Insanely I desire to live:
All that exists - immortalize, and
All that is faceless - humanize, and
The non-existing: To fulfil!
Let breathe existence's heavy slumber,
And let me strangled by it be -
Perhaps sometime a happy young one
Will in the future speak of me:
Forgive the gloom - is that, forsooth, the
True hidden engine that's in him?
He - is the child of light and goodness,
He - is the triumph of liberty!
