Where are the birds?



The view from my room is so dead,
I don't hear the birds singing anymore.
I haven't heard your voice, your laughter
Neither our music.

Your silence tortures me,
Oh, it is my worst enemy.
I need to touch you and get an answer.
I need the song of the birds.

Little flyers, sing again.
Sing joyfully in favor of love,
But don't forget my home.
I'll be right here waiting.

Fly freely,
but come back to my window
just for a little love.
Where are you, birds?

Enlightening you

I lay in my mesh
and din't see the time pass,
looking at the stars
reminds me of you

Everything will be different tomorrow,
time won't wait for me,
my curtains will be open
unless I let them closed

Thus, the sunlight won't enter
in my room, neither in my eyes,
nor in the depths of my soul,
where you reside

But for a moment I thought
about enlightening you with that kind of light,
or just with an unknown light,
the light of my great love

Sun and moon


Gypsies had forgotten the town,
then people got scared so easily
the world seemed to be ending,
Were the moon and the sun really kissing?

It wasn't fireworks,
it was the flames of the hell that you created
And if I were the real creator
Who could know?

Don't let your dreams fall from cliff
as simple loose stones.
Don't lose your consience nor the reason,
just keep walking with me.

Let the world crack and everyone aside
Just don't leave me, don't let love end.
Don't forget that we are still here.
Please, do not forget the sun and the moon.

Forgetfulness

I guess I had forgotten to live, to wake up in the morning and smile, even though I know that waking up early is very annoying. I had completely forgotten how it was like to feel the sea breeze and take a deep breath, feel the peace, feel that nothing else matters but that moment.
I had forgotten that there are good and sincere people, that some people are there to let you down and others to make you go to heaven, some people can give you many punches in the face and others may give you affection and good advice.
I had forgotten that we have a beautiful world out there while I'm crying in my room, there are places I can't even imagine now. I had forgotten that my greatest promise may be my own worst punishment, that my greatest love can be a big pain, but can also be the reason of happier days, days less lonely.
I had forgotten to interpret my dreams and I left them aside, even though they frighten me so much. I had forgotten that life does not need our questions, she just wants us to live intensely while things are going and leaving us behind.
I had forgotten so many things, and I admit I only remember a few at the moment.
Once I managed to forget who I am and why I'm still here. Then I've decided to forget only one thing in this life, to forget about asking so many questions unanswered.

Berries and marshmallows

I'm patient and I know you wait for me
You do it for me and I'm thankful
You know things aren't easy
They just are as they are

Your eyes that look like berries
are my comfort, and I don't scare anymore
when you say my mounth
tastes like marshmallow

But I'm afraid,
when you say that I'm perfect
and that I'm all you need now,
I don't even know really who I am

I do not want to leave you,
I know I shouldn't, even with my fears,
my pride
and my stupidities

You're special,
and it won't go away,
this is just an old letter
that will probably be here around my way.
