En la Ardent Oscuridad

It happened like this:
I started playing that sacred game without knowing
what to do, but soon I learned
that when there are too many people in the room
no one wants to talk about love.
I never regretted it
and I never will.

He found me at the station
and took me to his apartment.
He said something about my skin,
hugged me
and I closed my eyes.

And I had to understand
that there is still another light that remains when the sun sets in me,
and there I am: in the burning darkness.
Partly it was my fault; partly it was the way he looked at me.
And this immense decision comes to me,
comes to me, comes to me
and I can't stop smoking.

He found me at the station
and took me to an apartment.
He said something about my skin,
paid me
and I closed my eyes.

When the sun begins to hurt
he eats from my hand.
Today I have taken drugs
that make me talk.
