Echoes from a sad soul

Please keep on singing

 

Tie me like Ulysses,

I don’t want

 run to death

hearing those songs!

Bind me Lord!

But you keep on singing!

The sins are not yours

for the shores I crave

or the eyes I seek

or the thrills of my restless soul!

I beg you to keep on singing.

Echoes from a sad soul




https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0C97786DX

I wish I could

I wish I could hear

the love songs

closed inside the drawers

of unexpressed,

misunderstood hearts

I would palpitate

for those caresses

never given,

never had

for those sighs

which shake the soul

like waves

of restless sea.

I wish I could cover the earth

with my cloak of love

to protect fearful

and uncertain souls.

Echoes from a sad soul

 

The Star full of  of love

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07JL32VL5

 

I woke up one morning

and there was a star in the sky

I followed that star

all around the world

I was searching for love

and when I found myself

on the starting place,

after twenty five million miles,

I realized that love was inside of me.

That star was a star full of love.

Nostalgia Time

If we could go back in time

Who wouldn’t tighten to his strong chest

The young mother of good old days?

And who would not follow

the unheard advices

by old good father?

Ah, if we could go back

to those pink lips sighing

Dreams still far from coming!

But while it is true that we are traveling

To the homeland we departed from

that day we were born on earth,

then we better keep on struggling

that road that leads to Superior Mount

 with prayers and courage!

Another trip for  Mr Shadow

I

It’s very hard to live my own life

Fighting against the inhibitions,

the limits, the taboos of my own time!

 

It’s really very hard to cancel my personal history,

chopping off every bond with my past!

 

It’s hard to change the idea

We have of ourselves,

forgetting   what  the others

believe   to know of  us!

 

And it’s hard again to change

Our idea of  the life,

seeking for trust,

not in the eyes of the other people,

but in the deep eye of our being.

 

II

It’s hard for me to proceed

Through this path of loneliness,

hoping to undertake one day

my trip to Ixtlan,

to bathe me in the sacred river,

to purify me of all my sins,

and  understand the mysteries of life,

smelling the magic flower,

to reach the eternal safety,

the apex of   knowledge,

the heaven of the ever green city  

where the seven gold doors

 will finally open their secrets!

 

And the soul will fly for ever

Through the endless worlds

Of the universe

Echoes from a sad soul

 


That’s my song

 

First time

I dreamed the Major Thirteen

was just over sixty

falling down to sea

With no parachute.

Before  splatting the water

I asked the wind

To appease my drop:

So did the wind.

Then I started singing.

Say the fishermen

Along the Cornwall coast

If they hear a song

At windy full moon nights.

That’s might be my song.

Songs for Elem

Ain’t that love?

 

My love was desperation

Because around me

It was all emptiness,

And I just needed 

A  heart beating for me

To fill my longing to love!

 

But  is it love?

 

If our  fate

has brought us here together

Oh Elem

And I have seen on you

The end of  loneliness

When  counting down

the minutes between us

And if  I pained   leaving

rejoiced coinciding

staring at any people

  

Searching of you

And if I  winced up 

At any resembling  shadow

And you were become a master

of my any single dream

 devoured by anxiety  

and I didn’t feel  hunger nor thirst

 

And every single thought, 

Every single word,

Every single thing

Every single person

were you

 

Isn’t that love?

Please pray for me

In death of John Paul the Second

Those shots

the 13th may 1981

at St Peter Sq

saw me 

cold witness of time

but I cried for you

later on 

when I saw you

trembling under the weight

of your Cross;

please pray for me

among the Angels

your existing is the brightest

proof of God's existence!

The Ballad of my mysterious love

I

I 've never loved,

   since loved me never

the women I loved

and I didn't love

those who tried to love me!

II

I firstly pursued

Impossible loves,

and when the overwhelming body

 forced me to love,

then I loved,

but it was not love;

 it  surely was 

sweet discovery of pleasure,

flesh into flesh, fire with fire,

fury subsided into the abyss of life;

but it was not love.


III

Neither was love

the spasm  I waited for

to see the air colored  

by your forms,

when it was enough for me

to feel your presence

ethereal and impalpable,

although present,

yet not mine;

and it was not love.

IV

I'm still in search of you, 

sublime, decanted love.

Who are you, 

fleeting present of God?

Are you for all of us or just for a few?

Do you really exist?

Are you a catcher of  hearts 

or a trap of reason?

Are you real or unreal?

Liar or truthful?

  

V

Still I'm seeking of you,

poignant love,

unveiled eyes,

flying mate,

slave and mistress,

mother and lover,

mystery of life!

Then came a Man

 

I remember when,

at the winter solstice,

 we danced under the stars

to propitiate the favor of the gods!

Then came a man,

the son of the Only true God!

I still look at the sky above me

when the stars assemble together in December!

 But now I know whom to pray

for the weaknesses of humanity,

and I know whom to thank

for the beauty of the world!
