SINKING

Sinking in my heart
drinking the sorrows in my blood

diving in the eternal red
breathing the insecurity and the regret
remembering a whole life of pain
a life that I want to forget here
while I sink more and more in my chest

drowning with lost hopes
filling my lungs with memories
going mad to every second of solitude

in this endless descend
Sinking in my heart
diving more and more in the emptiness

discovering lost hopes
and torturing me more and more
enduring the pain and accepting my destiny

falling and breathing pain
as if my peace depended on that
and my death was my salvation
and the silence in the red of the blood

my only relief now save me.

                                FEAR

The situation is indeed occasional,

I suffer of a fear that is not natural

I fear the darkness that involves me at night,

the darkness that hurts me as a whip.

I live with fear of what I don't see,

of the curel darkness and its courting vile.

Fear of what I don't know,
fear of knowing of the things that I deserve.

Then I run to no where,
the fear and I became one.
Then I turn and I discover the truth,
what drives me away is my own humanity.

                 YOU GO AWAY

The clouds, going and coming
Always changing its shape
As ephemeral as dreams
I imagine, my friends
From where you come
And to where you are going
And why I feel such sadness
When I see you departing.

                        LACRIMA

Do you know what happened?
I recalled yesterday and cried,

I recalled us
and I cried my blood.
I recalled my mistakes
I felt sorry again
and I cried.
I recalled, I smiled,
I smiled of everything that was good.

But even so I cried
for all those days,
of happiness,
saddness and remorse,
to all this I cried.
I wanted you here
to wipe my tears.
