Compañera
Alejandro Filio
Comrade
Let me close your eyes with my mouth
until the moon of these hours ends,
shadows tied with shadows and in secret
so that nothing breaks this silence.
Let me weave heaven with these hands
and rain over the deserted field of your body,
pluck this rose of my sorrow
walk from north to south for your star.
Let me idealize you, let me lose myself
for I can't find another way to have you.
Let the gap be walked by both of us
or ignite your part, the frozen part,
take the turn alone and uphill
to reach the shore together.
Stop driving me crazy feeling nothing
because in being, you are more than I expected
and may only the attempt be worth it
to put a happy ending to the story.
Let me idealize you, let me lose myself
for I can't find another way to have you.
Comrade.
