   not even have time to scream.
   I do not always remember
   my steps
   You not recognize them.

   You do not know what is loneliness
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you have not seen your mother die
   and right after your father's heartbreak.
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you have not at least once
   composed their phone number
   forgetting for a moment
   that there are more.
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you do not know what it means
   be experienced without the approval of a grandfather
   without the advice of an aunt.
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you do not know what it means
   believing they can get a hug for empathy
   and do not ever receive in life.
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you've never waited
   with the ball in hand
   a friend who will not come.
   You do not know what is loneliness
   if you've never asked Him
   what to do
   and you did not recognize His answer.

   Strawberry
   I noticed
   petite strawberry
   this morning
   on the edge of the garden.
   You were bright red
   from the shadow of the laurel
   powerful protection
   from burning thirst
   this summer sun.
   From what woods you come
   and how you survived
   I do not know.
   I have not seen in time
   that your three leaflets
   they played with rims for violin
   the harmony of the wind
   spring
   your five white petals.
   Fragraria, is your name
   old as
   your essence intense,
   uproariously
   irresistible temptation
   I already predisposes
   to taste you.
   Now your sweet taste
   flower limit yourself to the woods
   I was left in his mouth,
   only trace of you
   feeling fresh grass
   meticulous decoration
   I'll still searching
   you wild fragrance
   and as a lover
   I fall in love
   to the bitter end.

   You go
   You go slow with the weight on the shoulders
   of all that has been
   on aching feet
   on tired legs
   there is the strength of will
   to defense by the events
   you go cautious
   ready to retire
   the protective shell
   of all that has been done
   and the rest
   it does not matter at all.

   Simple song
   Return for the last time
   and listening to the voice of the wind
   I wish it were not the same
   of my youth.
   Perhaps you know it's different
   maybe you cannot make me feel lost.
   The wind takes me crying
   of a newborn abandoned
   I can feel the discomfort
   I am distressed.
   Perhaps you have a different future
   maybe you can squeeze your chest now.
   The wind takes me shreds
   of young lives betrayed
   were false guides and models
   I can hear the rancor
   between his fingers.
   Perhaps you have a different future
   maybe you can be a father now.
   The wind carries the offense on the cheek
   seems to the case the first time
   but it is repeated again
   I can feel the pain
   that does not make noise.
   Maybe you can love
   and love her the same
   maybe you can make her happy now.
   The wind brings music enhanced
   more, more, more
   I can hear laughter immoderate
   and then desperate cries.
   Maybe you can hold his hand
   maybe you can let her know
   What is a man now.
   Maybe you know that it can be different,
   maybe you'll find me.

   And let me be sure
   Ephemeral light
   chimera unsearchable
   explode in the night
   and leave me the illusion
   possible
   as my wishes
   property thoughts
   become beliefs.
   Instead it is not so
   chimera slides in the dark
   and leave me the certainty
   the impossible
   as my logic
   solid fortress
   become convention.
   ***
   30
   And then someone
   And then someone will close the door.
   It will be a slight gesture
   It will be a slow movement
   silent
   It will be the time.
