"The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock" è una poesia di T.S.Eliot, un autore del primo '900.
Cosa c'entra con me? Ve lo spiego subito. Quando abbiamo trattato l'argomento con la mia prof di inglese, lei non ci ha detto subito di cosa si trattava, ci ha detto solo che era una "love song" (un canto d'amore, insomma XD). Dopodichè ci ha chiesto di immaginarci come potesse essere e di scrivere la nostra Love song of J.A.P.
Io OVVIAMENTE non potevo mica astenermi dal renderla slash! XDD

Quindi ve la propino.
Ve la posto in versione originale, inglese. Poi se volete la traduco XD
Spero che vi piaccia!



Walking down the cobbles I heard
wind between the leaves
calling my name;
I turned around;
you stood there, a pretty girl with you
looking at each other, behind just the sea.

Sun shined in the twilight
on your hair, leaving
bronze on the bright brown
as a halo of grace, of pleasure.

Your eyelids covered the blue
you stole from the ocean,
from the sapphire;
your lips were full and red;
my desire took over,
and I left.

Then,
I kept asking
why.
I am a man
and so
are you.

But I've never seen a girl
who can be compared
with you.

So I kept asking
why
I had to be so sadly unlucky.
And I
tried to tell myself
that I was not in love
with another
guy.

On, and the truth
is so easy to face:
you'll never
love me
back.

And this love
that has lasted for months
is wearing me out
from the inside,
from my soul,
from my heart.

So I am
ready,
determined,
scared
and sad.

The knife in my hand,
I stole it from the butcher's
- and you
saw
me -,
is heavy.

And when I cut my throat
it's when I hear
a scream.
And the moment after
you are
here.
You ask
why.
You say
you don't want me
to die.
You cry
your love.
You hold
my body
cold.




PARERI, please!!!
