Wearing you

I look around

while everything sleeps.

still wearing you,

i get up and go to the window

just to be sure

of myself.

the universe is so generous:

it leaves me here a little longer

just to witness that

life goes on.

i wait silently

as time soothes the hours

because your Poetry still reminds me

of whom i still am.

and with eyes closed,

i make a great effort

to remember

how to be happy.
