Choosing the sun

Yesterday I found a sorrow. It was resting in that dark corner. It wasn't asleep, it was just waiting for me to come there, close to the melancholy. I gazed it and stayed for a while, a smooth candle light was lighting it up. I turned my eyes and saw the sun coming through my window... I went to the balcony and felt the fresh morning air beating my face. I took a deep breath and heard a laughter and my sorrow flied to another place.
I'll find it soon again for sure . Then I'll look for another sunbeam.

Fragancias

Rakkauslaulut joita lauloit minulle
lepäävät sen talon iholla
ja kyyneleet jotka lojuvat odottaen varjojen joukossa
himmentävät päivää jona lähdit pois


Älää pelkää pahoin haavoittunutta sielua
koska ruumiini oli vääntynyt tuhansissa taisteluissa
ja ilma joka kevyesti hyväilee poskeasi
tuo tuoksuja jotka huojentavat ja taltuttavat minua


Polulla jota kävelimme niinä päivinä
ei ole muuta kuin vanhoja kiviä
ja kukat joita sieltä toit
lepäävät tänään haavaisilla käsilläni

...................................................

Las canciones de amor que me cantaste
reposan en la piel de aquella casa
y las lágrimas que acechan en las sombras
oscurecen el día en que marchaste


No temas por un alma malherida
que mi cuerpo se ha fraguado en mil batallas
porque el aire que acaricia tus mejillas
trae fragancias que me alivian y me amansan


Del camino que anduvimos esos días
ya no quedan mas que piedras desgastadas
y las flores que tomaste allí prestadas
hoy reposan en mis manos doloridas

...................................................

That love songs you sang for me
rest in the skin of that house
and the tears that lie in waiting for among the shadows
obscure the day you went away


Don't be afraid for a badly wounded soul
because my body was forged in thousand battles
and the air that lightly touches your cheeks
brings fragances that relieve and tame me


From the path we walked on those days
there are nothing but old stones
and the flowers you borrowed there
rest today in my sore hands

This is because of my "hermanita" Sofy... she gives me things that any other can't give. Thanks Sofia
