Francesco’s poignant piece expresses a father’s deep yearning for a son’s unconditional love and comfort, finding solace in their innocent embrace.
Stay with me
hug me again, son,
take me today
inside your love
your innocent flesh.
I want to be loved
I ask for little
and that it always be my life
that taste of blood
that I carry in my heart.
Love me, son,
love me still
more intensely
now that my age
has become a child again.
