I have scarcely left you
When you go in me, crystalline,
Or trembling,
Or uneasy, wounded by me

Their yearning for love is so deep that if one gives sweeness the other will offer a rose.

SPANISH TEXT: ''Ausencia'' Apenas te he dejado, vas en mi, cristalina o temblorosa, o inquieta, herida por mi mismo o colmada de amor, como cuando tus ojos se cierran sobre el don de la vida que sin cesar te entrego. Amor mio, nos hemos encontrado sedientos y nos hemos bebido toda el agua y la sangre, nos encontramos con hambre y nos mordimos como el fuego muerde, dejandonos heridos. Pero esperame guardame tu dulzura. Yo te dare tambien una rosa.

This brings to mind the image of love as war. The carnage left behind after two people have had their way with each other's hearts. It ends beautifully though, with the thought that maybe that one person is worth the fight.

But wait for me, Keep for me your sweetness. I will give you too A rose. The most romantic lines I've read so far, simple, close, personal n touchy. I like his language style, they offer the connection a lot of poets lack.

It's as if, they both know they have flaws and mistakes. But the poet all asks is for a little faith in their love, that they don't give up or give in... because in the end, all will end well.
