Poetry, art, music and commentary from
Pentimento.
If I were a little bird
and had two little wings,
I would fly to you.
But since it cannot be,
I must stay here.
Although I'm far from you,
in sleep I'm beside you,
speaking with you.
But when I awaken,
I am alone.
Not an hour of the night goes by
that my heart doesn't awaken
And think of you,
and imagine that, many thousands of times,
you give your heart to me.
Above: "Solitary Tree" by Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), one of the greatest artists of German Romanticism.
