Poem -

until I see you again

for Marco Vinicio, my friend

until I see you again

it will be then as
if we never parted
as if never existed 
     streets, cities, countries and seas
     to separate us
 
we will make the usual visits
we will gather together again
     your peculiarities with mine
        to be accompanied
to sit at the table
  on a Saturday or a Sunday
to drink coffee and in between talks
devour the leftovers of
lunch or breakfast
 
we will go for a walk
to cover streets both sides
step by step we will fill them
      with anecdotes and narratives
      by word of mouth
of facets of our childhood or
of that youth that arduously
      we were building or
about the maturity we reached
     without realizing
we will exchange opinions
     comment on books and music
     talk about personalities
        we have met
we will share confidences and
     maybe as well, confessions
 
it will get late talking about things
      we still want to do
we will insist on that trip
     we never made together
the trip of life’s adventure
     that one we always considered
         a gift, with its good days and
         those others
         to make it more meaningful
I will tell you that I admire you
pointing at your gifts and abilities
you will do the same
we will argue to conclude
   it is better to be as we are
nevertheless, as usual
we will be proud of each other
 
we always looked for each other
we always found each other
even unintentionally, that’s why
we no longer said goodbye
but my dear friend
now you embark on a new journey
your train has left
   without our saying farewell
I am left with so many things
  we could have talked about and
  also shared
 
the love of friendship remains
ours and the one we granted 
   by sharing family and friends
in memory will echo
    your voice and all we lived
    in this so overflowing friendship
    we always provided to each other
all as usual, my dear friend
until I see you again!
(as we say goodbye no longer)
