P. 55
Sitting alone, here
While hearing the song of the wind
Thinking of the migratory birds
Thinking on the emptiness
And the song of the wind got even stronger
It’s like a submarine exploring my seabed
Like I wish I could do with you
The song of the wind is now silent
And I still have a lump in the throat.
There is a sort of a wall between us
You built it because you are afraid
And doing that, you scared me
I can be a migratory bird and fly until
I overcome your walls, until I touch you in a trivial dance
I wish I could destroy it with a sword
Or with a kiss
I wish I could just sit next to you
Just the two of us
Walking down the streets of Bergolo
Like tillandsia plant, I have no roots
Like the folaghe, I have no roots
So forgive me if, just for a moment
I’ve been thinking on having roots
So that they could touch the ground
Drinking your water instead of mine
Forgive me if I wish I could have stared into your eyes a bit
longer
Than the nothingness you allowed me to.
((Thanks for having being my muse and inspiration during
the whole project.))
