La mente se resiste a olvidar las cosas hermosas,
Se aferra a ellas y olvida todo lo doloroso,
Mágicamente anonadada por la belleza.
-Gioconda Belli, Esto es amor –
Falls gently,
As a faithful lover caress,
As a faithful lover caress,
The rain on my window,
Leaving in its wake,
Small drops of hope.
The smell of wet grass,
Intoxicates my senses,
electricity,
thunder,
Sighs.
On the horizon
Your reflection,
rainbow,
Sighs.
Memories of skin,
Sap and saliva,
Humidity and caress,
Wet soil
Seeds planted.
Window
coffee,
Blankets on their shoulders,
Memories of your skin,
It rains.
