ANTONELLA TAMIANO

A CORNER OF HEAVEN

A dream already dreamed

it was mine.

In a corner of the sky

it was you and me.

A hands-free harp musician

performed,

a beautiful melody

A fairytale landscape

more beautiful than an aurora.

forgotten by the world

remembered by God.

Fragments of life,

of a lived history,

too far

and too close

in which,

I find myself still a child.

I loved that dream like that

close to God.

In a corner of the sky

we were him and me.

DIVERSELY YOU

You my dear friend

you're an angel,

without wings and silk robes

it's you, wonderfully special.

Your song smells like the echo of the sea,

deep and jagged.

On new notes, redesigned in your world, to caress

the ills of this time running fast,

ignoring your light.

Your smile is sweet and naive

the soul inflames me.

Your heart can perceive

only joy and simplicity

shines through your beautiful eyes.

Your thoughts flood

the cold winters of my existence.

My friend, I dreamed

to be your arms,

your legs,

to reward you for the joy you make me feel.

I feel like I'm flying when you're next to me

I will not abandon your hand.

Together, we understand each other

turning away sad moments,

instants bathed with melancholy.

In diversity, your strength

and in it my salvation,

from the immorality of life.

FRAGMENTS IN THE NIGHT

Your sighs,

the oxygen of mine

that keep me alive.

They get confused

with moon sunsets

and the good light of the stars.

These eyes contemplate you

in my sleepless nights.

Like a baby,

on the mother's lap

I watch your drowsiness.

Meanwhile, I am trying to stop time.

The present,

a memory already faded

this love is possible.

An impossible forever

draws, a utopian tomorrow.

If I can still love you,

I ask my heart

that I can not console

and leave me speechless!
