Volgendo uno sguardo dalla finestra
Verso la gente che sa’ dove sei
Ma non ti vuole
Immaginando parole di comprensione
Verso coloro che racchiudi nel tuo cuore
Ma sai che non ci sono
Pensando nel vuoto
Verso un buio che non vede luce
Ma sa’ che non ci sarà dopodomani
Provando un vuoto
Che non sai riempire di sentimenti
Ma sai che sei solo
Ti rivolgi verso un lontano ieri
Il braciere e il mattone
Per non essere solo
Prendendo un Bukowski e Carver
Trovi la compagnia
E non sei più solo

The Loneliness of Grandparents
Taking a look out the window
Towards the people who know where you are
But don’t want you there
Imagining words of understanding
Towards those you hold dear
But you know they are not there
Staring at emptiness
Towards a darkness that will see no light
But knows there will not be an after-tomorrow
Feeling a void
That you don’t know how to fill
Knowing that you are alone
Turning towards a far away yesterday
Sensing the brazier and the brick
But feeling even more alone
Holding a Bukowski or a Carver
Finding the companionship
Not to be alone








Weeks passed. I could not shake the feeling that I was a quitter. I had to see this through. I had to be strong. I would get the watch out, and link I would come at it with a new strategy … which link was getting my boyfriend to link put it together.
The same goes for the technical fact link that this mechanical ballet is powered by an exclusive 117-component Hermès module featuring a simultaneous display of the lunar phases for link the Northern link and Southern Hemispheres.
While I link love a center-seconds hand, I do think the small-seconds display looks really nice on here and lends itself to the classicism of the third bit of excitement: the 8mm thickness. I never link really considered the Alpine Eagle to be a thick watch but it makes sense, given the sort of market Chopard plays in, that the brand would go for thinness in the AE line. Just how thin is 8mm on the wrist? link It'll be on the trade show floor this week at Watches & Wonders, so we'll know very soon.
One of the vintage Panerai straps from DaLuca is called 'Bunker Hill Revolt'! Although violent scenes from link WWII link movies come to mind,the strap at least looks impressive and indeed made from leather that has been in or around link bunkers during that time..
This celebratory watch will be link limited to 188 pieces. In link addition to the aforementioned features, the watch also sports an applied rose-gold colored infinity loop, which the brand says is symbolic of Jack Heuer's birthday. It comes on a black alligator leather strap which also bears Jack's signature in gold lettering. The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Jack Heuer Birthday Gold Limited Edition is available link for pre-order now, and to purchase in March, 2021.
