              Something closed must

              retain our memories,

              while leaving them

              their original value

              as images.

              Memories of

              the outside world

              will never have

              the same tonality

              as those of  home

              and,

              by recalling these memories,

              we add  to our store

              of dreams;

              we are never real

              historians,

              but always near poets,

              and our emotion is perhaps

              nothing

              but an expression

              of a poetry that was lost.”
