MISSING YOU

 

I’ve had something to eat

and something to drink,

there was plenty of food

on the marble table.

The wine was wonderful,

the fragrance of the flowers incredible,

and heavenly music played.

And yet something was missing…

 

You were missing, my darling,

yes, missing from this table was you!

I don’t know where you are

or where you might be,

in what town,

in what city,

in what country,

but I know that you exist.

 

You were missing, my darling,

but I know that you are waiting for me,

somewhere,

with your sleeping lips.

One day, life or God Almighty

will guide us

and we’ll find each other.

I wait for you now, anxiously.

 

I know that you exist,

that you want me, just like I want you.

I know that you like music,

wine and food.

It doesn’t matter how beautiful

the country is,

if you’re not there, my darling.
