Sugar And Salt Poem by Saverio Terracciano

And once again I am here sleepless
sad and cold watching me inside
finding a boat shoved by tide,
sails ripped off, drived wayless.

Into an ocean of loniliness I am lost,
you could be my anchor, my rescue rope,
you could be my chance, my unique hope.
Leave me there or bring me to the coast.

I am drowning in my deep feelings flood
Dive in it and gimme just a warm breath
I'm freezing, I need you as my life heat
stay near me, your hug is the best hood.

Take my hand, and on the sea we'll walk
gulls and waves for us will stop to talk
the sea know well that nothing can sever
an istant that is made to last forever...

Is it my fault if every waft of wind,
bring her crystalline laugh to my mind?
Is it my fault if just her scent of hon,
bring my fantasy to wake up and turn on?

Also if on my head there is only you,
Also if in my mind there is just you,
My sad heart knows that sugar and salt,
still from you it's all he can hath...
