Return

The Space Between Us

Between us there is air
Lots of air
Between the black of the asphalt
and the black of the moon
there's air

Now you tell me
how does it make you feel
to see me
turning myself into air
vanishing
Like the water from the kettle
Like everything else on a sunny day
All gone

Like some small rounded black pieces of paper
floating in the air
in a really, really windy day
in a high speed

Why can't they be colored?
because they are the moon
a thousand moons
when the lights are turned off
(the Sun, I mean)

Now
To return is not to faint
Using an airbrusher to mimic colored spots
is not the right way
But they will start changing color
in a very smooth way
as soon as I'll reach land

And you will see them
passing through your window
Just once
