no hay hornos suficientes en el mundo
para que reduzcas a cenizas las abejas y las flores de mi alma
porque el fuego eterno es mi corona
cada horno me inflama y me crece
mis arquitectos son las llamas.
VIA LUCIS
No expreso.
Escribo para crear el silencio.
La escritura es ante todo silencio.
Te escribo para hacer silencio.
Acepto sobrevivir así
Ovens are not enough in this world
to make ash of the bees and the flowers of my soul
because the eternal flames are my crown
each oven sets me on fire and I grow
flames are my architects
VIA LUCIS
Without putting in words.
I write to create the silence.
Writing is before all the silence.
I write you to make silence.
I also accept to outlast
