The déséquilibre

So much is lost
Dans une autre langue.
To speak in another tongue
De se cacher
Who you have become.

Ceux qui te comprennent
They can never understand you, you’re being lied to.
Une moité-moite, une mixité
Do they know what it means to you?

Tu lis toi-même
Into a person and a half,
Doubled up —
It never feels like enough.
Est-ce qu’il y a plus?

The power of two.
