We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race… And the human race is full of passion. Medicine, law, economics, engineering are noble professions, necessary to our sustenance. But poetry, beauty, romance and love keep us alive.
In fact when we read a poem, everything is transformed into emotions. The poet, through his lines, transmits various feelings: love , passion, affection, pain, fear, hate, peace and solitude to the reader.
Through the poem, he finds a way to escape reality and takes refuge in his imagination, giving voice to his fantasies.

My only thought

You love me, so I’m fond of your nice face
I think of you all the time and all  night
When I see you I feel your grace
There is a special  magic light

The night will cry, because now I have
The most beautiful star of the sky
Also Venus, may you’re born by a wave
If I miss you I’ll always cry

When you’re not with me you’re my only thought
And when you are with me I’m out of mind
My love is a thing that you haven’t bought
Your soul is the gold that  will ever find

When you’re with me I don’t think at the rest
My love’s scream is in the north, south, east, and west.

Passion and pain.

I want to find your eyes in my way
Like a magic and fair queen, please come on
I need you for tonight and you should stay
Near to me here, don’t leave me alone.
 
I’m involved from a great fire storm
And here I’m searching your fragile heart
But I’m linked to my frights, my warm!
And I’m trembling in this lonely heart
 
Every time we touch I feel a feeling
Such as a spark that kindles a shy flame
And the soft voice of the moon is singing
And reminds  me the weight of my blame.
 
Please don’t forget these words, ‘cause I always
Remember you, during my days.

Taunt the king!

Once upon a time there was a rude king
An ugly man who loved lots of new clothes
He although had a dress for every thing
Nothing imported except his news clothes
 
And yet he didn’t find satisfaction
The tailor was really despaired
And he gave to the king a new invention
A dress, the colour and form varied
 
But it revealed who he was really
And the new dress became invisible
Only for people stupid and silly
So the body of the king was horrible
 
For this reason people taunted the king
For the shame he escaped with all things.

Twin souls

This is a story about me and you
A feeling without time, one great love
Infinity and free and true, like few.
We are twin souls that share the same love.
 
Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore
I like feeling each move and sign you make
When I see you I am full of love more
A great love that I can not forsake.
 
You are a very amazing person
And without you I don’t know where I’d be
Have in my life a very person
Completes and finds part of me.
 
You made me fly like a butterfly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky

Love at midnight

Do you remember the diffused light
Which far stars spread in your beautiful eyes?
I remember the smell of midnight
And your deep silence in the first time.
 
You discovered me and drew from darkness.
And now you can draw the love in my heart.
Since I’ve met you, I’ve seen the happiness.
Since I’ve met you, I’ve lived out of this earth.
 
Please, you take me to  infinity.
Tell me another word for explaining
What thinks this beautiful eternity,
We are like a gust of wind passing,  fleeing.
 
Because you won’t remain forever young,
I can only tell this story which I had sung.

Sweet friends

Your friendship signifies so much for me
And you lift me up when I am down.
Through my pain it is clear to see
That you diffuse sweetness all around.
 
You can lift me up when I’m down,
With comfortable words dry my tears,
You render me happy when I frown,
Our friendship will continue many years.
 
Your friendship gives me a  feeling
When we meet my heart is full of love
And only you know what it is meaning,
Our friendship flies away like a dove.
 
I really thank the god on bended knee:
Your friendship signifies so much for me.

The sense of life

When we talk about our feelings and thoughts,
When we love delight and pain together
When we share loves, passions, acts and clothes,
We share all parts of our life forever.
 
The life is beautiful, but solitude
Destroys it. Have you with Him to moon gone?
He helps you, he has the same attitude,
He is a fantastic brother well done!
 
Close friends live forever in your heart,
Other friends find you for their interest.
And after there are friends who met on earth
And who give us hot like the sun from the east.
 
 
If you want to find a sense for this life,
Understand that friend is better than wife.
