In the microport

Mother is starry, tonight is the sky
maybe I'll be late to come back.. don't worry
I will walk next to the sea in your arms
until late when it gets quieter and quieter..

I calm down, in the evenings at the sea the reflection
in her smooth shiny mantle
I forget my worries..
I listen to her light splash
and it's almost one o'clock.

At the microport in the distance I look
the cement ship emptying its cargo
his engines can be heard faintly this far
and its sound like the roar of a beast fascinates me.

I carry a load of fragments inside me for a long time
which, like the ship, I want to deposit somewhere
to lighten I seek often
but storms don't leave me every now and then.

Calm down mother, in the infinite flashes
which reflect under the small ones
small boats
I would like to sleep in a small cabin tonight
here to house my shattered dreams..
