Farewell To the Never Found
I
I see you wearing your green hijab.
Looking mysterious as the desert under the red sun
And I start to tremble with joy. If you only knew…
As you walked near me, I smell roses under the morning rain
and this heart jumps breathlessly on my chest.
Why did you divert your big cat eyes towards me?
it looks they say without saying
as words born from the freshness of your mouth.
there’s a lesson I’ve got to learn
I turn pathetic when I’m at your side
I want to explain this mystery to myself
but I feel powerless
II
You have blinded me, you only
Pretty flower from the golden
Sahara whose beauty overshadows all flowers
around you, I start to search inside the darkness
of not having you until I have to ask
myself, between the turmoil, what have you done
to keep my heart bleeding, slashed in pieces
by the fears who turn us apart
If only we could know us each other, deeper
I’m blind by you, only you
Oh, subtle wind from the blue Mediterranean
See my despair silently suffers
Awaiting to keep seven salty tears from falling
over my empty hands waiting to collect
the joy of having your passion
That will be turned into reality by you only
and God
And I kneel to the mighty
And beg
beg
beg
All day long
In each day of the month
For the woman in love to come
III
Run to my open arms they will protect you
Come if you’re lonely
Come if you’re hated
Come if you’re persecuted
Come if you’re sick
Come if you’re disabled
Run to my open arms they will protect you
I will light your soul
I will shield you
I will fight on your side
I will heal the wounds from your body
I will free you from all obstacles
Run to my open arms they will protect you
Feel free to come as you are
I will wait for you as long light’s on
IV
Give me those hands where the truth lies
Show me the path to fulfil us
Two by one only, together
Inside both mind and body
What has not happened does not get old
No one
Had
loved you
More Than
I do
V
Forgive me
If I saw a future where there was nothing to be seen,
I saw a castle where only a pit lies.
Forgive me if
I was confused,
said unintelligible words, phrases without shape.
Forgive me if I
Became selfish and betray your friendship.
You can tell everybody about me if you see me lost
and miserable
but have compassion for the truth that remains
