Altar Particular

My love who today asks me to turn off the light
And put my fragile heart on the cross
Of your painful private altar

I don't know, your absence caused chaos in me
In today's darkness I feel that
The healing time made sadness normal again

And then, be careful with my heart
Don't let it come in loneliness
Embarrassed to be alone again

Then, when what is confusing makes you smile
Give me back what you took from here
Let my chest open and untie the knots

If finally, one day you decide to change
Take my poor heart off the altar
Give it back to me, as it should be

Or else, say that you decided to take care of it
Take it off the cross and canonize it
I say do better than it seems

Your dock should be somewhere like this
As far as I can see from myself
Where you anchored your sailboat in bloom

No more, life is passing by in emptiness
I have everything floating in the river waiting for the answer to what I call love
