
lack of sleep at dawn
the rain that wets and displaces
the drought of the long way,
a tree without fruit,
a river without fish, without water
hug without correspondence.
unchanged word,
pale smile without tenderness.
yellowed fields,
house without yard or porch
disheveled garden without flowers...
My gaze without your beloved gaze,
my unrequited kiss,
loneliness is long wait for nothing...
Life without arrival, without departure... !
