Poetic proses by Remil

                                                             Here I have come.
                                                             Here I have been sitting.
                                                             Here I have been waiting for you

                                          The splendors of great loves
                                          extinguish themselves
                                          and die under the implacable scourge
                                          of the lust of richness.

                                        All those that have been loved
                                        for having shown their false image
                                        soon will be chased.

                                                            Here you have come.
                                                            Near to me you have been sitting.
                                                            Here you have kissed me.

                                       You hadn't anything in your hands,
                                        I hadn't anything in my home
                                        and just here
                                        where life has forgotten their  sons
                                                                 is living ,
                                                    wonderful and endless,
                                                     the greatest love story
                                                     that men ever lived
                                                     on the infinite isle
                                                     of the common people.
 
 

GOD'S PATH

                                         To Dee

My Lord,
I came to this pinery searching for you
but I didn't find you.
Why is my destiny
so loveless.
How many cups of bitter liqueur
have I still to drink
before You come to help me.
The Lord was moved by the sincere tears
of the man and said:
- I told you to follow your road.
You chose this pinery to come
and search for me.
Well, you have found me!
Now go on without repenting of your choices
if you think they have been right.
Always go straight without listening to those that
would say you are doing fine,
without listening to those that would say
you are doing bad.
You must say to them
I am doing only what I believe is right
for my destiny
I am doing only what I believe is right
never having to repent in front of God.
   Why should I listen to your judgments?
If you will stay this way
you will find me again
at the end of the path. -

The man started to walk
but with each step he took
the path got longer.
- My Lord, so far I never could reach you
because you move away as I take a step -
And God answered:
- It means you stopped
and listened to the judgments of  men
cutting off the time for yourself.
Now go
without listening to anyone anymore,
and your time
will be joined with mine. -

DEEP DESIRE

Deep desire of open skies
where you can throw the rest of your illusions,
everything that remains still incomplete
is in a dark corner of your memory.

Deep desire of limpid waters
where you can wipe away
everything that has deluded your youth.
All the rest ends up in stagnant water
where the certainty we are nothing
lives under the tyranny
of the emptiness in this world
that has been paid thirty coins.

Deep desire of empty towns
countryside, mountains, and endless valleys,
where only earthly love exits
fled, maybe from a remembrance of God
or only invented
by a moment of dreams of a perfect mind.

Deep desire of you, woman
that is accompanying me on the flamed crests
of a hostile earth where fire and fog can't
wipe away the sparkling beauty of your tears
when I say I love you.
 
 
 

HEART'S FRUITS

The fruit of the earth,
      God's gift

The savor of a kiss
      on my lips
      can make me
forget the colors of the earth.

      Your kiss,
       divine gift
has the color of a fruit
and savor of the earth.

     This is the time of vintage.
Give me the fruit of a good night.
    I will give you back the kiss
           of the morning.

 
 

I AM A MAN

I am a man
and I can't bless your path
I am a man
and I can only pray that
your path will be free
from each and every evil
where the white waters
of your sky
could rain only tears of joy.

My hands are ready, gathering
each drop of your love
and like man I can put my heart
and my life in your hands
so that your sky could always be
the kingdom of the white waters.
I  can only kneel praying to God
knowing that he never could forget you.

RED FLOWER

This red flower
that you are seeing
I have stolen from the earth for you.

Well, I confess,
I am a thief of flowers.

Who steals flowers for love
 is a thief of dreams:
I take the dreams to time
and the flowers to earth.

Only for you
My unique
red flower
of love

 
 

SPRING'S BUTTERFLY
 

Thousands of seedy feathers
couldn't hide your breath from me.
I would always recognize it.

 Thousands of birds singing
 could never cover
 the sound of your voice.
 I would always recognize it.

.....and among thousands of smiles
I would always recognize yours.
Because it is on your smile
that I have left my heart
giving you each second of time that I live.

 Thousands of tears of love
 could never fool my eyes
 because I would always know
 the reason for your weeping.

And you,
small, spring's butterfly
would always recognize
my kiss of love
because among thousands and thousands of kisses,
mine will always be the deepest
and the lightest of all,
hardly laid
on your light wings, my butterfly
like a flutter of your eyelashes.

     THE COMEBACK
 

         A kiss is always a kiss.
     When you give it,
     When you receive it,
     When you feel it,
     in your mind, in you heart.

