The Death of the Beloved

The Death of the Beloved

Unexpectedly
I received a message
that the beloved has departed
I did not believe it
how can that happen ? I asked
but it was too late
to ask such questions
because the beloved was late
gone
to the dark land
that has no visiting hours
that has no gates nor doors
for me to enter
day and night I'm on a river of tears
lamenting
the death of the beloved
whose image is always in my mind.
