One day, I'll leave...
Passenger of this vessel
sailing on the dry tears
of the sea of tranquility .
My capricious love ,in memoriam,
savouring this old buccaneer's rum
and these treasure islands stopovers...
Teenage dizziness rediscovered .
The great clock will joyfully beckon
and I'll be on my way ,leaving no testament
to my errancy in this place !
One day, I'd go down the streets of my life,
the skin of the rain having a scent
of cinnamon and honey
and that taste of Elisa and Melissa
interwined ...
One day ,I'll fly away
on a white unicorn wings ,
Mary Poppins keeping me company
under her large unfurled umbrella..
One day,I'll forget those inferno seasons
and these artifacts disguised as paradise...
O gentle mirror ! You will no longer be
the confidant of my worries ...
I'll blow out the drowsy candle ,
Old alchimist transmuting gold into shade,
my fancy luggage ready for boarding ,
leaving home tidy and welcoming ,
a kiss to my beloved teddy !
So I could leave without looking back
or regretting it ...
Isn't death a departure toward all arrivals ?
