The Confessions Of A Concubine

sweetly relaxed,

ineffectual

like all the hours

that separate me from you.

And I stretch out, sleepily,

with your dream chasing me,

indelible is the belonging

that tears me apart.

And I hold you close with memories to comerelentlessly

to live you ten, a hundred, a thousand times.

Wherever your breath is.

Discoveries

Secrets never uttered

words hidden

behind

candid attitudes

unsavory thoughts.

Long hours

chasing each other

elusive moments

of superficial contact

avid

of unspeakable thoughts.

Forbidden thoughts.

Dry mouth.

The scarlet notebook was meeting my pen more and more often.

Go away

go away from me

go away from my heart

heart beating with emotions

unspeakable memories

Go away

Go away

get far away from my hands

that can no longer reach you

touch you like warm water

like fragrant breeze

at dawn.

Go away from me.

Far away.

So that my eyes

can only glimpse you

indistinct

so that I can

chase you,

gain ground,

and join you,

nearby.

And my meetings with Pietro became more and more frequent.
