You Brush My Row

Walking through the gardens of your eyes

I see the flower of your mildness

That smells like green-tea;

Somehow remaining

My soul as quiet

As that impassive book

Holding my breath

My heart tiptoes, yet;

Just waiting

To be opened

Just willing

To be

read

I’m here

 

Routine draining as

Your golden thoughts

Flies whipping my eyes

While quietly

I sink into the next day

 

An emptied glass

And a restless city

Watering the petals of my past

As insomnia breeds

Stillness

 

Holding my breath

I hear my heart beating

One drum here and each echo

The stars named, so do I

 

I open the window of my soul

The sun slips through my eyes

And yet, I hear the echoes…

And yet, it’s only them, and I

 

Hey! Spread your wings

And hit the road of the present

‘Cause your core is ready

To listen to the sounds of your spirit

To perceive the caress of peace

To appreciate the blossom of sensitivity

Paz

 

Hoy quiero un acuerdo por unos segundos

Entre aquellos odios cargados de tiempo

Y tal vez mañana sumemos un riego

A aquel verde campo de orden y calma

 

Hoy tan solo hilvano un fino deseo

Entre aquellos seres que aman la tregua

Y aunque a veces llamen ecos de violencia

Los dejemos solos hablando al vacío

 

Nadie pide mucho, tan solo un descanso

Una alianza breve de tan solo un lapso

Tal vez de a puñados ganemos reposo

Y los corazones se adapten al gozo

 

Y cuando ese bosque de olivos crecientes

Unan con sus ramas los frutos divinos

Y reconciliados con Tierra y raíces

Beban armisticio en asenso conjunto

 

Nos acostumbremos a amar con el alma

Desde el corazón que alimenta la vida

Y nos enamore el sosiego del cielo

Y que nos cautive la paz del ocaso
