  • …per la mia luce…

    Alive

    My emotions laid dormant
    Atop a hill of solitude
    Peaceful and oblivious
    My soul tires of this lonely food

    Lifeless and still
    It aches for more
    An unquenchable thirst
    Seeking to settle the score

    A beckoning call
    Tugging at my innermost being
    A Light shining from the East
    That seems all too fleeting

    What is this–
    This burning within?
    A flutter of emotions
    Carrying me places I’ve never been

    My lungs gasp for breath
    After every engaged stare
    A new addiction for life
    More than a breath of fresh air

    Can it be?
    Is this what it feels like to be alive?
    A pounding of my heart
    Each time you pass by?

    A tingling sensation
    Of the depths of my soul
    A melting of my inner glaciers
    A flowering of my barren knoll

    E sarà naturale come respirare
    E sarà vero amore
    Che guarisce il cuore
    Luce dentro me nascerà
