Like a wave
English translation ©
Margarethe Alexandroni
Like a wave lapping against the shore,
you are resting with me.
When I caress you with my hand
the ocean inside you trembles.
The deep ocean, that bore you.
Come to me, come close,
the deep that became you.
This thing that trembles inside you
is your heart,
your very human heart.
you are resting with me.
When I caress you with my hand
the ocean inside you trembles.
The deep ocean, that bore you.
Come to me, come close,
the deep that became you.
This thing that trembles inside you
is your heart,
your very human heart.
