I do not want light,
I do not want anything!
I want only solitude.
Silence is my friend,
it is always my preferred.
Alone, always alone,
the solitude my friend.
As the nights badly slept
sometimes reprehended,
for not being understood,
and to want to be friend.
I do not ask for nothing
and nothing I want,
I walk alone,
with my silence,
my secrets,
my desires,
nothing more it matthers,
I am just alive! ...
I ask! Support me! ...
Until my death.
