But you remain if you want

by Paul Coppini

What you want.

But! What I/you/he/she look for

You remain here

Together with me

You are tired

This I know him/it

But I would not want

What you now

I looked for another

And another still

What it doesn't give you

More nothing by now....

And then you go

With a knife

Among the teeth

Ready to strike

Who wants to love you

And still, still

To go away

Without staying

Not even a moment

To give a sense

To this life

Thrown away

But you remain here

Together with me

To go on

Without staying

Without throwing

By the past

A past

What present is

In my mind

And it doesn't go' more street

I beg you love

We still speak

We still look for

To be together

And to find again this

Our love

What by now the wind

You/he/she is brought away

But! The memoirs

There I bring inside

And as a shade

They will follow me

Without frontiers

Up to the end
