All the little shutters opened up
feeling what is going on
in the twilight
within me
not fantasizing
feeling what is going on
outside, over there, a farewell
their arms around each other
and all the way long
my legs are tired
from the runner who smiles
at the happy woman
tears in my eyes
over the baby in her pram
it is getting dark
my window a mirror
in which my preliminary self
asks for love
for my marriage
under construction
and for my body
oh mirror image
I love you
I do what I can
