![]() In memory of JoséphineA Poem by Hanalia![]() written in 2008 inspired by the lovely trilogy about Napoleon's wife Joséphine written by Sandra Gulland![]()
Yesterday you deceased again Joséphine
Your nut-brown hair fell last time Your voice died away without a single sigh Your eyes seeked who was miles away. Fragrance of lemon on your crumpled cushion Lulled you to eternal sleep The will wont command you back again That possessed you in its heart for years. You took him away also Joséphine His corpus collapsed without your heart. His star of fortune doesnt guide him anymore He was pushed down from the marble throne. The heart has risen for a hundred days again To live up your remembrance once more The word is glowing again on his ring To remind him of his „destiny”. Yesterday he deceased with you, Joséphine My soul has fallen to the ground Abandoned words on the sheets of a book: La liberté ou la mort. © 2011 Hanalia