          A hug is always a hug.
     When you give or receive it,
     when you feel it in your arms,
     or on your body.

          A good-bye is always
     a good-bye
     When it kills your heart
     or when you put on your coat
     going away never to return.

          The comeback is always
     the comeback.
     It is coming to you
     just when you are not waiting
     for anyone or anything.
     It is always coming to you,
     with all the kisses and hugs
     that have been lost by time,
     It doesn't know good-byes
     as it is forever.

THE KISS
 

The kiss of love
is always like the touch
of  spring in the fields,
Like the waves caressing
a seashell on the seaside.

The kiss of love
comes to you
whenever you need it
anywhere you are
whatever you do.

You will always recognize
the kiss of love.
It is soft like a blow of wind
and bursting like
an overflowing river

 
 

TIGHTEN YOUR FINGERS
 

If the voice of sorrow
is calling you
tighten your fingers strongly
and look at its face.
-Come with me
don't fear
I’ll take care of you until your
days are happy again. -

Meeting the voice of silence
stop talking and
tighten your fingers strongly
and smile.
After
wrap it with your love
and gift it to your heart
and it will follow you
all the time
you will know keeping silent.

When it shall be
the time of  stolen food
you will sit at its table
leaving each drop of your sorrow
in the cup of your life
Tighten your fingers strongly
and drink your silence and your pride
till your days are happy again.

....and when you finally
have happier days
you'll place at its feet
the sorrows of your life
freeing all the words
that you never have said
living the silence of  waiting
Tighten your fingers strongly and tell it:
- Follow me now
if you want to live with me at least one day
I haven't time for you anymore.
Here
in these tight fingers of mine
where your eyes
could never see
there is the secret of my life
that you will never get -

NETS OF FISHERMAN
 
 

     The sea!
     How I do love the sea!

     Its scent seems a recall
     of a loving woman.

     And you, my loving woman
     How much do you love the sea?

     Are you able to see
     the way fishermen do?

     People say
     that no one
     can see the sea
     like fishermen.
     When they are taking up
     their nets.

     Nets of fishermen
     that let my eyes
     look through you
     bring me
     where the waves are highest
     and let the ocean
     abandon me
     on the seaside.
     Here my love
     looking at the horizon
     is waiting
     for some nets
     of fishermen

 


 
 

SLEEP MY BABY
 

Sleep my baby,
sleep.
You know my arms
are holding you tight.
When you sleep
you can meet me
where you wish.

You can plunge into the sea
or throw yourself from the
highest mountain in the world
because you know that my arms
always are ready to catch you.

Sleep, baby, sleep.
Turn not your head to see me.
I am there
to secure you,
to defend my love from all.

When I also am sleeping
Who will secure the two of us?

God will watch over us
as He knows
we can't defend ourselves
   and He will make
 our sleep safe
        letting us find ourselves together
on the new day that will rise.

Sleep, my baby, sleep,
and wait for me in your dreams.

 
 

  LET'S GO DANCE
 

Tonight you are beautiful
with eyes the color of the sky.
wear a dress that you have
that is opened.

   Let spring enter inside of you
between your breasts
so I could kiss them.

How beautiful you are tonight
smiling like the summer
with your white teeth
it seems the moon
        built its nest in your mouth.

I can see your teeth.
I can see myself kissing you.

   Soon, let's dance
until the morning
that will never come
   so that love
will find us embraced
in a never ending dance!

HIDDEN FIREPLACE

It's snowing!
Among the trees
there is a hidden house.
You don't see it because
it is much more to the right
than your heart
and much more to the left
than your mind.
Down there, far,
there is a firing fireplace
that is burning.
It is the lover's fireplace
and our love
has hidden it to strangers eyes.

 

THE SEA'S ARMS
 

It is not a sea you know
No!
It is a beach the you have never seen.
It's my sea
You can't see anyone here
even though it is bigger
    than my life.
If you love me
look at its waves folding from the wind
nevertheless they are always in motion.
They are my arms.
that never stop moving.
The color of the sky
is yellow
as the jealousy
that wants you always
in the sea's arms.
The dark cloud in the sky
is my anger
against whoever wants
to tear you from the sea
of my arms.

WINGS OF WIND
 

White dove
that tie your wings
to the impetuous wind
of my love,
to the wind
that goes up to the sky
and will never make you fly away
as the wings of wind
are the same that you have,
my white dove.

