POETRY
Flying Together
—POEM by Elisa Mascia
(Translated from Italian)
In
the free flight of the two of us,
I
realize that your wing it broke,
And
you are no longer near as always,
Sometimes ready you
fixed it.
Instead,
you remain still, distracted by illusions,
Which
I know well,
They cannot be
confused with love.
Insist.
You stay on the
ground.
From
afar,
I
stay and watch for a while,
I await your return.
It’s
just for a quick hello,
I
understand that they are not priorities,
Of presence, care and
attention.
I
look at the sun,
Today
is splendid,
Can’t
rain on me,
Then I smile and
wait.
Who
knows you’ll soon be able to repair the wing,
And together go back
to flying.
Who
knows the flight in two will resume,
Happy,
Without any
alteration.
With
spread wings towards the future,
Of
your promised “Forever”
Maybe!!!
….
