And I'm whispering to you
If I love you in syllables
It's because I see you
Some nights, in my dream
Where you dress me in silk caresses.
It's because I'm scared
I'll wake up and lose you
Scared I might forget you completely.
And if I'm speaking to you with a voice
The skies don't hear,
It's because you've become
A smiling photograph
Colored absence, full of water.
It's that I caress
Your jacket at night
And I wear the caresses, as black buttons.
It's because I can't find
In any path
The gravel of the return.
Become fire to look at you
Become song in the mouth
Become celebration to lose myself
Hide everywhere so I can find you.
