Where Without Whom There is not A single soul among the trees And I Don't know where I've gone. - Poem by Octavio Paz
Alone amid the milieu of trees the forest strips me of identity, as easily as autumn fells a leaf. The mist of saudade pursues me, not for lost kin, nor for empty home, but for the stranger I once called 'myself', that I once thought I knew now poised on the brink of being, Alone!
