Blue Whispers

Freezing raindrops

Pour hasty voices

Over my body,

leaving behind

Fragmented unfinished moments,

In the dense night of my foliages.

Amber lights crystallize

Wet cobblestones.

Faint breeze throbs tactile words

In ragweed of your lips.

The wind impels

Among its branches

Lost – found longings

Inside the indigo ink of your gaze,

As silent opacity shimmer flashes

Delimit folds of the shining water

Running down my cheeks.

Should I hear the breeze pronounce your name?

Blue whispers articulate

Songs of the stones.

Pierced transparencies dissolve desires,

As melts the stone with the fire

And the sea on the horizon.

Deserted Voices

Cornered breeze

Bursting over

Mosses’ silence.

I need to flood and evaporate

Chimeras

In rugged islands.

Silence salty gates

That incinerate my throat,

Nod to water

Disdaining

Its inherent name.

Deserted voices

Sway seconds

Upon the lividness

Of windy branches,

Where clouds

Lack power.

The rain is an allusion

Of green stars,

Ashes are raining

Scorching skylines,

Usurping my voice

In stony

Dust clouds.

Does the air induce scars?

I hear your singular skin

Darkness of glacial fog

Sketching my roots.

Wounded petals fading away

Wings of swallows.

Ether fragments the sobs.

They grow and decline,

Cypresses

Like snowy jasper,

Smithereens of days…

While the moon shines above us.

Nocturnal Kaleidoscope

In the middle of the battle

Between good and evil,

Gradually days and nights go by

At a perennial interval.

Trills of sparrows drown

Polyphonic noises,

In the chaos of memory

And oblivion.

Taciturn windows

Frugal hope,

Glimpse dreamlike flashes

Of the longed for autonomy.

When we will be released from captivity?

Will we able to rise up above prohibitions?

We are perfect – imperfect,

Radiant beings of light

In awakening

Towards ascension

Of consciousness.

Gaia is gestating

Her luminous lap,

Wrapping us in her mantle of stars,

Aromatic roots,

Mint essences and wet grounds;

Transiting the exodus to another dimension.

Where there will be no more mental prisons,

No tricks, no more masks,

No fear or insecurities.

While incorporeal - ethereal

We radiate

Auric incandescence

Throught

My nocturnal kaleidoscope.
