we were lovers in the dark.


when all were adreaming and time was our own,
we left our nested corners of life and distance
and loved eaech other in what we were.


i kept words and feelings
- all of them,
all together,
all ourselves -
as if they were just one
and waited for the end of the day to give them to you in my own nudity.
of what i am.


i discovered your body,
each milimetre,
as if on a first time.
that i don't remember.
that i reinvent at each touch
each kiss
each heart friction.


when morning came with the truth
i went back to faraway from you,
from what we were,
what we are now,
in our own secret;
kept by ourselves
from what is given,
as if.


as if at night,
only at night
- unknown night -
i loved you.
more than what i know.
more than what i can.
more than what i am.

now.
