Daniela Iacoppi

I'm lying here
Thinking of You.

I'm not allowed.
...

I'm fine, I'm OK.
(I think of you night and day)
I see the stars,
I feel the sun.
...

Joy's gone.
S(he) left through the back door,
Make it right.
Close my eyes,
...

Desire,
My secret vice.
Passion,
His clear blue eyes.
...

Use(less) memories.
What is (un) Important
Is I.
...

Little Tim(e)
Wo(n) ts.
Enough, (f) or happ(in) ess
...

Black lashes
Hide (a) (m) irror(e) d soul
C(r) ush(e) d (c) ruelly
T(o) a pulp.
...

Own(ly) a second.
The turning point.
Something (un) said.
Words slice through my head.
...

Ti(me) up.
In judgement,
I'm boun(d) t(o) ful
(On) Down
...

I don't want to be a bonus.
The consolation for a life you consider erroneous.
I don't want to be the spice that brings flavour to your family recipe.
A simple additive for your nuclear serenity.
...

I try to convince myself I'll do it. Alone.
That I have the backbone.

The truth is, you see.
...

I'm a parentheses in your life.
A post scriptum.
Waiting,
Hoping,
...

Je refuse d'accepter la façon dont tu m'as traité.
Tu restes de marbre,
Le mépris de ton silence est impardonnable.
D'une cruauté rare, c'est une action qui correspond à une personne avare.
...

Tu me laisses sur lu,
Tu ne m'aimes plus.
La lune de miel arrive à sa fin,
Un miel aux fleurs de larmes.
...

Keep (the) masses (fight) ing
Wh(i) le the pot get(s) hot.
We're all in it,
But we don't see it.
...

I'm wallowing in the last droplets of my glass of wine
And a river of self pity.
Wondering,
What makes my melancholy?
...

Nose is (blood) red
From tears (shed)
In my inebriated Paradise
Of (un) survival
...
