If you must be a suffering love
I prefer you to be a longed for love,
if you must be a tormented love
I prefer you to be an impossibile love
for it is too far of a love
it's a love too difficult
a little too untrue
to be love.
If it were true love
mountains would be hills
the gusts of wind
only slight breezes
the seastorms
only lake waters
slightly rippled.
If it were true love
there would be neither excuses nor fears
uncertainties or second thoughts
obstacles and difficulties.
If it were true love …
if it were true love …

Ahhh!
Only if it were true love!
