Another summer is ending
We are all leaving this land
And I wonder when will we be togheter again.

Each end brings a new start
But this one bring a dangerous tension
which could destroy our past
I hoped it would have faded away by now
But it’s getting stronger, and I don’t know how

How can I stop it
How can I save us
We have always been united,
Four people who looked as one.
now there’s only a huge split
That drives you miles away
From what we were, from what we became.
I hate that you can’t realise it
I hate the way you did this

But I can’t hate you,
I swear I can’t.
I just don’t know how to bring you back.

The more the time passes,
The less you’ll hear from them
I will be the only connection
To a friendship which wasn’t supposed to end.

And I hate being the middle
The bridge to your past life
I hate watching you argue
With nothing left to try.

I feel stupid and uncertain
That’s something I can’t stand
I think we’ve reached the end
But no one seems to care.

But what I hate the most
Regards my stupid self
Because here I’m able to write all of this
But I can’t say this to your face.

First time I was afraid,
I was walking home when a man came to sight
"Why is a pretty girl like you, all alone, in such a cold night?"
I walked faster and arrived home safe,
but my heart was pounding like in a crazy race.

Second time I was afraid,
I was in an island with my friends,
we were having a good time until four men asked us to dance.
What scared me was not the gesture,
but the way they looked us,
as if we were some sort of prize.
They were all married and they all had a child.

Third time I was afraid,
I was listening my sister talking to my parents,
she didn't manage to get the job she so much craved.
The reason behind this was her fresh and lovely marriage
Her future boss thought she would have soon bought a baby carriage.

What scares me the most is that there are going to be more of these times,
and I do not know how they are going to end up like.
We live in a world where we don't feel protected
Where people who have power like to rest on the throne they created.
Our world is fighting, our world is collapsing
and all I hear saying is 'we can't do anything about it'
Many people like to say that we are all the same,
they use words as gender equality,
but only few of them actually take the effort to make it a reality.

Sometimes I wonder if it is all worth it
The things I do, have they any meaning?

But then I look around and see all the beauty this world has
My heart beats faster, and I take a big breath

And then I know, for sure, that I'll never stop fighting
that I'll never let my life get ruined by this stupid society.

If I told you my surname, you would start to laugh
It's silly, but it's mine, and it's meant to last.
F
L
Y
It's a noun, not a verb,
it's a little bug which lives everywhere.

I am a fly but I can't explore the sky,
"I don't have any wings" I repeated as a child.
But when were are together,
no chain can forbid me to reach the heavens.
You are to me
something that no one else could be.
I feel more like that bug when I'm with you
than when I'm on my own,
How you manage to do so, it's something I'll never know.

I am a fly but I can't explore the sky,
"I don't have any wings" I repeated as a child.

But touching this light blu sky
I finally realize
That that was not the truth.
My wings?
It's you.

I tell myself I hate that you started this
While I’m waiting for you to ask about it
“You write poetry?”
“I just write”
“Maybe someday you’ll let me read them”
That is the moment
I started to fall
That is the moment
I will always regret
Or at least this is what I say to myself.
I want to find that door
But I’m afraid that even then I won’t open it
Tell me
When will I let you go



Actually, don’t answer.

There are two people
who I love the most
Fire and Water
this is how they are going to be called.
They are so similar
in many different ways
Both stubborn, powerful and strong
They do not like to be wrong.
They bring life,
and joy,
to every event we attend
Fire with its stormy energy,
Water with a smile which never ends.
They taught me the difference
between good and bad
The things that matters,
things that I can never forget.
I loved the way it felt,
when it was just the three of us
I loved that it felt as the whole world could be ours.
They have been so close for such a long time,
connected with a never ending line.
If Fire thought something, Water spoke it out loud
If Water felt anything, Fire already knew what it was about.
I wanted to be like you, and I tried for so long
But it's useless, even now that I've managed to do so.
Useless because you left,
you decided to take different paths
I got distracted for a second,
I didn't think it would have been enough.
It feels as you have just reached
two opposite sides of the road
And you both think it is too late to go home.
Now I have to stay still, in silent
As your fights break my heart
I have to be quiet, while my life falls apart.
I thouhgt I could do something,
I thought I knew how to act
but right now,
all I have left,
is a huge panic attack.

Free fall
No end
Right choice
Wrong place
terrifying
I can't move
I feel the oxygen
but it can't get through
Those barricades that I built
where's the exit
I can't see
stop everything
even just an hour
show me that I still have power
What happens if I change?
And why are you still there for God's sake?

— The End —
