…per la mia luce…

Alive
My emotions laid dormant
Atop a hill of solitude
Peaceful and oblivious
My soul tires of this lonely foodLifeless and still
It aches for more
An unquenchable thirst
Seeking to settle the scoreA beckoning call
Tugging at my innermost being
A Light shining from the East
That seems all too fleetingWhat is this–
This burning within?
A flutter of emotions
Carrying me places I’ve never beenMy lungs gasp for breath
After every engaged stare
A new addiction for life
More than a breath of fresh airCan 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 knollE sarà naturale come respirare
E sarà vero amore
Che guarisce il cuore
