わたしの一番好きなページ
私の名前がこれまでどおり
ありふれた言葉として呼ばれますように
思えば
大好きな母のことが
悲しみの象徴のようになっていて
周囲も、私自身も
母のことを封印してしまいがち
そんなに泣いていたら
お母さんが悲しむ
早く忘れて、前に進め
そんな風に言われると
本当は傷つく
たとえ涙が出ちゃうとしても
母の名前を呼び、母の話できたら
私は、すごくうれしい
それが今の私の
本当の気持ち
英文を引用しておきます
Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other.
that we are still.
Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile,think of me,pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always as.
Let it be spoken without effect,
without the ghost of a shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was.
There is absolutely unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?
I am just waiting for you, for an interval,
somewhere very near, just around the corner.
All is well.
