Pode Ser

Fico com saudade de casa 
só de te ver.
O vazio da tábula rasa
pra aprender
e sair sem saber porque saio,
mas pode ser
já tá hora final do ensaio,
assim dizer,
o esboço, a preparação
para morrer
ou apenas a separação
com a mulher.

(port.) May be
I miss home just seeing you. To learn the void of a tabula rasa and to leave without knowing why I leave. But, may be, it's time for a final rehearsal, so to say, an outline, a preparation for death or just a breaking up with a woman.

I love this sensitive piece. It reminds me a bit of the way Pablo Neruda writes. I know when he met Gabriela Mistral she influenced him with readings of the greatest authors of Russian literature. This romantic beauty is going into my Faves. xxoo : )
