When I am alone

I just found this, it must be 3 years old or so... anyways I have no time, no inspiration, these days, so here it is.

Now that you are gone,
Now that I am close to Rome,
Now that we are home,

Now,
we realize we are alone

I need you in my life
(but I’m scared to be your wife)
I need your lack of words
(you remind me of old lords)
I need you messing with my hair
(not with the one of her)
I need to feel you close
(I need my dose)

I miss our complicity,
I miss our felicity.

Couples in the street, I envy
Everybody around me, I envy
Paulo & Lindsay,
Loren & Leti,
Carlos & Sophie,
Simon & Ruthie
Meredith & Be
Why not you and me?

I see couples, I see happiness, I see kisses,
I see what I wish I had,
I see what I wish I had closer.

Not easy to be far away,
Not a second time, not even the first one.
Worth it? I guess, I hope, I believe, I fear

Don’t wanna wait,
I want you right now, right here.
In the elevator, in the gas station, in the kitchen, on the stage…..
