Pain

If to recover the recovered thing
I had to lose first the lost one,
if to obtain the obtained thing
I had to stand the things that I stood to.
If to be now enamored
it is necessary to be wounded,
I accept to suffer how I am suffering,
I do accept to cry how I am crying .
Because after all I have understood
that what the tree has of flowery
lives from it has buried.

THE CRYING GAME
