El Lago Artificial

Cursed the day I gave way to the border
and you rode straight to the heart.
You became the owner of the beat and the thought
and you hooked me to the pumping of your love.

And with the absence of pain
and that peace filling the reason
you drowned all my anxiety
in an immense artificial lake.
For sale in the alleys
and in the gloomy corners
of my city.

Like in any love
the first month was good
and soon, soon the pleasure disappeared.
Your name alone revived desire in me
that you fed with a new hole.

But then that tremor
bathed in sweat water
a thousand times I tried to endure,
a thousand times more I had to look for you.
I found you in the alleys
and in the gloomy corners
of my city.
