ELISA MASCIA

 


ELISA MASCIA

 

It Is Not Enough

 

It is never enough to give, of what you have,

the best to the recipient

and he always sees little or nothing at all.

It is not enough to repeat sincere words

to express unique feelings

that are born,

continue to grow,

with dedication and daily care.

It is not enough to pay attention

and give priority in all respects to only one person

that you consider above and never like any other.

It is not enough to write rivers of poetic words and thoughts

that flow night and say from the soul to the sheet, inexhaustible ink borrowed even from the blue of the ocean

and from the indelible transparency,

hidden and secret of tears

that, more and more often,

they accompany and flavor the sweetness of many moments with bitterness.

It is not enough to breathe its perfume

that soaks the soul every moment and remembers that only one is the gaze that mirrors itself inside.

Emits joy from the clear,

faded eye color,

repeatedly washed by the salty taste of tears that sometimes frees

others, impregnated,

of happy emotion and often of misunderstandings and unfounded concepts of apparent convictions.

It is not enough to build the golden castle of dreams day by day, but what is more difficult is the maintenance

made of complicity and embraces of minds, of two souls in one,

as it was from the beginning with patience as a delicate rose, resistant with a few drops of dew

to file the prickles of thorns

that we already know how much harm they cause.

It is not enough to say I love you a thousand times,

the greatest value that is never enough is to answer those who love you to accept all the infinite affirmations that need to be confirmed by the other half in order not to make the soul of the universe hang in the balance.


 

Moments

 

I breathe your thought of love,

vital scent of dark moments

that do not obscure your soul enveloped by the fresh aroma that I feel persistent and strong, bursting is reflected in a mirror of swirling murky waters,

opposition intent in the attack to end a feeling tied to the double red thread at distance.

Will resist intact,

it will not bow to the will of occult forces that struggle when there is great love

and they cannot bear the happiness of others.

Attempts to annihilate.

Nothing is given away

and they must earn that joy,

sweat seven shirts until a day

in which they will be victorious not defeated.

 


It Is Insatiable

 

Fill hunger for feelings

to sip during the double nights

and the days when,

superimposed night hours,

is a call to continue that dream,

not interrupted,

that passes the tireless mutual baton.

Together to nourish and then, separated with care, to take to heart every little moment and to caress every desire so that it becomes real.

You, the master,

in directing the car of the carousel to avoid collisions

and repair from a spark that the wind blowing on it wants to consume.

You, the master who protects and caresses at the right time,

of profuse commitment to remain linked by the little finger that holds that red thread of union tightly

and index fingers pointing in the same direction.

It is insatiable to welcome every word that disarms,

it heals the soul and favors the encounter.

Word always perpetuates not only sentiment but transcendent spirituality,

prerogative of elected representatives,

of those who know the gratitude to the God of man who needs more and more signs

and to believe in human love as a gift from him.
