Words of Love and Hope

I´d have to be a superfluous not realize that I love you. You fill all my ambitions. You are half of what I don't know and of what I ignore. I found you one afternoon as someone who finds a small round stone and holds it for life. You are the roads that I had not walked yet and the villages in which I had not been before. I am going to give you this day and this night the best of me, knowing that, without asking, I will receive the best of you; which is also the best thing that has happened to me.

You are the mirror in which I look at myself and you’re the dialogues I imagined. You´re the accompanied loneliness I was lacking since a long time ago; you erase my sadness and my melancholy, or rather, you rearrange them; You are all I needed. You are the laughter and the silence, the unexpected and what I was waiting for.

You are the one who knows everything. When we dance you’re the rhythmic and the sensitive one; I am the clumsy, the rough, the one with two left feet. It’s your body that couples well to mine, and it’s mine that mates poorly with yours. And that's why I love you, and maybe that's why, I guess, you love me; or if you don't, at least, you tolerate me.

You could say... You don't love me, that you've only got used to me, and that you don't need me; and I could say... I love you, but I could also say I don´t. Because I had not known love before, and because I did not understand love and it was not presented to me as this before.

But really, I do love you for who you really are, and I love you for what I am, for the one I become when I am with you. I love you for who I am when I am not with you; because then, I am the same or even better than when I am with you; and then, I only have one fear, that when you are not with me, you will be much better, because then you’d know that you don’t need me and that I hinder you and halt you.

Today I have no place where to go other than the place where you are; and if I say Goodbye, it’s not that I want to say it. I only say goodbye to know if you will stay or if you will simply cross the threshold of the door.

But I can leave whenever you want, when you decide so; and you can stay with me for as long as you want, because I have not bought the time for you to stay with me, and because I have nothing more to give you than what you see, what I am, this one I have become, all because you are... with me.

 How things Are going Up There?

How things are going up there?

Isn´t it strange?

You´re going to have dinner

then read and going to bed

Here I am lazing. I just woke up

and lunch is still far away.

You end a day and I´ll start just to think

what I am going to do today.

 

You don´t love me

Probably neither I do.

Love is a concept

And a mania too.

You are fourteen hours away

Three meridians and one

Tropic of Cancer divide us.

 

Twelve thousand miles are a barrier

That separate us by sea, by air.

¿How can love persist if it is true

that it could exist...?

 

I am convinced

that love is a believe

for believers to believe.

 

Then it doesn´t matters

if there are meridians, tropics,

continents or oceans that separate

lovers that believe.
