Miscellaneous
Always: The Empty Space
I let the words
Devour my secrets,
I embraced the city
And I trapped it between my fingers.
I got tired of the streets,
Of the silver lights,
I hid in the doors
In knife-like vertigo.
I opened the windows
Over divine squares,
And I closed you in my arms
Under the light of the curtains.
I dove into the abyss
From such an urgent look,
br/>And I kissed you without haste
Asking you forever.
Life is just this empty space,
A demented instant
Between the banks of a river.
A piece of time,
Of eternal lies,
A fog of people
Of small hopes.
It was then that I dreamed
That you hadn't left,
That your hands were heaven
And the nights with me.
I woke up in an embrace
Serene from you ,
And he was trapped in nothingness
That in the dream I died.
You said that the room
It slipped out of your hands,
I lost myself in fear
/>You were right.
It kills me with longing
Holds me forever...
Life is just this empty space,
A demented moment
Between the banks of a river.
A piece of time,
Of eternal lies,
A fog of people
Of small hopes.
