Do not run away from me


when I see the sunrise,

when I perceive the birth of the day.

Every morning I turn to my side,

looking for your being on my flank.

 

Just to imagine that I missed you

my roses died and my eyes have dried.

To feel you distant the traffic of ideas returns,

just think where you'll be.

 

Do not run away from me

do not separate another inch,

that distance knocks down any barrier

that love plays in this case.

 

Do not move, do not breathe,

do not walk backwards,

walk towards me, your past, present

and what you like but with me.

 

I offer you to fly away,

but get me dragged,

hanging from your right side,

that in the left we carry envy and desires.

 

I'll repeat it again screaming now.

Do not go that my boat is sinking.

We mast, sail and rudder,

they waves, rain and tide.

 

Now I tell you in an inexpensive poem.

Do not go and if you do;

Take me in your memory,

or just hanging on your right side.
