Romance

Last night I threw the fish
One by one your memories
The bitter ones were left behind
The sweet ones were devoured

It's a trail of bitterness
Upon returning at dawn
It's a trail of bitterness
That guides my boat

Silver startles
Are my desires
Agony and astonishment
Like the fish
Like the fish, cousin
Like the fish
Like the little fish
In your nets

I thought of you all the time
While setting the longline
Look at how my hands are
Scratched and bloody

The sea of the fishermen
Is not the sea of the travelers
The sea of the fishermen
Is the sea of efforts
