PROMISE ME

Promise me

you'll paint the horizon

with september colours

and autumn scents.

Dress me

with red golden leaves

and make dance in your arms

as if I was a newborn bird who lost its mother.

Promise me

you'll be

my shelter

and my home,

my lover, and my friend.

Stay inside me,

forever and always,

because without you,

days are grey

and nights are pale.

Stay...

Because melodies of surrender

are made at nightfall

and those miracles only happen

when soulmates like us

are around.
