BUTTERFLIES

YOU COME INTO THE LIFE
YOUR SPIRIT FLOW INTO THE LIGHT
A FLY FLIES
BUTTERFLIES COME FROM THE EARTH
IT' S WARM
MANY INSECTS FLY AND RUN
RAIN
YOUR EYES ARE DEATH
YOUR FACE IS A BIG DARKNESS
YOU DON'T COME AGAIN
YOU MOVE
YOU ARE NOT SAD
YOU ARE NOT HAPPY
YOU ARE JUST A BODY
WITH SUCH A KIND OF MEMORY
WHY DID YOU FLY SO LONG?
YOU DON'T COME

SO HIGH
SO FAR AWAY
SO FULL OF EMPTY
I WOULD LIKE TO TOUCH YOUR EYES FOR A LITTLE MOMENT
BUT YOU ARE AWAY
I CAN'T LISTEN YOUR LAUGH
I CAN'T LISTEN YOUR CRY
YOU ARE NOT ANYMORE HERE
BUT I REMEMBER YOU
AND IF I REMEMBER YOU DIDN'T DIE
I CRY IN A VERY BIG SILENCE
I TOUCH YOUR SHADOW AND I REMEMBER YOUR LIGHT
BUT IT'S ONLY A REMEMBER
SHUT UP, I TELL TO MYSELF
IT'S RAINING AND I'VE TO LISTEN THE STORM
