“What a ridiculous creature. Happy that I put butter on his sandwich. As if I wouldn't make the world spin backwards if I thought he'd like it better that way.”
― Rainbow Rowell, Any Way the Wind Blows

“I Love You"

I love you...
and you move the time of my life without hours.

I love you
in the pallid streams that travel in the night,
and never finish conveying stars to the sea.

I love you
in that morning unpinned from the flight of centuries
that fled its white ship to the water without waves
where your voice and my song sadly swam.

I love you
in the pain without tears that tell so many nights the dream
has gathered:
in the sky inverted in my pupils to look at you cosmically;
in the hollow voice of my noise of centuries crumbling.

I love you (scream of white night)
in the insomniac thoughts where in birds my spirit
has returned.

I love you...

My love lightly escapes from expressions and routes,
and goes breaking the shadows
and reaching your image
from the innocent point where I am grass and birdsong.”
― Julia de Burgos, Song of the Simple Truth: The Complete Poems of Julia de Burgos

“La relación comida-mujer es complicada. Los hombres comen para saciarse y listo. Las mujeres suelen preparar la comida, la rechazan, la desean, la odian, la engullen, la vomitan, la añoran.”
― Liliana Blum, Pandora

“I adored you without thinking of you physically. I kissed your smile and adored your illusions.”
― Julia de Burgos, Song of the Simple Truth: The Complete Poems of Julia de Burgos
