Poem

In Danish


For at forfølge det håb, som dræber mig

forfølger jeg tanken, der nærer håbet.

Jeg forfølger kærligheden, der nærer tanken,

og ikke tillader mig at dø I glemslen,

men nærer håbet om en time så uendelig stor,

at intet døgn kan rumme dens meningsløse tidsløshed.


På det seneste har den tanke forfulgt mig,

at evigheden er opbygget af små øjeblikke

der per defination

er unikke.


Kim Mortensen 1996


In English (Google translation)


To pursue the hope which kills me

I pursue the idea that nourishes hope.

I will pursue the love that nourishes the idea

and does not allow me to die in oblivion,

but nourishes hope in an hour so infinitely great,

that no day can hold its senseless timelessness.


More recently, the thought has haunted me,

that eternity is made up of little moments

which by definition

are unique.


Kim Mortensen 1996
