They asked about you, and I showed them my palms. They didn't understand that I was praying! Every day, we watch a mortal in the mirrors. On top of that, we carry an unloved heart. Some people stubbornly did not love us. They watched where we would get caught, like watching a bag blown about by the wind. They watched us, as if watching a kite whose string had snapped, while waiting with pleasure for us to crash. If we wanted to stop and catch our breath, they pushed us; if we wanted to walk, they held us back. When we wanted to explain, they didn't listen; when we were silent, they asked why we weren't explaining. On whatever morning you intend to leave, I will coat the sun with mud all night long. I will break all phones and clocks set to keep you asleep and prevent you from waking up. To ensure you stay asleep, I will act as a big brother to all babies so they won't cry. I will tour all the city squares one by one and start a hunger strike for you. I will go out on every bridge there is, pour gasoline over myself, and make my final stand with matches in my hand. I will throw tantrums, faint, and fall to the ground so you won't leave; I will refuse to accept any help. I will threaten all our mutual friends with the curse of my rights. I will beg them, with pleading, with coquetry, or with entreaty, to mediate and convince you. I have one last trump card: My love, if you do not give up on leaving, at the first light of dawn, I will be raised on shoulders and buried in the earth!
