Trovoa

My head thunders
Under my chest, I find you and kneel
Destiny sings for your red eyes
Red flowers, Venus, bonus
Everything that is possible for me, or less
More or less
I surrender, offer, worship your beauty
Physical as well, but not only,
Not only

Thank God you exist
I think I would freak out if you said it's not a thing
I lift you with my hands, barely smile, barely smile
My closed eyes haunt you
Out of orbit
Disheveled, diva, sudden
Sudden

Be sweet, be straightforward
Be a knife through butter
I sense how you arrive, swift
Rummaging through my stuff
Messing up my head
Shooting at the knick-knacks I carry with me
Clips, pins, creams, tonics
All the incredible hardness of my heart
Made into pieces

My head thunders
Under your chest, I find calm and silence
At the gate of your house in the neighborhood
Families watch TV - I don't
At 8, 9 at night
I smoke a Marlboro on the street like everyone else
And like you, I know
I mean, I think I know
I think I know

I walk calmly and whistle
And it's because I trust your affection
Even if it comes in a slap
And I walk on foot through the streets of Lapa
- early on, vapor? I can't believe it!
The soot blinds me
The chill pokes me
Sunrise seen from Vila Ipojuca
The fine steel of the razor that shaves
The cold steel of the subway
The fine halo of your presence

Alone at the bakery in Santa Cecília
In the middle of the afternoon, sobs
I mean, I remember
Tapping with colored nails
On the edge of a beer glass
Grumbles when she sees
That she gets gum as change

Remembering that one day she said
'you know, you're so chic, kinda freak, 70s
Stay
Stay with me
If you leave, I'll become a beggar
I'm good for nothing
I won't be your friend
Stay
Stay with me'

My head thunders
Under your cloak, I surrender
To the challenge of kissing you, understanding your desire
Throwing myself at your breasts
My love is immense, it's bigger than I think
It's dense
Thick cloud of intense perfume incense
And the simple act of smelling you
Smells like art
Takes me to Mars
To any place
The part that activates the chemistry
Chemistry

Ignore the mimics and physical education
Only feeds on magic
A thermos bottle explodes
Over the formica tables of a ceramic hall
Where the chants sound
Monogamous conviction
Atomic displacement
For a unique moment
Where the most lyrical poem
Shows itself as the most logical thing

And hug with immense force
Until the arms want to break
All the defense that may exist today
And by chance want to keep us apart
This moment so small and gentle
And the beauty it can hold
Darling, never forget
Where all the love is born and resides
