EMILY ( POETICAL DELIRIUM )A Poem by The Brazilian PoetHow I feel Emily's death! No word to say, sorry...Three times I called her aloud: Emily, Emily, Emily - where are you? I had no answer to my despaired calling I only heard the chanting of the birds The murmur of the river, nothing else... I walked into the jungle for a long time I hurt myself with thorns, and many snakes They ran after me, and the monkeys They looked at me with deep mistrust: Of course I was not in my kingdom... But Emily suddenly disappeared from home And before to go to the jungle, I looked for her In all the places, in all the corner - but she Simply disappeared as the sun when The dark night with its nightmare has come! Emily, Emily, Emily - where are you? Why did you vanish? Why don't you answer me? Do you want to make me mad? O Yes, Do you want me to commit suicide? Do you want me to hang myself on a tree? Ah! Emily, Ah! My sweet Emily: don't go away From my imagination: you are my muse! What will I do without you in my life - sweet dream, Sweet woman, in your grave I sleep dear Me and my vodka, we sleep together, beside you... © 2020 The Brazilian Poet |
