Francesco Favetta.
Sicily (Sciacca) Italy.
In this song of pain
It rains on the fields
It rains on the bare earth
It rains in the streets
It rains on every life
It is the end of humanity.
Inside this fire
In this song of pain
Even wars
Are beloved daughters
Are the desires of evil.
And you, man
You who say nothing
You little being
You swallow all the discomfort
You never shout your words.
You, man again
Broken by despair
You let yourself drown in your thoughts
Inside the voices of indifference
And then you fall into dark fear.

It’sa fun journey
Like an enchantment
this life
captivated by song
and beauty
with ever more colors
in the eyes and in the heart
and still laughing
after every little breath.
It’s a fun journey
living in celebration
in the folds of time
and in the songs of the world
and in this story
inside the words of love
carried away by passion
and by small, true gestures.
###
Between dreams and life
Slowly
this day
draws to a silent end
and the dusky sun
hides
beyond the horizon.
Between dreams and life
every breath of mine
is still joyful in my heart
and seduced by the beauty
my eyes
fall asleep
in the dark night.
###
Madness on earth!
I feel the wind
I feel it coming
furious and powerful
on our lives
imposing centuries-old wall
master of every rebellious breath
incredible silent bird of prey
sincere eastern column
song and invisible mystery.
She again
the powerful voice
madness on earth
carved on truths
fallen heavily
above every destiny
shattering human lives
devouring the blood
and souls of evil.
###
The taste of your love
In your lips
innocent woman
love hides
your kiss is poison
then your song
and your warm voice
are the beloved daughters
your ignited senses.
The laughter in your thoughts
becomes small fires
amusing, enchanting gifts
that disappear in your eyes
and within every breath
stripped and unveiled
your taste of love
is immersed in my heart.
### Poetry is freedom!
Beyond the horizon
in the silence of the earth
always flying
beyond the mists
among the rebellious winds
and the voices of time
my sailing
landes soundlessly
in the hidden truths
hidden from everyone’s eyes
taking my bow
to those mysterious ports
where Poetry is freedom.
### Our days
We are one step away
from the end
open that door, love
hold the reins
of my heart
while the breezes
through my hair
slowly fly
your kisses
away from here together we soar.
So I left
far from myself
and from the noises
far from the silences
the snow slowly covered
the traces of my memories
and the further I got
the shadows chased me
I raised my eyes to the sky
and crying, I shouted to the wind
the sense of our immense breath.
When it rains
my eyes
get hidden
everything seems to vanish
words are missing
how many days do you have
without melancholy
it keeps you company inside
and tomorrow will come
to take you.
Feel the winter chilling your blood
don’t vanish into the mists of life
It’s an explosion
of you and me
love me as if it were always summer
love drags me down into your heart
i still count the distances
from mistakes and compromises
i see your reflection imprinted
in the long trails of my pain.
And how I wish I could
have you with me
because you are my beloved gift
i thought you had left here
i will wait for you
time will be absent
now in every place I breathe you
you who know about cut joys
this sky is not so difficult
my hands carve great desires into you.
### Mom
And I still remember you
in that smile of yours
in your emotions
in every moment
in your silent thoughts
but above all
in hearing your voice
when you spoke to me
with your motherly love.
You, dear mother
life in my life
unforgettable feeling
you remain the indelible love
inside my heart
and you will always be the face of love
with those endless caresses
and an eternal silent sail
may this flesh miss you.
