Wait Until Summer

13
Written by the50yearoldpoet

I put my words

down every day,

hoping that they

might show me the way

to a place where

my mind can rest,

where everything

is not another test.

In my dreams

I can see you standing there,

waiting with arms out

and a flower in your hair.

Smiling, you tell me

everything will be alright.

I put my hands out,

but they drop with a fright,

someone is saying

that it’s not the right time

and I should wait

until the summertime.

I awake in a dark room

and rub my eyes

trying to figure out

whether it was all lies.

  6. Ho messo giù le mie parole
    ogni giorno,
    sperando potessero
    mostrarmi la via
    posto verso un luogo
    dove poter riposare la mente,
    dove tutto non è test.
    Nei miei sogni
    Posso vederti lì,
    aspettarmi a braccia aperte
    e un fiore tra capelli
    Sorridendo, mi dici
    Andrà tutto bene.
    Ho messo le mani avanti
    ma cadono spaventate,
    qualcuno sta dicendo
    che non è il momento giusto
    e dovrei aspettare
    fino all’estate.
    Mi sveglio in una stanza buia
    e stropiccio gli occhi
    Cercando di capire
    se fossero tutte finzione.
