this photo by Armando Taborda

I love you in busy traffic
With the whole blood pollution.
I expose your will
The place that just breaths in your mouth
Oh verb I love as the pronunciation
Of mother, of friend, of poem
In thought.
With all ideas in my head I go into the silence
Of your lips.
Mold me from your palate
Cause I guess I can hear you
In the firmament.

///

Amo-te no intenso tráfego
Com toda a poluição no sangue.
Exponho-te a vontade
O lugar que só respira na tua boca
Ó verbo que amo como a pronúncia
Da mãe, do amigo, do poema
Em pensamento.
Com todas as ideias da minha cabeça ponho-me no silêncio
Dos teus lábios.
Molda-me a partir do céu da tua boca
Porque pressinto que posso ouvir-te
No firmamento.

by Daniel FARIA (1971-1999), in "POESIA", Assírio & Alvim - chancela da Porto Editora, 2ª edição, 2015
