To Lydia

You are my morning
my day
my evening, my night, my dear

How could I possibly, with the mere usage of words known to Man, describe
The blessing of the colurs of that dawn, that paints the sky?
The joy and the glory of that Sun that shines,
as you shine and make me shine
inside
every day and the day after
all days to come
The evening with its deep blue,
slowly and pleasently, with that silent wind,
carrassing my soul, while I listen to the serenity,
the slow movement of a tortoise,
a symbol of time,
drawing a cirle in empty space —
the conclusion that nothing comes out of nothing
and that eternity is yet another infinite illusion

And The Night, oh the night, imagining a night in an endless row
of nights,
travelling along an autostrada, with stars of gazing wonder,
lined up as our journey evolves, inspiring hope and stillness,
trust, oh, trust,
into that distant destination that is our destiny —
starlight that leads us beyond, as confidence arises,
in heart, in soul,
beyond, ad astra, ad ultra astra, and even further away,
ad astra et planetaria et ad aeternum, ad, that is, towards and beyond,
that zizzely-zizzeling-ziz-zaz sound,
when they twinkle, them stars, and gleam,
just as you do, you sparkling being, you beautiful soul, —
just as that wonderful glimpse in your eye

Ah, and as you close your eyes
And I, close mine
And then,
at the exact time, and moment,
simultaneously,
as we open them, our eyes
and see into each other —
our endless depths

...

did i say, no words were to describe? yet, i just used the most poetically words to describe! oh, the contradictions: how I have always contradicted myself, since that very first time that I met you
you, oh you,
my dearest, my only comfort, my fortune and love
yes, love
and when all words suddenly fade away and vanish
only the silence remains
and that is the space where only truth can be
our truth
as we see
and agree
and know

That you and I —
that we —
are one

And that this Moment,
our moment,
That.

This moment does not exist. It is eternal.
