Wings

The evening is gray and fresh
The petals of the flowers of the apricot
falls because of the soft touch of the sprinkle.

The moist grass becomes
a pillow of cold silk and my back
leans on against the gnarled and strong trunk.

With the eyes closed,
I raise my face toward the clouds
I feel the soft breeze entering in my body
and filling it with its melancholy.

Suddenly a soft essence
is allowed to be sensed here by my side,
and a note of light and hazelnut
is drawn in a distant gaze.

So, my body is alone,
spread under a flowery apricot tree
guarded into a mantel of silver and humidity,
waiting for, missing...

And I am far,
in a world which doesn't exist but lives,
my head resting on your lap,
your hands drawing caresses on my face.

A soft smile appears in your face,
which doesn't take form before my eyes,
hidden how it is behind your hair
that of brown wraps my gaze.

But my wings are weak
and the weight of the real makes me fall,
together with the gray and cold twilight,
under the shade of a gnarled apricot tree.
