Exile

Exile

Step after step
With all our strength
With all our soul
With all our faith
Might we progress against all odds,
Leave… throwing hundreds and one glance behind

Leaving the ground of our loves, joys, peoples, dreams …
Closing eyes to shame, sadness, pain which enfold us
And on the road where dwell the death, hatred, fraught and oblivion
Feeling no pleasure, no suffering, no love, no hate and shedding no tear
Lost for ours, lost for ourselves, lost within the darkness,
Follow the invisible steps of the one who knows all the paths

Step over the waters
Calming storms
Step through
Breaking through bulwarks
Step upon death
Living again

Always

Everywhere, give, receive, love, enjoy and dream again
Yesterday in the soul, carpe diem under the skin, and tomorrow in the eyes
Run toward the cliff shape
Step upon void
And soar en route to hope
The world to come where our illusions have flesh and our fleshes have bodies
