A City One Wish
by kapardeli eftichia
The city heavy leans
On me years….now
Wakes up and sleep
Effortlessly…unwearied always
The same
The time you say and it leaves the present
To be same
With the past unshaken
Pass from my eyes
My entire life where live in this
***
Resembles eternal city
In this..remained my dream
Does not tease….does not tease something
Whisper to me in the air
Does not tease for all what came and passed
For what remained in the brain
Without becomes actions
In my moments simple genuine
Those that remained in my brain
Prisoner
***
The look looks at beyond
From the horizon
Reaches in the end in the end there
That lengthens the landscape
And becomes a small dot
***
There the look stops in the distant
The uncaught infiltrates
But is lost then
What wish want I touch upon in the horizon
And if I iean it
Still exists or becomes chimera
***
In the beautiful distant landscape
The thought remains meteor
The time scatter in the air
His smell
It should I decide
All in my small head
They become ideas in
order to I begin for a new life
