Life

"Life,
life is the most enchanting gift you have"
you said to me when I was crying
and I felt your embrace
hearing your sweet voice
and soon my tears were dried out from my eyes.

In moments of deep uncertainty sometimes
you asked me to be your confidant
and I saw your face
smiling back at me,
your genuine and loving way of caring.

How can you feel
when there's nothing within
the clearest of your dreams?
You've been misled,
so wake up, wake up my friend!

Born in times of distress
you quickly grew up,
found your love so young, so adored;
spent your days making plans,
untiring and bright,
hoping for a chance for your family.

No wish fulfilled but no regrets at all,
no way to escape from your last intent.

How can I feel
when there's nothing I own
to comprehend your world?
Now I feel weaker,
so help me, help me my dear!

Waiting for sleep
I close my eyes and whisper to you,
as I call your name I draw relief
and it seems you're here again,
I can hold your hands in mine.
Listen to me, I'll let you know
how I fear to lose my memories,
how I miss you... I miss you so much!
