The star i lived on is no more
the sun in whose retinue
the star moved round the world
is no more.
the life i owned,
the life that was the blood s delight and agony,,
is no more.
that dead star among stars,
that dead sun among sun among suns,
that dead face among faces
which was mine,
i remember no more.
but i am.
Arvid Mörne
