Ci Pensero' Domani

She entered, someone looked on the stairs
Her strange clothes
She leaned her shoulders against the door saying:
We broke up with him
I observed two marked eyes
And the face wet from the rain
I don't know, she said, I don't know how to get out of it, I don't know.
I looked at her,
And I had a moment of pity,
Because she seemed lost,
I wish, she said, I wish it wasn't like this,
But it's really over she said later
Finding a smile with difficulty:
Anyway, I wanted it, you know,
I never miss the ways to hurt myself.
Then she told me the story that I already knew
Since the last time she felt
That she was more alone, more wicked.
She calmed down, looking around
And we talked about me, drinking several times
She lay down among the cushions and said to me:
With you, I was the strongest
She said then chasing a thought:
It's true, with you, I was fine
And if I were a woman who returns
It's here that I would return.
Then we had dinner here, I asked her:
What are you doing tomorrow
The rain was beating on the balconies
She replied: I'll think about it tomorrow!
I woke up in the morning
And heard her voice from there:
She was speaking in English, I looked at her:
She had the phone in hand and coffee
And I wasn't surprised, I accepted the brief smile
And the face of someone who doesn't stay.
If you can, she said, if you can,
Never change from who you are!
Then she left in the way that I already knew,
A badger passed by, she caught it in flight
Take care of yourself, I thought alone.
