Dear son
I am no longer at home
Oh! Christ
I left the premise
I'm tired of vain discussions
Which won't go anywhere except in the trash
I only want to hear pretty and lovely songs
Time is too precious and life too good
To throw them into the pond of mediocrity
Really, I want to end my life in beauty
And in peace. Your mother refuses to change
I have made enough sacrifices and compromises
In her big head, she's always right
She has too many counselors and false friends
Dear son, I must go
But, I won't abandon you for any reason
I will now spend more time with you
I will take my tasks seriously. Believe me
I will never stop loving you
Since I have nothing against you
The situation is difficult. I must go
It's hard. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep
Tonight. Everything bothers me. I must leave
I want my peace and my freedom.
