Algo como esto


Muchos momentos de silencio

trascendentales
de los que no podemos ni hablar
/a veces
porque… es como si nos agarraran
/fuerte
/por las gargantas
… aun así, nos acompañan siempre
y se acomodan junto a nosotros en ese banco
donde soltamos las penas y los deseos
en la más absoluta mudez.

Benditos aquellos que pueden decir mucho con sus manos, sus dedos, sus almas…
/otros no tienen la misma suerte.
Los encuentras muriendo mientras el viento los golpea
hasta hacerlos retroceder cada vez que intentan dar un paso.
Los encuentras por millones llevando una vida de pasos en falso.
Los encuentras y por un momento te ves en su infortunio.


Y te rindes

No puedes contigo -dices-
Y te vuelves a rendir
Ni las hojas que se desprenden de un árbol
se dan el lujo de rendirse.

¿Has visto ese último vuelo?
Caen
Caen
Caen
Una y otra vez en este mundo y en otro y en otro
con destinos diversos
/Lo cruel es que solo vemos uno
el de la hoja muriendo.

Piensa.

¿Ha muerto realmente?
¿Está callada realmente?

Algo como esto -mira-


No es menos, ni más…

/es el silencio mientras escribo
y te pienso, como si en la punta de mis dedos guardara todo lo que eres,
y te pienso en el silencio (maldito o bendito) de algún lugar donde todos te miran
y vierten sobre ti en un instante sus silenciosas vidas
mientras la tuya
/converge con unas
/se aleja de otras
/avanza... pese al viento


¿vas a rendirte ahora?

Many moments of silence

transcendents
that we can't even talk about
/sometimes
because... it's as if we are gripped
/strongly
/by our throats
... even so, they are always with us
and sit next to us on that bench
where we let go of our sorrows and desires
in the most absolute muteness.

Blessed are those who can say a lot with their hands, their fingers, their souls...
/others are not so lucky.
You find them dying while the wind blows them away
to make them back down every time they try to take a step.
You find them by the millions leading a life of missteps.
You find them and for a moment you see yourself in their misfortune.


And you give up

You can't cope with yourself -you say-
And you give up again
Not even the leaves that fall from a tree
can afford to give up.

Did you see that last flight?
They fall
...fall
...fall
Over and over again in this world and another and another
with different destinies
/The cruel thing is that we only see one
the dying leaf.

Think.

Has it really died?
Is it really quiet?

Something like this -look-


It is no less, no more...

/is the silence while I write
and I think of you as if in my fingertips I hold all that you are,
and I think of you in the silence (damned or blessed) of some place where everyone looks at you
and pour over you in an instant their silent lives
while yours
/converges with some
/takes distance from others
/advances... in spite of the wind


are you going to give up now?

Bueno no entiendo todo lo que se dice ahí. Pero lo que sé es que es mejor no rendirse. Seguir viendo lo positivo. Sigo leyendo. Gracias.

sí entendiste, Julio. Un abrazo para ti. 😅

Apoteosico, profundo casi doloroso!... Sei un "Da Vinci", cara amica! ;)

😌 Palabras de la cotidianidad, amigo. No es tanto. Un abrazo enorme y mis deseos de que esté teniendo un lindo domingo.

Words like these hit me so hard.. Thanks for blessing my evening and reminding me alot about life

As long as words help, they are welcome. A hug and don't give up even if the road is difficult.

I guess this poem should be read each time one wants to give up on something.

And very wise words here:

Lo cruel es que solo vemos uno
el de la hoja muriendo.

That's right, girl. Hope you had a nice Sunday. 😇

Yes, it was a good Sunday :))

🎹 & 🍽️ & 🥃 & ⛰️ & 🎹& 📽️ & 💤

Silences that encompass our lives, taking us through passages of continuous, almost mortal pain, emotions that can be heard in every breath.

Beautiful verses.
Thanks for sharing.
Good day.

Sometimes I can't find the right words, but I manage to say something. Very grateful for your feedback, my friend.

Good day to you too. 😇

Many times silence says a lot and it is true that words written in silence derive from the soul, that is why what one writes sometimes expresses much more than words.

I learned to listen to the silences, there where people think there is nothing, there is a lot to listen to.

Beautiful poem Nani, I love it!❤️

seeds grow in silence 🙂

Thank you ;)

This is beautiful. I love the formatting and the cadence. It sweeps the reader right through the poem and adds intrigue upon intrigue along the way.

The issue of translation in English is always a concern for me. I hope I have not lost the sense of what I wanted to express.
I am glad you liked this poetic exercise. 🤗

Things will always get lost or changed in translation, but the English version, even if it differs from the original, is very powerful.

what a relief hahaha

Muchos sentimientos encontrados. Muy lindo.

🤔... pero una certeza: que no debemos renunciar.

Los encuentras muriendo mientras el viento los golpea
hasta hacerlos retroceder cada vez que intentan dar un paso.

...Lo paradójico es que podríamos caminar con el viento a favor. Y ese es el dolor del poeta 🙏

El poeta siempre cava allí donde está el dolor porque el verso lo libera. 😉

Sublime! Interesting formatting and structure. Your poem conveys a strong message while consciously playing with words and meanings. Beautiful.

Thank you, your words encourage me to continue to let the veil of my thoughts slip ;)
