Il y avait un mariage.
May 5th, 2014, 12am
It was 19°C with clouds and visibility OK. The breeze was gentle.
Il y avait un mariage dans ce temple aujourd’hui. La musique est monté. L’émotion aussi. Une émotion venue de mes profondeurs. Car la musique (traditionnelle japonaise) n’évoquait rien pour moi.
Je me suis mis à pleurer. Les larmes sont sorties toutes seules.
Tout comme moi, de l’enceinte du temple.
Je me suis surpris à me concentrer pour respirer, comme si je m’étais pris une onde de choc.
