Ternura

Eu te peço perdão por te amar de repente
Embora o meu amor seja uma velha canção nos teus ouvidos
Das horas que passei à sombra dos teus gestos
Bebendo em tua boca o perfume dos sorrisos
Das noites que vivi acalentado
Pela graça indizível dos teus passos eternamente fugindo
Trago a doçura dos que aceitam melancolicamente
E posso te dizer do grande afeto que te deixo
Não traz o exaspero das lágrimas
Nem a fascinação das promessas
Nem as misteriosas palavras dos véus da alma
É um sossego, uma unção, um transbordamento de carícias
E só te pede que te repouses quieta, muito quieta
E deixes que as mãos cálidas da noite
Encontrem sem fatalidade
O olhar extático da aurora
