Now you go

Now you go, we don’t care
if I cry
The true interest is
if this is your right road

Will be empty your bed
and the bedroom
and the home: you need space

Will you come back?
You’ll be back again, yet:  not the same
you’ll be a man and foreigner: not the same

A few days and perhaps we’ll be again
as a presence, but old and away

Now you go, we don’t care
if you cry
The true interest is
if this is the right road

Now you go: so the world
will be open.
I begin to count up
my old memories
