DESIRE

Today is like these days

in which I awakened with you in my thoughts

and wanted to hug you in the wrapper of my I

and feel your breath, the boiling of your heart

I woke up with burning desires

of wanting to warm me by the light of your sweet look

by the warmth of your skin sensations

by the tenderness of your voice

by the musicality of your speaking

by the magnetism of your personality

Today, yes, it's like those days I wanted you so badly...

But you're not here,

and your presence in this impresence

is more remarkable than a simple desire

an imperative that makes resurrecting the poet in me

to dream more dreams of my imaginary world.
