"I must love mainly the sad ones,
that were not loved
not by lack of lovers
but by lack of love."
I CANNOT WAIT ANY MORE
I am in a hurry to wander by,
to love and praise world’s beauties,
before, all at once, they cease to be.
I must love mainly the sad ones,
that were not loved
not by lack of lovers
but by lack of love.
So proud of my want,
only will praise some wild
and lost in hidden waterfalls,
after untrodden ways.
I will break my heavy chains
and soon start my journey,
avoiding one chronic sadness
and the trampling of the ways
I will pass by.
