Song of the Lost Light
Lines written meditating upon Stolen Beauty, the movie directed by Bernardo Bertolouchi
I penetrate into the depth of the silence forcefully
And witness the drops of death dropping on my shoulders heavily
Like a rainbow of a long lost tomb they gather in the sky
All the gray colors of that night.
Sick beyond words I wake up every time
And find myself among the clichés of snoring clouds
Murmuring some dreams of their own life to each other and laugh
- All gathering there, in the sky I witness.
Sleep walker as I am pass all the naughty chambers of the lost poems
And not lost – not this time
When the flowers all bloomed in the dooryard forever
And song would sing in heart for you and me
All in that time, in that dream I witness.
Her skin was white and lips was tempting
To my sight of all ever lost wishes of completeness I thought
And it was she and all the things of Love
All gathered to punish my laziness of making sight.
All in that dream I gained, I forgot.
And I lost.
O silence, let me sing, sing for one more time.
