SEMI-FINAL POEM:

1.SIROČAD

Ljubavniče,
sa dosadnim rukama:
gubiš me i činiš me odsutnom.

Izloži
naše platno:
radosne uspomene
majke,
ćerke
i spletke- u suzama,
na blistavom tržištu.

Pomračuješ me
i činiš me suparnikom,
pred neprijateljskim očima braće koja su ti draga.
Prošli su nevinost, igre, trke, vile…

Naslikaj mi bahatost.
Pokaži mi,
između klupa, traženih i živih:
ruke, jezik, dušu i snove…
Suze i oluja
otkazaće svađe.

Siroče, činiš me kćerkom umjetnosti i poezije.
I, opraštam ti.
Fale mi tvoje mane,
da bude savršeno.

Udovica sam, praznih ruku.
Čuvam platno,
pozdravljam svice,
prosvjetljujem te
i opraštam si.

2.Orphans

Lover
with bored hands
you lose me and you make me absence.
Expose
our canvas
joyful memories
of mother
of daughter
and intrigues in tears
on blatant markets.
You eclipse me
and make me rival,
under enemy’s eyes of brothers dear to you.
Passed innocence, games, races, fairies.
Paint arrogance.
Teacher
between wanted and lived desks
hit hands, language, soul and dreams.
Tears and storm
cancel offenses.
Orphan, you make me a daughter of arts and poetry.
And I forgive you.
I miss your flaws
to be perfect.
Widow with empty hands
I keep the canvas
I welcome fireflies
enlighten you
and I forgive mysel

3.Orfane

Amante
dalle mani bucate
mi perdi e mi rendi lontananza.
Esponi
la nostra tela
gioente ricordi
di madre
di figlia
e gli intramagli nel pianto
su plateali mercati.
Mi eclissi e mi rendi rivale,
sotto occhi nemici di fratelli a te cari.
Tramuti innocenza, i giochi, le corse, le fate.
Dipingi arroganza.
Maestra tra banchi voluti e vissuti
bacchetti mani, lingua, anima e sogni.
Lacrime e bufera
cancellano le offese.
Orfana, mi rendi figlia di arti e poesia.
E ti perdono.
Mi mancano i tuoi difetti
per essere perfetta.
Vedova dalle mani vuote
conservo la tela
accolgo lucciole
ti illumino
e mi perdono.
