Words for our Nights (Fragments)


 
Una sola palabra tuya quiebra
la ciega soledad en mil pedazos.
- José Ángel Valente
for James
{...}
A coldness filters through
the memory of our subtle hands.
How have we come to existence?
With what unspoken image of eyes
has the instant lessened over our bodies? 
What fingertips now trace a forgotten path
beneath the skin we know and carry?

***

Already, the journey has become endless
for time has no shelter in our names.

***

Our voices are engraved
in the shadow of these muted words,
And our love has managed to escape
as we searched for its form.

  1. Las palabras de amor se nutren del silencio de la noche para cobrar vida entre las sombras, es un bello concepto; hay algo en tus letras y en tu forma de decir las cosas que le hace bien a mi alma.

    Te deseo un hermoso fin de semana Amanda.
