I wanted to be who I am
space Navigator,
constellation creator
symmetry builder.
No matter the adversities,
the sad songs of the afternoons,
the storms that have shaken
my life.
My veins are rivers that come together
in a single channel in the arms
of humanity they embrace
the world.
An empty cross crucifies birds
in the shadows, like a loneliness
stuck in the thorns.
The bitter palate of the human being
hide truths, even if they try
to spit honey through the pores.
I wanted to be who I am
a child plays inside my chest,
From there, see how his face ages.
how the years shorten
I am a ship on the high seas adrift
birds nest in the masts
of time, that cross the sea
with me
Come be born the lights and the shadows
the love of the anchored port
in the heart.
metaphors are indomitable birds
they explode in the sallow dawn,
sheltering the roofs still sleepy
from the old city.
I wanted to be who I am
perhaps... a poet's apprentice.
