A KISS FROM YESTERDAY AND TODAY
Penniless
in the light of the autumn dusk,
I gave you yesterday my first kiss.
This lightening bolt was our
mystic space
in times of calm.
In my memory today there is
a window that opens into the past,
beyond our reality,
beyond our love,
in the secret particles of ash
from yesterday’s intense fire.
Like an alchemist,
time
has created the image
from our powerful love,
which is a work of art and it is still there,
like a transparent emerald.
This magic world is a religion
of optimism and happiness.
Today I give you my fame, like a kiss from yesterday.
