Manuela Cardiga - Guilty Pleasures and Culinary Treasures

I WILL NO LONGER BE GOOD

Loved, not loving
Seen, not seeing
Cared, not caring
Spoiled, not spoiling
Nurtured, not nurturing
Adored, not adoring
Dreamed, not dreaming

Because I have
Spent my life
Being loving, not loved
Seeing, not seen
Caring, not cared for
Nurturing, not nurtured
Adoring, not adored
Dreaming and not being
The lovely dream.

I will no more be
Understanding
Without being
Understood,
I don’t want that.

I want to be
Lonely alone,
And enjoy
The solitude.
