At night

“There are speeches that are brief

So brief that they don’t have a single word

Full and deep speeches

Like the sea that silences us.

Brief are also the bodies,

Constrained by desires and hazards,

Where Beauty rests,

As the soul of my world

Beneath the earth, you look like a perfect temple

There are so many gods in your steps

In your simplicity,

I hear you sing.

I admire your virtuosity

That you unwittingly offer me.

In the tree where you land,

In the skies where you fly I follow you

And I take you as mine!

I like to entrust you with all my traits,

and today, that’s all I’m searching for in you.

Today my soul became a bird

And it flew for me!”

Nuno Lacerda Lopes
