Olivia
Olivia woke up in the morning
As people usually do
More or less with the sun
It was just another Saturday at her window
It was an invitation for luck
It was a resemblance of love
With which she braided daughters and warmth
With loneliness
It was loneliness
The sun was rising
Olivia in her populated peninsula
By the slowness of the day
By the time not spent
Her condition was nailed
Like a goddess of the cold moon
Who wants to meet the stars
And gave a wandering stone to eat
With her loneliness
It was loneliness
And she saw the rain
Olivia didn't know that the night
Builds bridges of downpour
To reach her threshold
Olivia didn't know there's a car
And a cliff at the edge of the coachman
And heard that a star was swelling the sea
And she left her island to walk
Without loneliness
It was loneliness
She heard singing
