Once upon a time I would have wandered

For the place and time of inspiration

But how long has it been

Since the sun and the moon have seen my smile

It wasnt in the spring

Where the chirping birds

Only reminded me of my loss and of you

Nor in the winter or the fall

As I tried, maybe just a little to hard

To please anyone, someone but me

But here in this giardino

While my face only shows concentration

A faceless smile, open teeth and all

Reminds me of the lost years and happiness
