SHIPWRECKS IN RED
To: my beloved angel
Red murmur
inquires - resigns
postponed silences
on the sounds
of your soul.
Red suggestion
of blacked venules
tempest - stilled
liquids trees;
bleed their roots
on shipwrecks of
words
and autumn leaves.
Will be carbuncle
the love?
Water night
pigmented scarlet,
foam gales
on the edge
raspberry and mint
defining your
shadow;
Converges
on moon´s reef
incandescent light
snow
pouring
on the tremulous
ruby from your
lips.

ONLY LOVE WILL PREVAIL
To my Darling: M.B. with love.
Only love will
prevail
When there is
nothing left,
When memory fades away
As scattered dust
On the wind.
Only my words will
speak
Of this love
leaving a
footprint
In silence,
To posterity…
For other times.
When my simple
name
Be erased over
time
And the words
remain
over withered
leaves.
Only my love for
you will prevail
In your skin of
verse,
In your skin of
rhyme,
On your prose skin
...
Forever and beyond
the eternity borders.

INSIGHTS
Taciturn I roam
in the sterile
fury of delirium,
carry my words
as single luggage.
Behind me…
Drive my
inconclusive
dreams, pain,
blind nostalgia.
Diluting rain
concentrating
my footsteps.
The wind recounts
it´s story.
I wait for
the glaring spikes
on diaphanous
voices,
coated with
infinity.
