Remain at the Gate
by
Doina Mican
Remain at the Gate
I am,
From another world,
Delayed but for an instant,
To lose myself into pleasure,
And easily slither,
Into oblivion!
Do not think,
That I am alive!
For you,
I am amazingly dead.
I am no longer,
From your world!
Therefor I request,
That you shall remain at the gate!
I can hear you.
You wish to retain me.
Probably to love me,
Even to understand me.
It would all be great,
But it’s too late,
Because for you,
I am already dead.
The French version is below (at the request of Poets that can read in the French language)
Restez-Vous a la porte
Je suis
D’un autre monde
Atardee un instant.
Je m’oublie a plaisir
Pour mieux glisser
Dans le neant.
Ne croyez pas
Que je suis vivante.
Pour vous
Je suis merveilleusement mort.
Je ne suis plus
De votre monde,
S’il vous plait
Restez-vouz a la porte!
Je vous entends.
Vous voulez me retenir
M’aimer peut-etre
Aussi me comprendre.
Tout cella pourrait etre bon
Mais c’est trop tard
Car pour vous
Je suis deja morte !
