Poetry of Issue 9: Return to the Sea

Return to the Sea

It is best to return to the sea

and before this god, to find yourself free.

 

At last, the flow of every day brings the kiss,

in some unrushed moment,

when you least hope or dream it.

 

It is better to know love than to believe in love

or in the promises of a crazy man,

 

to know that at dawn life begins every time,

and that dawn is born in the secret skin of lovers

 

just like in the heart of the endless lovers,

those that insist upon the reunion.

 

It is best to return to the sea for all,

In order to celebrate and to forget,

 

and before this god, to bare yourself

with pleasure and without fears,

joyful and uncomplicated.
