Words from the heart

padre,

A mio per le parole che non ci siamo detti perchĂŠ i nostri cuori erano troppo lontani dai nostri occhi.

Merci Ă Annalice Clavarino pour sa traduction.

To my father for the words that we did not tell each other because our hearts were too far from our eyes.

My name is CÊcile and I have a lot to say, but I don’t know how to do it.

I never find the words, and I can’t make myself understood.

Sometimes words still want to come out but, when that happens,.

no one is listening what I mean.

The big ones, they are always too busy, they do not have

time to listen and words get lost without ever being able to return.

It can also happen that the words remain trapped in the head, in the mouth and in the heart.

So, I take my colored pencils and I write the imprisoned words.

Words in color are more beautiful, they fly away like butterflies.

Maybe now nobody listens to them, but I’m glade of my words in color, especially the ones I have in my heart.

Sometimes even my friends have words they can’t express.

So we remain in silence, but we can understand each other,

because sometimes a glance is enough.

I think even the eyes talk, laugh, cry, play.

They are lucky, the eyes: there are two of them and they can keep each other company, while the mouth is alone, at the bottom, in the middle of the face, and the nose doesn’t talk.

Even the heart is alone, also in the middle of the body.

And when the heart and the mouth feel alone, they talk to each other.

It may be how are born

the words the most beautiful, those who come from the heart.

TIORDNE’L À RESNEP RUOP SETNOC

My name is Cécile and I have a lot to say, but I don’t know how to do it.

I can never find the words, and I can’t make myself understand.

Sometimes, again, the words would like to come out but when they do, no one listens to what I want to say.
