Meeting
 
In vain tonight, my tendency will reach your limits
Your image rushes to the safe appointment of my forehead
I feel your presence more constant 
The syllables of your name are poured reluctantly 
Through my sleepless lips, hurting the stillness of the air, 
So that you sprout in my arms... 
But the time for the meeting has not yet arrived for us.
