Life!
Francesco Favetta
Life tell me
how many times have you come
near the dark
and then by the sudden jousts
your voice still sang
without stopping in the wind
and when you swallow poisons
you are always reborn again.
Precious life
beautiful portrait
sleepless awakening in the heart
you my life
tree with deep roots
often on your lips
the song of love
it was the most beautiful music.
Life without skin
next to your wounds
my every smile was
the blood response
mine getting bigger
the arduous happy song
the divine Comedy
that faithful warrior heart of mine.
My life
how many more steps
within this time
in the folds of the days
along the journey of Faith
in this sea
that never stops
in the routes of the beloved song.
