Eugène Dayot: Moi (Le lépreux)

 

Moi (Le lépreux)

Quand les neiges de l’âge auront blanchi mon front,
Aurai-je une âme en qui s’épanchera mon âme?
Non, malheureux, au port où m’attend l’abandon,
sans joie et sans regret, je quitterai la rame!
Aucun enfant au seuil de mes jours éternels,
Ne viendra recevoir mes baisers paternels!
Sur ma couche, râlant, combattant l’agonie,
Mes regards vainement chercheront une amie!
Dans ce monde où tout naît, tout vit et doit mourir,
Que laisserai-je ? … Rien… pas même un souvenir!!

24 mars 1836

Eugène Dayot
(1810-1852)
