Saro Sola?

Quando avro alzato in me l’intimo fuoco

Che originava gia queste bufere

E saro salda, libera, vitale,

Allora saro sola?

 

E forse stacchero dale radici

La rimossa speranza dell’amore,

Ricordero che frutto d’ogni

Limite umano e assenza di memoria,

Tutta mi affondero nel divenire…

 

Ma fino a che io tremo del principio

Cui la tua mano mi inizio da ieri,

Ogni attributo vivo che mi preme

Giace incomposto nelle tue misure.

Alda Merini

Soon

I’m lost here without you,Sleeping in a bed that feels cold,
Empty.  My mind still thinks your there,
and I grab for your body without thinking.

Waiting, is the only thing I can focus on.

Soon.  My heart is still beating so passionately,
intensely, distraught by the separation.  If even brief.

WanderingHere, through life.
Sometimes it feels like a big puzzle.
Piece by piece,
I put it together.

Lately,
The most important piece,
The hinge,
The part that all other attach
Has been located.

This is good news friends.
Good news indeed.

Because she is the final piece to the puzzle.
