MY FALLEN

Frozen in that moment

seems my time stood still

but, everything was falling apart

and

it fell, where everything begins.

Life and death combine

in the one and only ring, eternally.

The sun rise every morning

nothing had changed

but its light is slipping away from me.

I look at to the moon

there, is the little girl that once I was

and you are still holding my hand.

The night become

the only time that the sorrow goes away

the Dark embrace me silently

the stars become my tears

I don't have to explain why I feel lost

He never asks questions

but

who are those faceless strangers around me?

FALLEN ANGEL

I always felt I belong to the night

my heart is a costant winter storm

but I am unable to freeze the time

unable to dry the tears

which accompany all my fears.

Take my hand beloved Fallen Angel

take me away from this cold

take me at your side

let me be your bride.

Embrace me with your dark wings

let me feel why you have fallen

what you have lost, for what we call love.

My love, you whispered

I've always lived my life through  your dreams

to deny the untold misery

the wicked game of the memory.

I know I can run

I know how to hide

I saw you on the other side

but I can't fly with broken wings.

There are days in which I wonder
where is the deadline
between Hope and Delusion.
The veil between is so thin
and
is difficult to see
when one stops
and the other begins.

See you there!!! 

MASK

I look furtively at you

Trying to shut down the beat of my heart

too loud on my ears.

I wonder if you can feel my eyes on you....

and your eyes met mine for a moment

You are still beautiful

although time have left its mark

around your eyes too.

I turn my head away.

I would like to talk to you

come near and ask ”don't you remember me?”

but I am shy

or is it the fear for the answer?

So, I just look at you silently

sipping my coffee

when you are unaware.

You smile and talk with others.

My soul shatters in front of that smile

reminding me

I still bleed for you

from those my beloved scars

which I have never wanted to be healed.

My heart, now out of control

my breath shortened

and all what you see

is maybe a woman

that look too proud
while my soul screams I love you.

I have built this mask for so many years

and yet

I would like to die with you any night

under the jealous moon.

I wish you could see me through...

At that thought a teardrop fall

but you didn't see it

I have ran away before my mask fell in pieces.

ASHES WITH MEMORIES

Forgetting is in vain

memories will be not washed away by the rain

or buried by the sand of time.
Counting the ciphers of tears I've spread

is hard to know
that each one
is a dream I left behind or forget.

I've burned to ashes and reborn thousands of times

the fire marked my soul

and my heart ablaze

with the only letter I never regret.

We are what we are

we can't be otherwise

our soul in entwined

but our worlds set us apart.

© Diana Mistera 8.1.2016

THERE IS NEVER AN END

Is pointless to try to find excuses

and lock away all memories

fooling myself that all those open scars

finally will stop bleeding

all the questions

finally will get the right answers

and close this circle

which is still full of crackles.

The fire have sealed my soul to yours

and it burns

every time our universes collide

giving me an illusion

that I still believe to be real.

The waiting became agony

and the hope is killing me every time

I keep it high

but nothing goes the way I wanted to go.

And you are moving far away

in those dreams that once were happy and vivid

and now

I look at you unable to reach you

unable to hold you

The fire will always burn

and the rain will be always wet

I cannot ignore anymore the pain

but I can't let you go either

becoming myself

my own executioner.

© Diana Mistera 3.1.2016

ADDICTED

The world is standing still

I pray for the night to come

to reach you

and take you away with me

to fulfill my darkest dreams.

I am not an angel

and if I was once

now I've learned to fly

on broken wings.

Longing for you

I leap into the mirror

and on the other side

there is no more light.

Diving into the spotless night

I'm leaving all my memories behind.

THE SEQUEL OF ORPHEUS IS OUT NOW!

I am glad to announce you that the second chapter of the Orpheus saga, IL DEMONE DELLO SPECCHIO, is out now and available on amazon.

I am quite satisfy about this one and once I have published it I imediately miss it.

So if you want to buy it and you know italian, follow the link under

IL DEMONE DELLO SPECCHIO

Nightwish - "Stone People"

I still dream every night

of them wolves, them mustangs, those
endless prairies

the restless winds over mountains tops

the unspoiled frontier of my kith and
kin

The hollowed land of the Great Spirit

I still believe

in every night

in every day

I am like the caribou

and you like the wolves that make me
stronger

we never owed you anything

Our only debt is one life for our
Mother

it was a good day to chant this song
for Her

Our Spirit was here long before you,
long before us

and long will it be after your pride
brings you to your end

SCOREKEEPER

From the very beginning

we were like dancing magnets

of fragmented molecules

which were an entirety once.

We collide in each other's life 

and couldn't stop what

was rising from within.

Once we were silver lining scars

and we fed our desire

with tongues of fire

Now we crackle and torn

burning every time a bit more.

ODE TO THE GREY

One more time

life deceived us

and the moon turns red

because of the tears I have shred

and my soul is a deserted land.

We will never know why

we were chosen by the fate

to live multipled lives

which turned love

into a neverending craving.

I see you passing by

gently smiled at my face

we are both tired

to keep living in the shade

of this undisclosed desire

which put our hearts on fire

with flames that we cannot tamed.

HALLOW

Staring down from above

watching you return

slithering at your window

an hallow shadow.

You'll be safe

although hunted by your own demons

I'll keep you safe

my love will not end

I promise

in hundred moons and more.

You should know by now

that you are and will be only mine.

NEWS

Hallo my friends!
Here is some juicy news for you!

An article in a finnish blog culture has been written about Runokohtauksia, in which I have been mentioned. I am very excited about this, it was a very nice surprise.
If you want to read it, follow the link under:

http://www.cultfinlandia.it/antologia-di-poeti-stranieri-in-finlandia/

Another good news is that I have been invited at the Robustos stand at the Helsinki's Book Fair. Robustos is the publisher of The Runokohtauksia anthology, I will be at the stand reading some of my poems from the anthology  the 23.10 from 12.00 to 12.30 and then I will be in an interview with Tommi Parkko at the Wine Cafè  stage from 14.00 to 14.30.

Runokohtaus was a multicultural project in which me and others not Finnish poets were involved. Finnish professional poets have translated our poems in Finnish. The city of the project is Turku.


So please welcome and come to say HI! If you are around..I will be very happy!


This is it for now!

ARE WE STRANGERS AT ALL?

As you whisper my name

I go in those prohibited places of my soul

feeling sometimes guilty

because the first time we met

I really couldn't stand you.

Now in my dreams you come

not anymore an unpleasant presence

you feed that long time doubt

and memories gathering around

You tell me stories

and every time I dream about you

I feel something...

Are we strangers at all?
