Estos ojos que ahora están mirándonos
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Estos ojos que ahora están mirándonos
no dejan que la luz se nos deshaga,
custodian sin cesar lo más callado
de nuestras teleandanzas por el tiempo,
abordan la emoción por la Palabra
en la que siendo dos viajamos uno
fuera de la existencia
en que separan cuerpo, historia y muerte.

Nuestro pasado fue algo tormentoso:
un nacer y un vivir cara a la ausencia
y luego de encontrarnos
ruptura terminal con el cieluño
por triple danzas en un mismo sueño.
Pero ya quién se acuerda
al ver que nos fugamos circundándonos
hacia nuestro esplendor por transparencias.
