Forte come l'acqua

11/5/2019

Eri forte come l'acqua
O forse dovrei dire: sei forte come l'acqua
Certe cose non cambiano, non se ne vanno
Il tempo piuttosto le rafforza, ne esalta i tratti all'inizio solo accennati 
Le affina queste cose, e le tempra
Sei forte come l'acqua, dicevo
L'acqua che scava, lenta e paziente, 
Con il tocco di una sola goccia, ripetuto all'infinito.
Rimbalza il suo eco tra le pareti umide e scure 
Tocca la pietra grigia, un attimo solo
Tocca la pietra fredda, una forza neppure tale
Tocca la pietra ruvida, subito scivola via
L'acqua che scava, lenta e paziente
Anfratti, gole, cunicoli, grotte.
Il suo percorso, comunque.
L'acqua che scava
Ha il tempo dalla sua parte
E sa aspettare
Hai il tempo dalla tua parte, e non vuoi aspettare
Ma sei forte come l'acqua
E il tempo ti è amico.

I lived

Ho vissuto, lo ammetto.
​Ed ho amato, e ho vissuto e ho sognato e ho amato
I giorni correvano veloci, ed io non me ne curavo. All'ombra di certezze granitiche scorrevano le piccolezze del mondo e le sue ansie di sempre.
Appena accennate, le venature di grigio che di tanto in tanto si presentavano, diventavano esse stesse sfumature e toni in una tavolozza dove i colori sembravano inseguirsi senza limiti e regole.
Ho vissuto, lo ammetto.
Non ho modo di nasconderlo, né lo voglio fare

    ​Stories and novels, stories and shades of words. Sapphire can be a voice, a whisper, a night talk.  Colours in words, words merged and melted with pictures. Words as colours, words as shapes sometimes overlapping with the visual experience.  A different way to see the world or, maybe, just the very same way using different tools and finding different paths. ​
