“My brunette with the golden eyes, your ivory body, your amber
Has left bright reflections in the room
Above the garden.
The clear midnight sky, under my closed lids,
Still shines… I am drunk from so many roses
Redder than wine.
Leaving their garden, the roses have followed me…
I drink their brief breath, I breathe their life.
All of them are here.
It’s a miracle… The stars have risen,
Hastily, across the wide windows
Where the melted gold pours.
Now, among the roses and the stars,
You, here in my room, loosening your robe,
And your nakedness glistens
Your unspeakable gaze rests on my eyes…
Without stars and without flowers, I dream the impossible
In the cold night.”
