Can you hear my soul speak

Can you hear my soul speak
Is yours in tune with mine
Do you feel the same connection
That so often feels divine
Do I walk along a lonely path
On this road of plans and schemes
Or do we journey on together
With kindred hopes and dreams
Can you hear my heart speak
Hear the words of love I hide
Deep beneath my sultry skin
I wish they'd make their way outside
So you might hear the truth
In a world so full of lies
As I brought those words to life
You could look into my eyes
I long to let you know
How I really feel
At night the words upon my tongue
In daylight seem unreal
I wish that I could let you
See behind the shades I wear
I'm sure you'd feel so comfortable
With the woman behind there
Some people seem just like a book
So open true and pure
At times you seem unreadable
As though hide behind a door
That you refuse to open
To avoid a brand new start
Sometimes it makes me wonder
If she still has your heart
I wish you could read my body
And the subtle signs I send
How it says so silently
I wish you weren't a friend
But a lover to me
Filled to the brim with wild desire
How I wish you'd take the matches
And just relight my fire
I wish that you could read me
That you could peruse my mind
Of all the unsaid sentences
Because what a tale you'd find
A romance so full of twists and turns
About a sailor on loves seas
A novel with the power
To bring you to your knees

The turbulent sea and the fisherman

Image
In the gentle and pleasant bosom of the vast nature The mighty and devouring sea is defiant and turbulent in stature, on this day the continuous flamboyant waves are extremely angry And the people are afraid of such fury. Far away in the deep The fishermen are thinking about their fate, As they are listening the waves' threat; They know they may come back or not, This is always the gravest thought, But this is not the horror of a day Year after year there is no ray.

Ode all’allegria: una poesia di Pablo Neruda

Image
Oggi ti invoco, allegria. Come la terra sei necessaria. Come il fuoco sostieni i focolari. Come il pane sei pura. Come l’acqua d’un fiume sei sonora. Come un’ape Distribuisci miele volando. Allegria, fui un giovane taciturno, credetti che la tua chioma fosse scandalosa. Non era vero, me ne resi conto quando sul mio petto essa si sciolse in cascata. Oggi allegria, incontrata per strada, lontano da ogni libro, accompagnami. Con te voglio andare di casa in casa, voglio andare di gente in gente, di bandiera in bandiera. Tu non appartieni soltanto a me, Andremo sulle isole, sui mari. Andremo nelle miniere, nei boschi. E non soltanto boscaioli solitari, povere lavandaie o spigolosi, augusti tagliapietre, mi riceveranno con i tuoi grappoli, ma i congregati, i riuniti, i sindacati del mare o del legno, i valorosi ragazzi nella loro lotta. Con te per il mondo! Con il mio canto! Con il volo socchiuso della stella, e con la gioia del...

I like for you to be still ......

I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent, and you hear me from far away and my voice does not touch you. It seems as though your eyes had flown away and it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth. As all things are filled with my soul you emerge from the things, filled with my soul. You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream, and you are like the word Melancholy. I like for you to be still and you seem far away. It sounds as though you were lamenting, a butterly cooing like a dove. And you hear me from far away, and my voice does not reach you: Let me come down to be still in your silence. And let me talk to you with your silence that is bright as a lamp, simple as a ring. You are like the night, with its stillness and constellations. Your silence is that of a star, as remote and candid. I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent, distant and full of sorrow as though you had died. One word then, one smile, is enough. And I...
