Brothers
for Teresa Sarti Strada
You fall in love with your eyes
sea full of mirrors
and the sharp spears of the sun
pierce the knees
you fall in love with your eyes
sea full of mirrors
and the stars on the day that dies
you are playing tarot
A dove nests
digging the hair
basically they are all brothers
say with a shy smile
pawns in war
under a livid sky
and at the bottom for these brothers
the dark may be frozen
It took only a moment
to wish well
trying to tighten
Thy mercy overflowing
dogged determination
for those brothers really
felt like a duty
making noise in the mind
A dove nests
between the leaves and the hair
see how many brothers
against the pale sun
are ears of corn
in a dry land
with beautiful eyes too
vivid in the memory
Hello beautiful
that can not stop loving you
it will be impossible
to forget you.
Nicola Pisu
