Like love

Like love

I haven’t got sand in my hands

My skin isn’t chapped;

Instead of the pass of years

I’ve been loved;

Instead of grey hair

I’ve got my heart undone.

You won’t see wrinkles in my face

Because I’m falling off inside;

You can realise in my eyes

Deep on them

An abyss growing;

You may touch me

And feel my body shaking;

But I’m not afraid of anything

It was just a squall

That came from somewhere (nowhere?).

Have you felt that too?

The wind flowing wherever you are

Penetrating your veins

Making your stomach feel empty.

Venerate it, breath that new air

Put it in a place

Where you can always remember it.

Keep it, not for yourself

But for that person that brings you

For the first time,

The fly of a butterfly,

The rise of the sun,

The moon in the night,

The sea with no end.

Now that you’ve seen it

Can you tell me what it is?

Now that you’ve felt it

Can you tell me what is it like?

Don’t put it in words

Show me an expression,

Don’t explain me a thought

Let me be like you for a while

For a little while,

Let me be in love once again

So I can sleep full up

Like if I were eating the whole world.
