One more ice-cream?
  No, thank you.
I don't want to eat,
  really.
What do I want?
  To get rid
of these pains...
  and live long...,
for ever...

I want a good flat
  and creative work.

I want my family
  to be healthy and happy,
so that
  we could always have a great talk.

It's strange to think
  so much is in the past...

Life is so short...

My youth and young years couldn't last...

Somehow I don't want
  to imagine my future...

What can it bring, anyway!

While there's so much to do
   by way
of prayer,
 creativity
  and promotion of my art -
a whole array 
  of things...

Shall I have enough time,
  enough health,
enough heart
  to fulfill
all this,
  to build
a bridge
  into the future,
a bridge
  that will live longer,
much longer than me?

Not like The Bridge of San Luis Rey,
  but an inivisible thing
that will support art fugitif,
   art figuratif...


I know,
  my ideas are strong,
but I need to prolong
 this way
after I go away...
