O amor
que é luz e viaja rápido
move a minha mão sobre o papel

Eu não vou mentir

minhas pernas ficam fracas
e eu caio
quando deveria me manter de pé.

Seus olhos
só eles
vêem através de mim
no chão.

Love
Which is light and travels fast
Moves my hand over the paper

I won’t lie

My legs go weak
I fall
When I should stand

Your eyes
And your eyes only
Allowed to see through me
On the floor.

  1. I see a hand moving across paper. Sunlight falling on it through the window. Writing poetry is an act of love.

    I so appreciate the vividness of this. A simple stillness. It's a quiet poem, if that makes any sense, and they are the best kind.
