IF YOU COULD HAVE
If you could have
eyes for my soul
maybe you wouldn’t stay
impassive to the tears of love,
you would guard my caresses
like heirlooms at the altar of life.
And if through time
you could lose your memory,
you would grant the memory
the nostalgia of desire
and in an instant the gurgling
of his footsteps dissolved in a dream.
LOVE EACH OTHER
Love each other as dreams love
the forbidden caresses of the night
and nature when it embraces
the seasons in their silence
follow one another over time.
Scatter shards of love
in the hearts of those around you
so that they can feel
renewed in tenderness.
Be love without respite
as a source of water
which crystalline flows uninterruptedly.
ROSE THORN
Woman, thorn of a rose that has never blossomed.
You weed that generates humanity,
blood and tears cover wounds,
origami of fragility on your body.
Drops gush from the womb
petals of love, spring oasis
in the void that disrupts silence.
Silent words flow from the heart
stripped of violated dreams
from the cruel grin of life.
Mindful expands in profusion
your rebellious soul,
reverberation of a primordial love.
Impetuous your swaying of the infinite sea.
