Poems: Black shadow... [Explanation in International Sign] Bibliographic record

When I think that you left,
black shadow that amazes me, 
at the foot of my bed,
you come back to make fun of me.

When I imagine that you have gone,
in the sun itself you appear to me,
and you are the star that shines,
and you are the wind that hums.

If someone sings, you are the one who is singing,
if someone cries, you are the one who is crying
and you are the ripple of the river,
and you are night and you are dawn.

You are in everything and you are everything,
for me and in me myself you dwell,
you will never abandon me,
black shadow that always amazes me.
