Keep your eyes open, please

At last

being able to close my eyes,

smelling the warmth of the hands,

the low voice,

to the ear full sentences,

in which because of emotion

the absence of the verb

has a meaning

and the subject and the object

have no identity,

no longer, so much they are close

and thoughts offer themselves

simply bare,

embraced,

imperceptibly shaking,

like lovers

left for too long

too far away
