So Much I Gazed
So much I gazed on beauty,
that my vision is replete with it.
Contours of the body.
Red lips.
Voluptuous limbs.
Hair as if taken from greek statues;
always beautiful, even when uncombed,
and it falls, slightly, over white foreheads.
Faces of love, as my poetry
wanted them.
.
.
.
in the nights of my youth,
in my nights, secretly, met.
.
