La Sera dei Miracoli, Lucio Dalla

"E in mezzo a questo mare cercherò di scoprire quale stella sei."

La Sera dei Miracoli, Lucio Dalla

Turns out #Ulysses, just before he died, felt like a right idiot.

Because after all those adventures — all that sea, that wind, those absurd monsters and all those dark songs — he must have thought: why on earth did I put myself through all that for ten years without #Penelope?

I mean, if he'd just brought her along, he'd have had more fun, and everything would have been different.

The nights, the thousands of millions of stars at the bow, the wind through her impossibly long hair, the horizons getting further away yet still within reach — with her, though.

Learning to know each other, and all those unknown things that could certainly be a bit scary — but come on, wouldn't it be worth living them, knowing them, and then recognising them together?

Maybe on a stormy night, or on a gust of #sirocco — warm, southern, wrapping you up.

Those mountains made of lava, all those monsters that, looking back, were and are and will always be inside them — but #together, maybe, you learn how to fight them. Maybe with a caress, or inside a long, tight, beautiful hug that's always new.

Or three thousand #kisses, like.

Because who says #Ithaca can't be found inside a wonderful smile, on any ordinary morning, in any place you like.

And Penelope, obviously.
