Scary Beauty

At heart I have always known

That I would find love

And that this would be

On the eve of my death

I have always been confident

I have not given up:

Long before your presence

You were announced to me

So you will be the one

My real presence

I will be in the joy

Of your non-fictional skin

So soft to the caress

So light and so fine

Entity non-divine

Animal of tenderness

Beneath the sun of the dead bird

Spreads infinitely the plain;

There is no death more serene:

Show me

Some of your body

At heart I have always known

That I would find love

And that this would be

On the eve of my death

A kind of joy descends from the physical world

I am attached to the Earth

The rocks, completely black, today plunge

Through vertical stages to a depth of three thousand meters

A kind of joy descends from the physical world

I am attached to the Earth

The rocks, completely black, today plunge

Through vertical stages to a depth of three

Thousand meters

This vision

Which terrifies the savages, inspires

No terror in me

I know that there is no monster hidden in the abyss;

There is only fire

The original fire
