Uplift

Синьорина Белиссима
It's been a certain shift
From what we used to do
Betraying the way we were
We soared high in uplift.

Before maniacally shy
We nourished on the sly
Strong wings within the walls
Of barred, depressive wards.

And nothing could betray us
But for our starry eyes
Concealing the depth of lakes
And hiding from mean fakes.

That would not last forever,
Unbearable was the strain
So that the day I met you
I thought of the sky to gain.

The stars I saw in your eyes
And your unfolded wings
Took me above old limits
To which the whole world clings.

You stretch yourself too far.
You're generous to share
The cosmos of your own
With me and the heaven fair.
