Loving isn't always easy

Loving isn't always easy


Fears increase,
thriving a million times,
when the sea is agitated, prompted
by the turbines of ships leaving,
by multiform waves,
by whispering winds...


But the sea calms down
when he feels the placidity
of what true love is.


Why when I say "I love you"
you blush or your complexion pales,
and your eyes dismay me?


Why can I not find
the words of affection,
the contact that doesn't disturb you,
the soothing caresses?

Para los amables lectores que no hablen inglés, mi traducción libre:

No siempre es fácil amar

Los temores se incrementan,
agigantándose un millón de veces,
cuando el mar se agita, movido
por las turbinas de los barcos al partir,
por las olas multiformes,
por los vientos susurrantes...

Pero el mar se calma.
cuando siente la placidez
de un verdadero amor.

¿Por qué cuando digo "te amo"
te sonrojas o tu tez palidece,
y me turba tu mirada?

¿Por qué no puedo yo encontrar
las palabras afectuosas,
el contacto que no te incomode,
las caricias sosegadas?

There are so many poems on love, perhaps the terms scare the designated recipient. Love is a complex and serious emotion that many would soon like to avoid. It's easier to live without becoming totally vulnerable to another human being.

Your poetry is exquisite,
Yellow (my favorite color) hugs from my sunny world,

 

Thanks a lot for your generous and lyrical message, dear poet and friend Guadalupe.
I am very pleased that you consider my poetry exquisite. I'm also sastified for the concept
you have about the emotions that love causes.

Another big, fraternal and respectful hug,

Ulpiano

Another big, fraternal and respectful hug,

Ulpiano
