These solitary hills have always been dear to me. <br />Seated here, this sweet hedge, which blocks the distant horizon opening inner silences and interminable distances. <br />I plunge in thought to where my heart, frightened, pulls back. <br />Like the wind which I hear tossing the trembling plants which surround me, a voice from the inner depths of spirit shakes the certitudes of thought. <br />Eternity breaks through time, past and present intermingle in her image. <br />In the inner shadows I lose myself, <br />drowning in the sea-depths of timeless love.<br /><br />Giacomo Leopardi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/infinite/
