Losses, renunciations

There comes a moment in your life

when we begin to lose:

We lose beloved creatures,

we lose the things

that have delighted our life,

we lose the close connection to life,

we lose years,

we lose too much

and we never know why

we are bound to lose so much.

Each loss bites your heart…

As long as we are young we don\'t imagine

we could lose, some day,

what we have won

in the fight with life…

We don’t know, that later on,

we\'ll have to bear with dignity

the renunciations,

without breaking our being

without revolt, without hatred,

but with a gentle detachment,

with a sad regret.

Can our mistakes account

for all these absurd deaths ?

But, my God,

in what moment of life

do we begin to fault ?

Do we fault because we exist

or do we exist for making faults ?
