The full moon
through the open window
has drawn a white beam of light
in the darkness of my bedroom
tonight
that light ray
coming from so far away
like an open eye allows me
to see just some
of the familiar objects
since long there
all the others stay unseen
unreachable
well as when
I try to perceive
the hidden emotions
in the hearts of the people
around me or
going through the world
or scrutinize
with my inner eye their souls
to understand the reasons
of their certainties and fears
so well concealed
in the hazy caves of their hearts
but just some grains of truth
I can seize
like distant planets
in the cosmic void
the motions of their souls
Great my ambition
to know the unfathomable
slight the chance
to cover long distances
