The Herculanum night

I had this strange dream .

As if i were waking up 

in another time ...

I\'m here and this part of me elsewhere

like the seed of a fleshless fruit ...

I felt the softness of a hand 

caressing my face ,

the impression of a distant future

that I would never reach ,

of a a far-off passion that i\'ll never live

in love with a body I would never touch...

Once again the ground has shaken slightly

and the protective spirits seem to be dancing...

This summer night is warm and mild ,

  and the words of a deep silence ...

The nearby mountain seems to be saying \'\'Come ! \'\'

But I\'ll go back to sleep and find the arms 

of this seductive stranger ...

Who are you whose hands graze my cheeks

as if questioning the secrets of my story ?

Resurrecting me from a mineral prison ?

These fingers that winds back the age ,

recovering the memory of a burning cloud...

 ( Antonia  Aemilia )
