"Olas de seda", de Jesús Herce. |
A TURQUOISE CAN BE GUESSED IN YOU
Hide your beauty.
Conceal it in a nest
of uncertain obscurity.
Withhold what you are
Withhold what you are
in mountains and abysses,
hide your charisma and charm,
blind your green dazzling intensity.
(Let no one see you,
allow no one to know)
Dress up in a murky grey
able to blur your brilliance,
believe in nothing but white and black.
A turquoise can be guessed in you,
a golden jade, a purple emerald.
Make a shelter in the shadows,
for your presence shines so much.
blind your green dazzling intensity.
