Fragile

Zerbrechlich/ Fragile/ Frágil Augenblicke zerrinnen in Einsamkeit, zerbrechlich, Hauch des Zweifels, zerbrechlich, wie Meißner Porzellan, vergangener Tage. Hingestreute Gedanken, verloren in kurzen Sätzen, Vergangenes ausgestreut und vergessen. Zerbrechliche Zukunft, lautloser Horizont, Meeresstille im Windschatten. Vergangene Tage, zerbrechlich wie Morgentau. Gegenwart aufgeschlagen im Buch der Stille, Tagträume, vergessen im Abendrot. ---------------------------------------------- Moments dwindle in fragile isolation, a touch of doubt, fragile, as Dresden china, of past days. Strewn thoughts, lost in short sentences, the past scattered and forgotten. Fragile future, silent horizon, calm sea in the lee. Past days, fragile as morning dew. Presence opened in the book of silence, daydreams, forgotten in the afterglow. -------------------------------------------------- Momentos disminuyen en soledad, frágil, en un tono dubitativo, frágil, como porcelana de Sajonia, de días pasados. Pensamientos esparcidos, perdido en frases cortas, el pasado esparcido y olvidado. Frágil futuro, horizonte silencioso, mar en calma a sotavento. Días pasados, frágil como el rocío de la mañana. El presente abierto en el libro del silencio, los sueños del día, olvidado en el anochecer ------------------------------------- Fragile Momenti diminuire da solo, fragile in tono esitante, fragile come porcellana di Sassonia, dei giorni passati. Pensieri sparsi perso in frasi brevi, diffusione scorso e dimenticato. Futuro fragile orizzonte silenzioso, mare calmo sottovento. Tempi andati, fragile come la rugiada del mattino. Questo aperta nel libro del silenzio, i sogni del giorno dimenticato nel buio
