I Will Return
Into the translucent silence,
above the heartbeat of the stars
and the flight of the seagulls,
I will return with the gentle sky
Like the breeze that ruffles the forest
or the moon that peeks through the night,
and no matter how autumn dies there will always be a spring,
in the same way I will return
On the thought that crosses time
and lives on from its balconies,
like the pollen ...

Everything Flees and Returns
Everything flees and returns,
everything subsists and vanishes,
everyone talks and no one listens
The night grows opaque with distress,
ice and fire lash out drought
against hope
Besieged by man,
the moonlight has ceased to appear;
a world of muted landscapes
where sadness is perpetuated forever,
that is to say death...
Souls are broken
and no one absorbs the pain of misery,

My Words
My words emerge
from a desolate city
that the kindly night welcomes
and in it they find their dwelling place
Words of enchantment

from constriction and sacrifice,
from men who destroy with their bullets,
from the trampling of the spirit,
from pain and injustice
As of today, I will search for the forests of April,
for fireflies that light the ...

Oh, my homeland
Oh, my homeland
I don't know how to define you,
whether it is your land or your people,
some abstract idea
or those who now are absent
Oh, my homeland
you died from lack of conscience,
an unusual detachment;
they sold your freedom for coins
that today do not even pay
your burial with of grace
Those of us who loved you
and in fact we still do,
are left in limbo,
in deep agony,
th...
