FOREST OF PEACE

 Mysterious forest

that the memory

from my youth

In your name brings

 

Forest of Peace...

 

How many times in the dark

of your night shadows

we met in classes

in a legion of friends

 

In the light of the moon...

 

we lit fires

among your branches

We went out numb to the street

Drunk on wine and whiskey

like lost children

in the dark of night

 

Lush forest,

that the memory

from my youth

In your name brings

 

Forest of Peace...

 

In the shade of your trees,

In the shy meeting of lovers

Feel the sweet exhale of flowers

In the dance of floating embers

 

From the ends burning my fingers...

In the numb enjoyment of secrets

of a time

That doesn't come back anymore...

forest of peace

I have only one certainty

in the green that hides your beauty

Among its woods and grass

in the depth of your saps

 

left the memory

that in my memory

neither one brings

Forest of Peace
