Hope

Who will write my life?

Who will weigh my sins

and all the good, perhaps, have I had?

Who will pardon me for having existed

for so long, having changed so little?

Will my witnesses honor me and tell

all the love I have spread by the way?

May I take until my last home all the joy

I have been bathed in by birth,

that life’s disillusions have never dried.

I know there has been an angel

who has guided me, mainly

in some dark and strange nights.
