Wings

 The not taken paths

never existed

And the lost ones

they are forever

Memory weighs foggy

different for each of us

Suspended we are over the abyss

over the past rubble

Our fragile wings spreaded

in a longing for heaven

If...

If in the air a gasp

rapidly flapping wings

on the edge of the night

vaguely floods your pale face

in this silent wall of shadows

tell me where that bright path is

that I dreamed of for us in our most beautiful days?

It is the time my dear for a profounder prayer

in this gathered shell of naked flesh

like a wound that cannot heal

in a faint and animal tremor

infinitesimal particles

of a brownian haze

I beg your pardon my children

no longer my eyes see

in the dark we are all alone

Kingdom of words

This word that doesn't move armies
doesn't arm rifles isn't command
doesn't detonate bombs doesn't kill
This word so naked so helpless
falls on the void and goes out into silence
neglected by all useless verb
doesn't change life doesn't improve it
Overwhelmed by the rhetoricians of vain words
dies closed in private drawers
in the damp twilight of basements
sold off on the stalls

sent in stacks to the pulp

Eyes

Crystal heart
siliceous heart
Your eyes
mysterious eyes
decided my life
I gave you my soul
and you returned me
colored threads
of many colors
skies of different structure
In your green gaze
I always dissolve myself
in shreds of thoughts

Falling stars

You can't listen
to all the speaking things
Countless are rising
the voices from earth
and raining from the immense

river of stars

Once upon a time

We have been children
often along the banks
of turbulent streams
living the world
that doesn't exist
out of the enchanted circle

of the childhood

The world in my mind

Sailing on the sea
among currents and winds
the mind flies
On our fragile vessels dancing
we sail towards a landing place
while all around us
in the sea of life

rages the storm

Mirage

Sometimes I close my eyes
a light switches on
it's a widespread flare
comes from above
from where no one knows
brings a new message
but who will understand?
Open all the doors
my beautiful lady
I'm living in a trance
at the edge of the dawn
I feel a strong wind
that takes me away
let yourself be lulled

by this glimmering ray

Goodbye

The thrill is gone, yeah
No more time for the past
Stop to memories
Dangerous old stories
Let them in the darkness
In forgetfulness
Goodbye

Beached

Where is the promised land
where the magnificent future dreamed of?
Here we arrived in the dead of night
exhausted by struggling in the high seas
As far as the eyes can see
only high mountains
and unknown valleys