 
 

A LIGHTNING TOWARDS YOUR EYES
 

A part of our soul exists
that goes up to the sky,
to be seen by God
for his eternal glory.

A part of our soul exists
that goes up to our face
to be seen by men
for our earthly joy.

A lightning towards your eyes
shyly tells that
you gave joy to God
and joy to men.

 
 

HEART AND EARTH

Words that go out
from your heart
   never follow the ways of the air of the wind

Words that go out
from your heart
   always find a place on earth to remain.

The opened earth
knows the way to keep always
words that were born
from your heart.

SMALL FLOWERS
 

Small secured flower by stones.
Small flower
you hide a wonderful secret.
I don't know what it is.
I can only see two names
that will always keep you
in its own heart.

A LEAF

Your voice!
I have hidden it between the branches.
I am counting the leaves the way I count my time.
Each leaf has the memory of your voice!
And your voice has caressed the wind.
How many leaves does a tree move
by a breath from the wind!

Your voice,
like a puff of wind,
moves my love
towards the infinite,
light and impalpable
like an eternal floating leaf
without ever falling to earth!

THE PITY OF THE SKY
 

Men that haven't love for anyone.
Men that are afraid of no one.
Men that look to the sky with pride.
Lower your glance!
Sky hasn't the beginning,
sky hasn't the end,
sky can have only pity
if in the sky you search
for the word.

You that have left your faith
between the stones of your earth
Look to the sky and feel dread!

Now you can return
to kiss your woman.
Tomorrow offer to the sky
your earthly love
and you will get back its pity
and your salvation.

A BABY FOR A MOM
 
 

How great is your heart?
God knows your heart is great.
and entered inside of you
and built there His temple.

     How good is your heart?
    Everyone you know
    you loved and let them
       build their house and bed in your heart.

     How great is your heart of a mom?
Your heart of mom is immense
Like the heart of child.
A smile of a baby
is enough to make you happy

     On the isle of the common people
   no mother knows heartache

YOUR CRIED SONG OF LOVE
 

Water and tears
when the sea is hostile
and seems to sing with cruelty
its most beautiful songs of love.
Tears and rain
when the time of the day's love
gloomily withers
taking away the glad notes
of our songs of love.
You mix the water of the sky
with the tears of the sea
letting them glide on your cheeks
within seconds of eternity
forgetting your song of love.
Do leave to the sea
the tears of the sky
that it gathered
and the unpitying time
glided away
on the waters of life.
The tear that only a few seconds ago
was drawing a groove on your face
has stopped itself inside of it,
leaving the time to sing
your song of love.
Do sing always
and the tears will mix with the waters
of the sea and no one will understand
the mystery of a rainbow
born on a rainy day
between the endless notes
of your cried song of love

.

ANGELS ' SLEEP

                               To C.S.

Far away
on hills of regrets
where branches of trees
seem to touch the sky
and  instead bend on the earth,
the angels go to sleep.

The sleep of angels
is the fleeting snapshot of time
on lowlands of the sea
that hardly gather
the memory of the last foam's touch
on the rock.

The angels choose their house
Where the power of men
never arrive,
where free lands and islands of enchantment
will always remain without conquest
and the idea of the infinite grazes eternity.
 

And you
terrestrial creature
are one of the angels
that have known sleep
You now live their color
that no rainbow has ever known
and no canvas
has ever captured
its  pure beauty.

Sparkling creature
whose glance is turned
to the smile of the angels
teach me the secret of the words
that one by one
draw the thin line
that join the infinite
to the earthly insufficiencies
of humans

Is it therefore so
my love,
that angels sleep?

If it is so
don't wake up.
Do leave the veil of truth
that might illuminate your face
and the dreams of angels
will accompany you
until the complete knowledge
of what was once unknown.

YELLOW RAY
 

Yellow ray
like your jealousy.
I love your jealousy
     as you look more like a woman
and I see the female within you
always ready to love your man
      until crazy with spasms.

   My hands are ready to catch you
yellow ray.
Be jealous always
I'll tease your senses forever
having this yellow ray
in my eyes as proof of your love.

EYES OF THE CAPTAIN
 

He takes a long look in the mirror
seeing how much time has past
from the last glance of glory.

The captain loves only his ship and his woman.
The glance of love he gives to his woman
is the same he gives to his ship.

