There isn’t anywhere to run/ Except to shun/ I convince myself that grateful ought I be/ So much good / be it all false? pops into my head/ playing games/ remaking emotions/ swirling left and right/ until asunder rendered is the I/ I see you/ I question my emotions/ what is it that makes me feel for you?/ I am not ready to meet you nor see you eye to eye/ then why do I insist in wanting to see you?/ Why  look with my sight for you?/ Voyeurism/ this warm sensation burning deep in me/ who will replace this great emotion?/ who will come along to rapture me like you have? / you are a mystery indeed/conflicting emotions; you and my solitude consume the very fibre of my ens/as if the universe is conspiring to mock me or to taunt me/ do you understand what I mean?\On the one hand my solitude and yearning for company and on the other your very being -wantingbutnotwantingyou-making itself present in my soul when I did not even ask for it/ for that matter I did not ask for solitude yet there it is: & the crux/learning to accept both as natural phenomena.

Por lo menos tengo la seguridad de haber aprendido algo aunque sea por un instante y eso es aceptar lo que lo que siento por tí­ como una sensación hermosa. Perdóname por no hacer nada al respecto, sé que es un crimen del cual no hay perdón. Y es que si comprendes veras que no lo hago porque mi vida está hecha trizas cual rompecabezas. Mucho tendrá mi autoestima por igual, qué cobardí­a, no luchar por esa sensación. Sé de antemano que no no te gusta que piensen en tu dirección y créeme cuando te digo que ni siquiera me aliento en pensar a que esto sea una oración. Pero te doy las gracias por existir y hacerme sentir la vida vibrar dentro de mi como tení­a tiempo que no lo hací­a. Sé que tengo posibilidad de enamorarme y quizá sea esa la lección a aprender. Aceptar lo que provocas en mi como una señal de vida y lo que está por venir.
