Afrontar Este Amanecer
Pablo Hasél
Facing This Dawn
What would you do for me? Anyone can say I love you.
I could freeze to death removing the frost from your hair.
This eternal love had such an absurd ending.
Like forgetting their rights and killing each other over soccer.
A few seconds change the rest of my life.
Shot on the ground, I'll continue without giving up on my hope.
Death stares at me, I look away.
My heart attack talks to me, and still explodes my heart even more.
This prayer is aimed at the sky of your room.
At least it silences storms, if not I dry them up.
I wish you would do it to me as if it were your last day.
But today I knew like yesterday that sadness would fuck me.
Because I can't face coming with another.
And at the end feel something much worse than loneliness.
I won't look for a crazy one to drive me crazy and break
The glass of this cup where my ego managed to reflect.
I'll toast for the poetic justice of time.
I barely sleep because I only know how to dream awake.
Buildings seem to attack me and I haven't taken LSD.
With what thought secretes without respite, I drugged myself.
The sun that filters through the blinds,
At times seems like the light at the end of the tunnel.
My insane evasions still unite
With the incest of our Siamese hearts,
So they undress.
The night better camouflages the ghosts of the past.
But the sun has burned the traps of the night.
I don't know which one to choose, equally in the afternoon.
At the most unexpected moment something will lead me to remember you.
The darkness of the sun's rays blinds me.
In its shadows I can see how another kissed you.
I don't care anymore. I won't forget who I am, never again.
I will find one morning what the moon doesn't give.
There's a void in the sky, it wants to absorb me.
My mourning semen blaspheming on another skin.
Life is cruel, the horizon underlines it.
The solar system doesn't give a shit about the emails you don't respond to.
I have to face this dawn.
Even if you're not here.
It's snowing in spring, how to protect myself
From the poisonous frost without your igloo.
I ask the night not to leave.
But it seems determined to imitate you.
Although this dawn nothing can harm me.
Because I'm crying laughter face to face with nothing.
This lost gaze one day focused on your eyes.
No other retinas can.
They oppress my heart but I don't shrink it.
Haggling alcohol with a Pakistani.
I offered nothing to the city, I don't know why I went out.
And if I let myself be carried away by madness like a breadwinner.
I won't forget what I long for the most.
Who could break these bars like ears of wheat.
I don't want to die in the arms of the mist.
Not even you guess which lost game you're playing.
Sick moon, let me dawn with my medicine.
The night doesn't end, it mixes with the day.
How much I would give to return to that argument.
But my gaze, our ship sank.
And you forgot that we were still close to the shore.
If you felt like it, we would be cracking up.
That's why I feel our tears humiliate me.
Now you seem taken from a Kafka book.
I walk through deserted streets like a rabid dog.
Until the fireball is born.
And sweeps away one more memory as I go to sleep alone.
I long for your nails digging into my armor.
With the will of a romance in the Gaza Strip.
United by synesthesia, separated by who knows what.
Your name on the train ticket I derailed.
Help me fall asleep, I woke up to dream of you.
Today I wouldn't go anywhere from your bunker.
I watch you invisibly, the city blurs.
I want to believe that it's worth getting blind in your retina.
The darkness of the sun's rays blinds me.
In its shadows I can see how another kissed you.
I don't care anymore. I won't forget who I am, never again.
I will find one morning what the moon doesn't give.
There's a void in the sky, it wants to absorb me.
My mourning semen blaspheming on another skin.
Life is cruel, the horizon underlines it.
The solar system doesn't give a shit about the emails you don't respond to.
I have to face this dawn.
Even if you're not here.
