My Poems

Leaves of fall      Do not lie to yourself

  Through her window   Do you believe?

Acknowledgements

Leaves of fall 

 Your hands have labored so much..
Your eyes have looked at hundreds of places,
They have slowly searched
Some woman's body...your woman's,
Your mouth, which has kissed thousands of times,
Seeks, in your golden nightfall
The fresh water that will sate its thirst.
Your arms, which have felt the years,
In your body they wish to be seen again..
You look at me tenderly, as
Someone who discovers a dewdrop
In the honeys of the morning.
Your heart, your "foolish" heart..as you call it,
Loves me.
And I do not know why..I am loving you also.

Do not lie to yourself

How can I not love you, how can I not desire you,
If every sigh of yours
I take in my hands
And feel it mine, and make it mine?

You ask me not to kiss you,
Yet knowingly you offer
Your mouth, sweet and tender..

..not to search for you,
yet your silhouette is etched
in every corner of the planet..

..not to look at you,
yet your eyes never stop watching me,
searching the core of my soul
and asking, screaming, for me to LOVE YOU!

Through her window

Through her window, each day seems the same.
The Sun, the marketplace, the streets, the people..
Everything in the same place...
It has been like that sometime now..
She has lost count
Since that day of  deeper cold
Her love, not waiting
Had departed...
She wept, disconsolate, his death .
And she damned it..
She sighed for hours thinking that
Her breath of hope
Would place him again next to her.
But the dark shadows of the sunset
Did make that miracle impossible..
Hours passed, months and years..
And she lived without light, with anger and deception...

But one morning, one specially warm,
She looked out that window in confusion..
Her lover returned?...or was she dreaming?...
And she, who once damned Death,
Took her lover's hand and silently
Blessed Death.

Do you believe?

My beloved, if there was no Time or Space between us,
Could you then believe that at night, on some star,
we could love each other?
If the alluring Moon shines on you every night....
could you then believe that, if I asked her, she would give you my
kisses?
Do you believe in coincidences, in pre-destined meetings?
Do you believe my words when I express my Love for you
and when I sigh at evenfall?

I leave you, quietly, so you may answer.....
do not hurry....I await.

Thanks Manuel Gutiérrez for the traslation poems... and thank you, Ángel Raúl to insist that I translate into English.
