If you don’t wake up one day you’ll be sorry

If you don’t wake up one day you’ll be sorry:
for planting sorrow into your soul,
for every difficult words uttered
wounding somebody’s heart.

You’ll be sorry for every untouched love,
and for every desire undreamt of,
for every sunflower you’ve never kissed
in a sunflower garden lit by summer heat.

You’ll be sorry you never looked in Sun’s eyes,
never made love with the Moon,
because you never allowed yourself
to be born and reborn in you again.

You’ll be sorry you’ve never taken a bath in a cold river,
and never breathed salty air.
For walking the path leading to nowhere,
for dying in fears of a life you’ve lived.

You’ll be sorry for being afraid of love,
for torturing the child in you
for stopping to laugh, celebrate, embrace,
for not living by your dreams.

When you don’t wake up one morning, you’ll be sorry…
