Midnight Moments

 

Time has passed

and in deep darkness

I will stay without sleep

and this night too

counting the stars

trying to feel you

but my hands are empty.

And when the day comes,

our "moments", my Love,

will become a salty tear 

in memory.

 

 

 

Midnight

 

I look for you in silence,

you are not there at midnight.

Moments come to my mind,

that we lived together in the past!

The memory begins a song

and stops in the mornings

when the day rises.

Requiem of love the moments,

that cool the nights

and the soul weeps…

 

 

 

Midnight In The City

 

I'm alone and I walk,

midnight in the city.

No one is going round,

everyone is probably asleep!

A slow, nice rain

falls on empty streets,

my body hurts

I keep my shoulders bent.

I remember some of our moments

of love at night,

now that everything

is done remnants in life!

They collapsed like ruins

and I am left alone

at midnight to walk

in the city that hurts me!
