Unstable Desire

It wasn’t you--who promissed scripted moments,
Something different from the routine.
It wasn’t you--who deceived me with her showy behavior,
Dancing in the rain with high heels.
And I met you by chance.
Your car didn’t start.
“I’m sorry. Can you come help me?”
A minute later, you kissed me as if it were nothing--
Like watching me die while you drink coffee.
But I pretended to be indifferent.
 
You’re the song that I don’t know how to sing,
This wound that I don’t know how to heal,
The chocolate that makes me happy
Or, perhaps, the grapes that I don’t know how to reach.
You’re the habit that I don’t want seen,
The pain that makes me feel
Out all my lives, you are the worst.
For all this, you are essentially
Unstable Desire
 
I wasn’t me--who interupted the sense of things.
The abuse loses coherence…
It wasn’t me--who erased a life written by hand.
Gambling with two splashes of perfume…
And you met me by chance
Just like you had met so many others--
Actors who do not play the lead in your film.
But, a minute later you kissed me,
As if it were nothing
Like watching me die while you drink coffee
But I pretended to be indifferent.
 
You’re the song that I don’t know how to sing,
This wound that I don’t know how to heal,
The chocolate that makes me happy
Or, perhaps, the grapes that I don’t know how to reach.
You’re the habit that I don’t want seen,
The pain that makes me feel
Out all my lives, you are the worst.
For all this, you are essentially
Unstable Desire
Desire, Desire.
 
You’re the song that I don’t know how to sing,
This wound that I don’t know how to heal,
The chocolate that makes me happy
Or, perhaps, the grapes that I don’t know how to reach.
You’re the habit that I don’t want seen,
The pain that makes me feel
Out all my lives, you are the worst.
For all this, you are essentially…
