Nothing More In the Waters

You're gone, my love

Carried by the current

Slowly drifting,

Until the extinction of the day.

I could not see in the wave

Any mark of your body,

But just the clouds, embroidered with gold,

In reflections, gliding on the deep water.

Would you be a new Ophelia?

From the mud would rise bubbles,

Amount towards dusk,

The distant shores of oblivion ...
