Gabriele D'Annunzio | Rimani! / Stay!

Rimani! Riposati accanto a me.

Non te ne andare.

Io ti veglierò. Io ti proteggerò.

Ti pentirai di tutto fuorchè d'essere venuto a me, liberamente, fieramente.

Ti amo. Non ho nessun pensiero che non sia tuo;

non ho nel sangue nessun desiderio che non sia per te.

ripetendo ogni giorno gli stessi percorsi,

chi non cambia la marca o colore dei vestiti,

chi non rischia,

chi non parla a chi non conosce.
