Una de las canciones que ha marcado mi vida es Polish Poem interpretada por Chrysta Bell y escrita por David Lynch. Esta canción es el tema principal del que es hasta la fecha su último largometraje, INLAND EMPIRE (sí, en mayúscula). Todavía me acuerdo ese marzo del 2007 en los cines Luchana de Madrid, en la oscuridad del cine, solo, llorando a lágrima viva mientras escuchaba esta preciosa melodía.

Os dejo un vídeo que tiene tan solo un fotograma estático de la película. Os recomiendo cerrar los ojos y dejaos llevar por su cadencia, su sensibilidad y su potencia contenida:





La letra. Ojalá os embruje como lo ha hecho conmigo:

"I sing this poem to you...
On the other side, I see…
Shining waves flowing.
It's far away, far away from me,
I can see it there
I can see it there
the wind blows outside and I have no breath,
I breathe again and know I'll have to live
To forget my world is ending.
I have to live…
I hear my heart beat,
Fluttering in pain, saying something,
Tears are coming to my eyes -
I cry…I cry…
I cannot feel the warmth of the sun
I cannot hear the laughter
Choking with every thought,
I see your faces,
My hands are tied as I wish -
But no one comes,
No one comes,
Where are you?
Where are you?
What will make me want to live?
What will make me want to love?
Tell me, …tell me…

I sing this poem to you …to you…
Is this mystery unfolding
As a wing floating?
Something is coming true -
The dream of an innocent child…

Something is happening -
Something is happening..."


Un cordial saludo
