Monica Melissano Poems

I wont give up
until we'll be sitting quietly
under a tree
in pale sunlight
...

Il caffè che gorgoglia
i bips della posta
le richieste di amicizia
i mozziconi
...

I need buckets of colors
to turn these walls
from brown
to white, bright blue and orange.
...

We should set up
a strong fighting gear
against these blobbing meatballs
...

Can you recall
how full of energy
and sweetness
we used to be?
...

I saw you from the street
standing at the bar
waiting for your drink
and I realized
...

Sorry people
if I keep declining your invites
sorry if I do not feel
like wearing a mask
...

As if
we were
falling down
down
...

I cuddled him
gently
for hours
and hours
...

There is an empty seat
at my humble table
and it's fully reserved.
No one else is allowed to sit there,
...

What a joke!
You simply said 'yes! '
and it meant so much to me
...

Displaced
In another time
Fearing
Nothing's going to be
...

The Best Poem Of Monica Melissano

One Fine Day

I wont give up
until we'll be sitting quietly
under a tree
in pale sunlight
staring in each other's eyes.

I wont give up
until I hear your voice
telling all the stories left untold
in peace
no regrets and no remorse.

I wont give up
until I open
the shell
in which you hide
emotions and connections.

Because
from a spring of emotions and connections
the river of inspiration flowed.
And there's no other way.

Ciao Monica, Welcome at PoemHunter! :) DESTINAZIONI è l'unica delle 13 poesie che non hai tradotto (ad oggi) . Sono tutte belle poesie. Tutte quelle che hai voluto condividere con noi, ma sono sicuro che la musicalità dei tuoi versi originali (in italiano) sia ancora più suggestiva di quella che traspira dalla traduzione inglese. Benvenuta fra noi, Monica! :)
