First lie

 

I will die someday

But, unfortunately, I do not die of love for a lie.

Far from you, my love, I'll be in space

Because you will dilute yourself in the veins of the tides.

 

In the salty saliva of your suffered body,

You will depart. From now the machines crush me,

Interrupting my sleep,

Awakening me from the dream of dwelling in live sand.

 

On the clear course of corals and

In the belly of the nocturnal forests,

I want to forget the loneliness that has its cruel days.

I tried to be yours, to love you and not see the social faux.

 

But I could not be big and die with you.

You are the white moons that silver

Your deep voice in silk waters.

Restless and calm waters that pulsed through my body.

 

In my mouth a taste of brine will remain

And the untrue destruction over love.

In my sorrowful body this chant will stay

With the few words that I sing to you.
