It's Worth Loving

Tom! Dear Tom... Why did you abandon

your solitude so early?

Why did you hastily leave

the scarlet, timorous wind?

You're leaving because

your last dying star woke you up.

That evening you cried

painfully and bitterly.

When I look into the depths

of your eyes, I see the echo

of my soul.

The shadow that brutally lied

to you is not conducive

to eternity today, it does not conflict

with the truth.

It was pain, this terrible suffering

that made you abandon

your unfaithful tear,

that made you defy happiness.

Tom, I'm begging you,

your broken heart,

your heart without its shine.

Let the solitude that saved you

show us 

the right path to remembrance,

to memories sunk

in the lethargy of illusion.

Even if you don't know it,

I want your freedom,

I need your grace.

The echo of our crying

will mark your longing for

what is insignificant but so powerful.

Tom, share your loneliness

with me, and I will prove to you

that sometimes it's worth loving.
