I make the other’s absence responsible for my worldliness.

I look at myself but I'm missing. I know myself: it's not me.

Not for one second will my self hold still, but wanders anywhere, everywhere it can turn. Not you, it is I am absent.

What truly remains of me Is that very thing- my absence.

Sí, me apartaré. Prefiero lamentarme de tu ausencia que de ti.

If we must absolutely mention this state of affairs, I suggest that we call ourselves "absent", that is more proper.

From my silence, only my voice is missing.

Your absence insanes me so — I do not feel so peaceful, when you are gone from me.

I lack myself.

Absent, adj. Peculiarly exposed to the tooth of detraction; vilifed; hopelessly in the wrong; superseded in the consideration and affection of another.

For with G. D., to be absent from the body is sometimes (not to speak profanely) to be present with the Lord.

Original: Há muito tempo que não sou eu.

I am other I now.
