What would I be without you ?
You,that soothes my childhood fears
and my tears hidden behind a large wheat field...
What would I be without you ?
You lay words on my silence,
translating the songs of my inspiration lnto music
gathering the breath of my atonement ...
You're here ...
Solving the why of my how
and all other questions .
My refusals and acceptances .
You're the lighthouse that illuminates
the nights of my lonely travel ...
Do you remember these stopovers
at the end of the soul,
where I used to take you ?
You endured these roads where my mind was lost
and my tired body rebelled !
Always you were there
with no discouragement and anger ...
Sometimes ,I followed my path of fantasy and madness
seeming to forget you for the perverse eyes
of an anticing demoness ,that made me damned
for the delight of some venomous desire ...
And then ,I'd come back to you ,
land to which I was often unfaithful
but attaching itself to my inner fibers ,
calling me to love ...
Sometimes ,I wonder if you're not
the light face of the wise serpent ?
0r maybe ,it's just the echo of my own mask ?
What would I be without you ,
if I were to lose your presence ?
If you were to choose my hell ?
You,my guardian angel .
