Martirio

Torment
Alone...
Incredibly alone!
I live the drama of waiting for you,
Today...
Tomorrow...
Always the same...
Pain that bites the flesh,
Wound that makes me scream,
Shame of not forgetting you,
When I know you won't come!
Alone!
Terrifyingly alone!...
Like those who are dying,
Those who suffer,
Those who love,
That's how I am... because of your cruelty!
Without understanding,
For what reason I love you...
Nor what punishment from God
condemned me to the horror
of it being you, you,
only you...
No one in life but you
is what I desire...
And between laughter and mockery
I dragged my love
calling for you!...
Fever
of cursed passions,
that one carries from other lives
and suffers until death...
Pain of a lost beast,
that wants to escape the dagger,
I writhe without hands
to free myself from your evil...
Alone!...
Mercilessly alone!...
while my conscience screams
your betrayal
the absence of you!
Today... tomorrow...
Always the same...
