Gacela of the Remembrance of Love

Do not carry your remembrance.

Leave it, alone, in my breast,

 

tremor of a white cherry tree

in the torment of January.

 

There divides me from the dead

a wall of difficult dreams.

 

I give the pain of a fresh lily

for a heart of chalk.

 

All night long, in the orchard

my eyes, like two dogs.

 

All night long, quinces

of poison, flowing.

 

Sometimes the wind

is a tulip of fear,

 

a sick tulip,

daybreak of winter.

 

A wall of difficult dreams

divides me from the dead.
