I like...

I LIKE...
(From Jack to Ennis)*

I like burning in the torches of your eyes,
brittle glasses where I'm reflected,
understandable letters from an unwritten sheet,
a place where I see and I read your answers.

I like the mastery I learned from your hands
that whizzes,plucking my notes
-my body,your lover guitar-
if with the love`s "tempo" you go through them

I like doing the hunt of your lips,
tasty fruit from a tree that's cultivated for me
for being spring ourburst in the afternoon
although it's always blooming for my harvest.

I like your skin turned into fire garlands
that pricks my lips by doing chaps on them,
like flooded by a new sun roads,
in a dessert where one always wants to get lost.

I like that your body revives me,
wriggling madly inside my veins,
because,when you awake them from their sleep
you fill them of new breath to love it.

I like perceiving your silences,
quiet converses of evident sensations,
talkative without being felt by the hearing
when our words are life's tinsels.

I like getting lost down in your belly,down...
wrecking ship in a stormy sea,
eager to find in it the helm
to bring me to the errants destiny.

Love...I like the one you give me now,
the one already given,the one you'll give me tomorrow,
the one that rises me up to the stars in a flight,
the one that sinks me beyond the ground,

I'd like,however,that when my friend the wind
brings until your feelings my purpose
being able to feel always the teenager's illusion;
don't get me old because...I love you very much.


*The original is in Catalan;I've tried to translate it as well as I can. :)

I like your silences,quiet conversations of evident sensations,where our words are life´s tinsels.
The lost illusions are the found truths.

Thanks for sharing - that's lovely.  And what a perfect picture to accompany it.

Thanks,Marie¡ I don't know if the translation is good,because English is not my mother language at all.But,well,I've tried to express what Jack could feel for Ennis,because he's more able to have "quiet converses".
