I Love Life
— PROSA POÉTICA by
Silla M. Campanini
___________
The world weeps with indifference; struggles with fear in the night of silence. Strength is needed in adversity; in facing detachment and emptiness; and the heart does not find solace. Also, the depth of the sea resounds with tears; and the solitary road with silence; embracing the time of regret.
And, pride has dark and noisy hues; revealing shadows of error.
Thoughtful and attentive; I approach the delicate theme of existence. Thoughts turn and twist; shaping the blossoming of the mind that the artist paints in the tapestry; so that all voices whisper words.
In life, one rejoices in persuasive voices; and in desolate beaches of thoughts and memories. Clear, fresh, and joyful thoughts open to love; to the rising dawn; to its awakening in rest.
So, the soul lights up and the piano plays the triumph of the immense; of love over hate; and nature celebrates nameless joy.
Small kindnesses and vibrant tendernesses whisper to hearts; touches that nourish the tale of expressive souls; intertwined by destinies and hopes; like a ritual of losing oneself to find oneself in the embrace of poetry.
I penetrate my sanctuary. Thought soars; in the stirring of the heart and in the smile.
I love to travel; dance; study. I love life.
