About Me

www.myspaceeditor.itVan Cleef è luomo che mi guarda allo specchio tutte le mattine; che mi dice che non sono capace; che mi dice che le mie donne in realtà erano tutte sue; che mi dice che non gli piace la mia faccia, non gli piacciono le mie mani; e il perché non l'ho ancora capito. Van Cleef è luomo che mi guarda fisso dallo specchio e mi dice che, in fondo, non valgo proprio niente.Van Cleef is the man who looks at myself in the mirror every morning; who tells me I'm not skilful; who tells me that all MY women were actually HIS women; who tells me he doesn't like my face, he doesn't like my hands; and I still don't know the reason why; Van Cleef is the man who stares at me from the mirror and tells me I ain't worth a fuck.
