Description
I did touch
loneliness,
or it might be She touched me instead,
tanglin me up in her embrace...
It's like she went here
to block and dry my blood within,
and now I feel so cold,
in and out this thick skin.
People who won't ask a thing,
because they did already accept
someone else's reasons in it,
are haunting me and say
those who leave go to the joy,
and that should be our peace
inside and out to rest and stay...
But all I see is pain,
questions nobody can solve
trash souls whom were happy one back day...
and then a raging why surfaces,
afraid and unable to make anything right,
and then I just look out to get
why words remains just themselves,
why do they stay so senseless,
ethereally fading away...
Those who leave leave to the joy...
Go and tell it to the one who stands
awkwardly bashed by speed of time...
Go and tell it to the one whom used to hope
in some present justice,
go and face the one whose hand
will never reach again
the shape of a loving man...
I'm over this hill
rushed by windy caress
from Winterly Sir:
and I find no peace
in any of these myths...
But watchin still
towards the one that still rise
although he's breakin inside,
I feel like wishing them to believe
in that sense I just can't perceive...
I wish that those who left
can get him back
all of the gone hopes, and life and all that
they wish to feel touched by again.
I did touch Death onto this unmoving hill:
and She did also touch me.
I wonder who you are,
you seem to have no plans...
You seem to not confide
your razor will erase the broken bones...
You have put onto so young shoulders
decades,
while sometimes you let badness
ruling all of our ways...
And still this empty hill
frozen by the wind
it's gonna rebirth...
And we are gonna remain
unconscious,
afraid...
here wondering why,
here answering ourselves by...
and here we're gonna still stay,
feeling so small,
feeling so bound to be break,
and always unaccepting what we should just take:
what we can't avoid to be...
In this slow game of the seasons,
the only things that change
is our illusion to be ready to make anything
and breathe...
but then why, why, why...
like flowers too beautiful
these illusions will
be flowering all over and over again?
Glittering my mind and heart again?
Again? Again...again?

Hi back...:)
I wasn't intentioned to come here before the end of September, but as time of holiday leaving approached (I leave in the weekend to Canary Islands) I felt it would have been fair to share a bit of what has been up in my heart lately.
Life goes well, work is fine and the activity at volunteer centre with the kids has been a fantastic experience that i hope to renew in the Fall.
But since life can't be perfect, the dark shades of terrorisms have strongly affected me.
This is what I wrote on the eve of London's attacks.
Everyone who knows me knows that town is dear to my heart... and the people in there.
But I am not gonna bend to hate, and I am not gonna resign to fear.
This is the message I thought it was right to share with you all.
I'll be back consistently (or more consistently) here around the end of September.
Miss you all, and I wish everybody good August holidays.
Hugs&kisses, Meli :)

I like the style of this wonderful collage... like an old newspaper. Enjoy your holiday on the Canary Islands, dear, and be back safe and sound! Waiting for your return! huge hugz
Feeling the whirlwind of a dark force in ordinary pursuits hurls one against the sharp corner of a freezer. Surprised one looks and finds a deep bruise and the skin broken, torn and ripped. Blood is oozing as from a broken forehead. The white pearly sheen of a bursa covering a joint shows. Thee is no path beyond what has been flown. The ditches are littered with those trying to run ahead or to pass with more prominent causes. I had a Canary Islands pine in front of my house. It was so bright green with feathery needles. I loved it when it brushed me as I watered it's roots.
bellissimo lavoro, molto ben fatto. adoro lo stile un pretrda giornalistica anni '30. non so, almeno mi dquasta sensazione. e il gioco speculare nel quale si perdono le parole come voci e suoni di ricordi indistinti. mi piace molto. eccellente!

Ci ho messo un po' a ritrovarti, ma come vedi niente perdo che il tuo cuore canti, nemmeno quando l'ode ha il carattere dell'elegia. Come sempre, tutto di te suona devoto alla vita, anche quando rifletti sulla morte. E' un lavoro magnifico.
very impressive and thoughtful work! ;o)))
