ma tu non ci sei.
Senza più il dono della vista, arranco sul proscenio della vita
Cercando te,
l'unica protagonista
La stella che illumina la vista
L' unica capace di dar forma alle cose
L'unica capace di dare un senso alle cose.
Ciro De Martino

Like Tiresias
I have no eyes for anyone but you,
You who are not here with me today.
Bereft of sight,
I trudge across the stage of life
Seeking you,
My heroine, my one and only,
The shining star who guides my journey.
You alone give shape to being.
You alone give life its meaning.
