OuT of A BoOk

A chain of shadows hold us tight, apart.
As I keep my dreams secret, letting them grow like pearls inside: rounding them to a shine.
You accept to love me provided I prove my nothingness, like fireworks in daylight.
Hovering at the edge of a question that might break us apart, but it keeps falling out of syntax.
And as I look into your eyes, the seconds regain their orderly rhythm, the moment passes.
We laugh and kiss once more.


Snippest from out of "The Story of the Lost Child" by Elena Ferrante, joined together into a poem.
