Everything you carry,

You carry, together.

Back then,

the only English you knew

was my name.

Running toward the shipyard,

Lifting crates from the cobblestone.

You wrote me recently:

To love and be loved-

It means everything you carry,

You carry, together.

In a way, we’re strangers.

But I don’t miss anything from home,

Except you.
