The Lovers

The lovers unvoice themselves.
Love is the finest silence,
the most trembling, the most unbearable.
The lovers seek,
the lovers are the ones who abandon,
the ones who change, te ones who forget.
 

Their heart tells them that they will never find,
they don't find, they seach.
The lovers walk around like crazy,
because they are alone, alone, alone,
granting, giving themselves every time,
crying because they can't save love.
 

The are concerned about love. The lovers
live by the day, they can't do more, they don't know.
The are always leaving,
always, to somewhere.
They wait
They wait for nothing, but they wait.
 

They know that they will never find.
Love is the perpetual extension,
always the next step, another, another.
Lovers are the insatiable ones,
the ones that always —and that's good— must be alone.
The lovers are the hydra of the story.
 

They have snakes instead of arms.
The veins in their neck swell
also like snakes to suffocate them.
Lovers can't sleep
because if they do, the worms eat them.
In darkness they open their eyes
and fear falls on them.
They find scorpions under their sheet
and their bed floats as if on a lake.
 

Lovers are crazy, just crazy,
without God and without devil.
Lovers leave their caves
trembling, hungry,
to hunt ghosts.
They laugh at people who know everything,
at those who love in perpetuity, truly,
at those who believe in love
as a lamp of inexhaustible oil.
 

Lovers play to grab water,
to tatoo the smoke, to not leave.
They play the long, the sad game of love.
Nobody has to resign.
They say no one must resign.
The lovers are ashamed of all conformation.
Empty, but empty from one rib to the other,
death ferments behind their eyes,
and they walk, they cry until dawn
in which trains and roosters say goodbye painfully.
 

Sometimes they notice a scent o newborn dirt,
of women who sleep with the hand on their sex,
pleased,
of riverbeds of tender water and kitchens.
Lovers begin to sing between their lips
an unlearned song,
and they leave crying, crying,
the beautiful life.
