Poem: The Future

THE FUTURE

Carlos Zaldívar

Exists or not?

I’ve been never worried about it

Been criticized for this

But I’m sure…

The past doesn’t exist, and

The future will never come…

Still not worried

Now, I just want to live with you

To be with you

To love you

And die with you…

I don’t want to know

Otherwise, I wouldn’t write this

Maybe if I were living in the future

I write stuff,

Illness or sickness, but not now

Still not worried

December, 2000.
