Tan Difícil Como Amar
Elefantes
As Hard As Loving
As hard as loving,
Is to manage to displace
impatience to level 6.
That haste is just
obstacles where the heart
gets used to mislead.
Like a piece of paper
where I write that yesterday wasn't me.
Like your smile.
Like a train that passes by in a hurry, love.
Like the melody of that song,
where we learned that it's better
to let down our guard and resentment
pushed aside, tied in a corner.
As hard as loving
is to sit down and transform
suffering into understanding.
That inferior anger
in matters of value,
to the subtle art of loving.
Like stones that when rolling
smooth out their roughness and ruggedness.
Like your smile...
Like you and like me.
Like the love that binds us both.
Easier, better.
