A Fool's Thoughts - 8. For S. - a poem for a friend
For S.
Cold waves nip at my bare feet,
the air crackles like charged black velvet.
Your taste on my tongue is still sweet,
lingering heat,
and I am naked in the rain.
Lightning bolts jigsaw the sky.
Clouds race each other in a wild hunt.
And then in a blink of an eye
you said good-bye
and I am left, naked in the rain.
Your voice still sings in my head.
Ti ameró per sempre.
Aren’t these the words you said?
Red.
And I die naked in the rain.
I wrote this for my friend S., who needed words.
