Mediocre [English translation]

Those are the pages I wrote yesterday,

the language left on your skin.

the ink with all the intention

to leave what I am with you.

Little by little

my idleness took over.

When I look you are no longer here

and I stayed until the end.

And I thought I was so special

How naive, my awkwardness.

And I felt I was so essential

How naive, my shame

You forgot me,

As for my part, how mediocre.

I love to hear you talk

What an elegance to make you feel bad

I just want you today to want

me to show you who I am.

And little by little

my hatred took over.

You did not want something more

and I stayed until the end.

And I thought I was so special

How naive, my awkwardness.

And I felt I was so essential

How naive, my shame

You forgot me,

As for my part, how mediocre.
