CARTE BLANCHE #21
I don’t know when I live
When I live doesn’t bring me back to us anymore
Who then
Will remember us
If even I forget hours and days
If even I erase rendezvous
Who will remember us
If even I spread days
Away from you
If even I collect hours
Expiring from you
If I am not the keeper
Of our absent memories
Of our times
Spent to beat the clock
If I am not the owner
Of our past love
Of our hours
Spent to distance the gap
I don’t know where I breathe
Where I breathe doesn’t bring me back to us anymore
Who then
Will remember us
If even I flee shelters and homes
If even I erase myself from you
Who will remember us
If even I seed miles between us
Filing our silences
If even I layer buildings between us
Spinning our absences
If I abandon my temple
To time’s erosion
If I surrender my devotions
To wind’s consolation
If I abandon our lands
To the grey North
If I surrender our world
To the next roll
Who will remember us
If not yesterday’s whispers
