I do not want to live

I do not want to live
islands , palaces, towers.
What highest joy :
pronouns live !
Take off and costumes,
signs , pictures ;
I do not love you so,
masquerading as another ,
daughter always something.
I want pure, free ,
irreducible : you.
I know that when I call
among all
people of the world ,
only you will be you.
And when you ask me
who is calling you ,
which you want yours
I bury the names ,
signs , history .
I'll break all
what threw me over
before birth .
And I returned and the anonymous
Eternal naked
Stone , the world,
I'll tell you :
" I love you, I am."
