The Epiphany
It's 5 a.m. It's dark and cold.
I couldn't sleep, I'm getting old...
Through the window I quickly look,
Nobody...so...back to my book...
The hours passes, the sun is up
I let my book down and stood up.
Suddenly I feel a shiver down my spine
I'm being spied, I'm sure of that or I'm not fine.
Sad and resigned that I couldn't find
What was that feeling, I myself aligned,
When ready to leave my home, I opened the door
And a beautiful creature appeared before!
I couldn't believe my eyes... Such ore!
My weaknesses were gone; young to core!
My heart started beating fast, but I was frozen
My voice dissapered, yet I thought i was chosen!!
She smiled and looked at me with thoughtful eyes
And after that said: "I am the one that spies
On you every morning when you go to the window..
I see you sad.. sad and alone... and I'm a poor widow.."
Stoned I was... I invited her in.
We talked, we got together and I gave her gin!
For the first time in my whole life
I told her all my thoughts; I was alive!!
After some months we got married and had a child.
We were a lovely couple; life was wild.
But one day, out of nowhere, our lovely, little house
Was silent like a grave...and suddenly in bed I rouse...
It was another nightmare...
And I was not aware...
It's 5 a.m. It's dark and cold.
I couldn't sleep, I'm getting old...
Through the window I quickly look,
Nobody...so...back to my book...
