I Live For Her

Cinnamon and apple fill the air Scent of Gram's famous pie Warm fire roaring in the hall Music turned up for all to hear "Vivo per lei da quando sai La prima volta l’ho incontrata, Non mi ricordo come ma Mi è entrata dentro e c’è restata. Vivo per lei perché mi fa Vibrare forte l’anima, Vivo per lei e non è un peso. Vivo per lei anch’io lo sai E tu non esserne geloso, Lei è di tutti quelli che Hanno un bisogno sempre acceso, Come uno stereo in camera, Di chi è da solo e adesso sa, Che è unico per lui, per questo Io vivo per lei....." Thoughts of you ring in my mind Playing the music in my soul A burning desire Making my heart beat strong Vivo per lei I live for her My warmth, my breath, my soul Taking my lonely Making it whole My heartbeat, my strength, my home From the depths of my heart to your soul My vision, my meaning, my know Even though far, we really are near Oceans apart but I feel your touch Sweet music is all that I hear Whispering I love you so much
*** "Vivo per lei" by Andrea Bocelli ***

the way you filled out the body of thought was excellent. creative word choices, a hint of bocelli's refrain,and the ascending draw toward a conclusion was great, tim... huggs

I was introduced to the music of Bocelli this summer when I was in Italy -- he is performing December 11 here in Dallas and we are planning on going -- your poem has made this very special -- now I am hungry for apple pie alamode with an espresso! A big Italian man hug and kiss (on the cheeks -- face cheeks) my friend!
