aldo kraas Poet Free verse

Lips you pass so close

Lips, you pass so close  
From a kiss to words  
Corollas of knowledge  
And of pleasure  
What are you doing here  
On this deserted face  
Kneaded by a bare silence  
Without a halo  
Aren’t you afraid  
Of being late bloomers  
Of crossing your borders  
Into an unreal land?  
Yet your edges tremble  
And the skin begins to see  
As if the ancient spring  
Reopened the evening  
To see the day  
Is to open the sky  
To see the day  
Is all of infinity  
To see the day  
Is to leave the shadow  
And the primal water  
Takes us back  
(To see the day)  
(It is to open the sky)  
There, the eyes gather  
A timeless light  
It slides on the cheek  
Like fruit on the sand  
And this chastity  
Is not coldness  
It is a hand of a spring  
At the edge of the face  
Aren’t you afraid  
Of being late bloomers  
Of crossing your borders  
Into an unreal land?  
Yet your edges tremble  
And the skin begins to see  
As if the ancient spring  
Reopened the evening  
To see the day  
Is to open the sky  
To see the day  
Is all of infinity  
To see the day  
Is to leave the shadow
