F a l l a s l e e p: |
|
Night resonance recedes |
|
(I regret that I have not really |
|
Understood any thing, not a single |
|
Object and that no man ever can, |
|
The fascinating waltz of nature here |
|
In sight of the sea taking advantage |
|
Of me to dart upon me and sting me, |
|
Because I've dared to open my mouth |
|
To sing at all) |
|
I nearly die of all the beauty |
|
S l e e p : a f a l l |
|
Fragments tearing asunder, |
|
Elements of my mind |
|
Echoes lost in purple smoke |
|
Like visions in eclipse |
|
Elements tearing asunder, |
|
Fragments of my mind |
|
Visions lost in purple smoke |
|
Like echoes in eclipse |
|
Sleep took me by the brow and laid me |
|
Back. then, down in a flood of remembrance |
|
I remembered her sea-reflecting eyes, |
|
The eyes-reflecting sea and all the |
|
Resounding things in between. |
|
I tryed to listen in awe but... |
|
For a moment, like a wavering spark, |
|
BLOOD |
|
Her face laid there before my breast, |
|
Pale love lost in the winds of september |
|
Guarded by glittering tears and lips apart |
|
With dumb cries... |
|
TEARS |
|
A supreme moment, like an indolent sigh, |
|
A memorized experience of tomorrow? |
|
Or just a dark figment of my imagination? |
|
I'm unsure. |
|
...sane, but in a way dimorphously risking |
|
Absurdity I looked into the mirrors, again |
|
And again, caught as in a nightmare, |
|
Or did they look on me? |
|
I don't know but that's rather ominous, |
|
Something happened... |
|
In her looking-glass my lips part as though |
|
I wanted to speak |
|
A strange labyrinth, ways on all sides, |
|
But how shall I turn? |
|
Seasons changed with my confidence... |
|
...a fine wind blew the new direction of time |
|
Time, that is watching from the shadows |
|
SHADOWS |
|
I wonder who I am. |
|
I don't know and swoon away with consternation |
|
Clatter in my ears and a face in my mind |
|
That puts a blame on me |
|
I don't understand, loosing myself again |
|
Nevertheless I can't let this fall into oblivion... |
|
A deep breath and that vast hunger for |
|
Everything beyond us |
|
Help me to follow you, a phantom still |
|
I walk on, as if out of my own young life, |
|
As if escaping into another dream, |
|
Another life, another me |
|
I seem to drift away like the waters |
|
And I don't know what I am going to be) |
|
Do what we will |
|
Our hasty minutes fly |
|
And while we sleep |
|
What do we else but die |
|
All these joys |
|
How short their day |
|
They creep on towards us |
|
But fly away |
|
I wake to what is real and not a dream |
|
I dream of what is real and |
|
Wake to what's no dream |
|
I wake to what is dream and |
|
What's not real |
|
I dream of what is real and |
|
Wake to what is dream |
