Esperaba algo, no sabía que. La muerte susurraba sus canciones más bonitas en mi boca de amante impura y yo la besaba, jugando con ella, sin llegar a amarle como ella me pedía, sin llegar al sacrificio por ella deseado. Pero ella me amaba y me ama, y sus labios perfectos endulzan poco a poco mi corazón incapaz de amor. Tal vez este sea el primero.

I waited for something, I didn't know what. Death whispered their most beautiful songs in my mouth of impure lover and I kissed them, playing with them, not coming to love them like they asked me to, not getting to the sacrifice wished by them. But they loved me and love me, and their perfect lips sweeten little by little my heart uncapable of love. Maybe this will be the first one.
Very slightly related to the short prose poetry "Esperaba solo" by Luis Cernuda
