on my own

because
              we don't need anyone to be with us at that moment,
because
            it is so intimate,
too intimate,

only

maybe
            we”ll need some little breeze touching  the chin or forehead,

i would prefer calm rain
                  as if someone still wants to cry for me like in old times,
like when people were dressed up in black and carried handkerchiefs in their pockets, and someone would take out his handkerchief  from the pocket
and wipe his eyes and nose,
maybe
        the sun will rise
or
come down with me,

i won't mind; a few little birds chirping up in the air, so
                        i can still breathe in the grassroots and
listen to the winds before the rains

after, because it is so intimate
                                        i will close my eyes and leave
on my own

                 without thinking of you,
and probably that would be it
