haiku

i

el abismo me
arropa con la incer-
tidumbre del ser

ii

In the night the rains
wash away my sullen tears.
Softly they give way.

iii

El frio de las
sabanas anuncian
tu ausencia

iiii

awakened
by the emptiness
that lies abreast

v

eres mentira
que sigilosamente
turba mi razón




             vi

love breaks
and one falls upon
slumber’s wake
