photo: fern in the making, Split Apple Rock, the repetition of things

we were apologising for this and that

for one thing or another

« you can never apologise too much »

a mantra like any other

we were apologising for this and that

without always knowing why

« you can never apologise too much »

we told ourselves, a mantra like any other

It must have been for that

that we apologised like that.

Photo: the small details have been grabbing my attention lately.

It couldn’t last forever.

that, we knew very well

but we would enjoy it

as long as we could

Walking in the daylight

watching and finally seeing, seeing!

Of course, bad days would come

but today we were living in

the thrills of nature,

its quiet march towards a long sleep

but before it would happen

It would make the leaves fall,

one by one, or in heaps

so as to let the light seep in

on the days of severe cold.

Tata Beach. What remains when you realise that you have reached the end of a long relationship, whether friendly or otherwise, because everything has been said.

We will say to each other

here is what I have done

here is what I have said

here is who I am (now)

here is where I will be

then a long silence

it will contain our story, long and with no regret.