When the ship is sinking
he seizes the helm with desperate power
and calls his woman by her name.

Eyes of captain
this is just the great moment
of glory you were waiting for

Wind and water on your forehead
are giving you only the time
to say I love you

Ony your eyes, captain,
know what your words mean
when you see your ship sinking.

DANCING TEARS

When the shade of night
enfolds your heart
and you don't see
anyone with you
you close your eyes
and fly over the first
isle of your dreams.
Looking down
you see
all the tears
you poured out
are dancing in the sea.
The music of your sorrows
just plays the right song,
you may dance
with the first drop of water
you meet.
It smiles at you and
you tighten it to your heart
as you know it is one
of the millions of tears
you cried
with your heart enfolded
in the shade of the night.

WHEN YOU NEED LOVE
 

Often hope is
a drop of light
when you need love.

An ounce of light
can be found anywhere
when you need love.

A bit of hope and light
are what you have as friends
when you need love.

If in the hope
you see a drop of light
among the trees of your life
at the horizon of your dreams
you know that someone
is coming to you
when you need love.

FLYING SWALLOW IN THE SKY

When a swallow
is crying for love,
they say that all the swallows
fly close to the earth
forgetting the spring
in the season of loneliness.
Sweet spring,
come back beating in its heart,
its wing will lean
to the center of its breast
feeling each second of its heat
like a flutter of wings
which close in a circle of colors
the flight of swallows in the sky.

WIFE

A Wife is the one
that says good morning
to you
and asks for nothing,
maybe a smile.

A Wife is the one
that peels
your orange and apple
for you
asking for nothing,
maybe a caress.

A Wife is the one
that covers you
with hot blankets
when you are tired
for one I love you only.

A Wife is the one
that makes you feel
like a king in your home
asking only
for a smile,
a caress
when in bed
she is dreaming
of you.

LOVE HIM ALWAYS

When it is winter
and the first light
of the dawn
hardly makes the sky pink
he leaves for work
in the cold and rain.
It is to make
your life safe
and comfortable
He is your husband.
He just asks for a kiss.
Love him always.

When in the late afternoon
he comes home
tired and sometimes
disappointed
because of the difficulties
of life
Run to him
and hug him strongly
and you will make him happy.
He is your husband
and asks for your arms
around him.
Love him always.

When in the night
he is in bed
happy and relaxed
because you made him feel
like a king during his dinner
he asks for your lips.
Give him all the passion
you have in your soul.
He is the man you chose
as your husband.
Love him always.
 

ANGEL WIFE

Countrysides when loved
give life to flowers
as the sea lovingly sighted
gives life to rivers.

Set your feelings as a dove
opening your heart to life.
You'll be blessed from love
staying always my angel wife.

ROPE

Sometimes
a simple rope
can suggest the idea
of something that never ends.
It is immovable!
Nevertheless,
it seems to be the idea
of an undefined moment
like a love's thought
written in the wind.
If you want,
we can take it
where dreams
become a reality!

BED OF STARS
 

Your hands
grazing the infinite
lay themselves down
on a bed of stars.

The stillness in the sky
is the image of eternity,
the perennial and absolute certainty
of a world
that isn't a mirror of this earth,
nevertheless, it belongs to us!

I believe
it is from the sky
that you took your smile
and my soul would look for rest
on the slight motion of your lips,
on the plaintive wind
of your breath
and without asking more from life
it will fall asleep forever
on the border of your mouth
like in a bed of stars.

To snap the breath
on the fastest motion
of your lashes
is to learn
suddenly
the smile of the sky
that with absolute  tenderness
spreads its piteous hand
on doubts
and uncertainties.

The smile of the sky
is the dream of men
and your sweetness
is the promise
of an eternal love
in a bed of stars!
 
 

YOUR VOICE

Your voice is always
the sweet touch
of your lips in the wind

Your love travels the wind
in rings of water
moved from the sound
of your voice
into endless circles
as the shape
of your lips.

LIFE WITHOUT LOVE
 

Life without love
is a thin sail
scattered
as a veil
on a little boat
surrounded by
an endless sea
without horizons.

BRIDGE OF LOVE

               The anniversary card
               is a bridge on life.
               It's a sweet romance
               you may read or live
               or simply,
               keeping it
               in your hands,
               you may glance
