Submission a poem by ALEXANDRO ACEVEDO JOHNS

[Alexandro Acevedo Johns]

Hi, friends Poets. This is my poem for "Through Time Through Space" (unpublished)

My virtual life

The rain of the days
effaced the footpath that I walked with her,
and the turbid river of my thought
destroyed the bridges of our reunion.
Since then,
I live locked up in a house of virtual windows,
that once in a while,
it allow me to look her true life
from my imitation stand.

But, never more.

I won't spy on her facebook or tweeter again;
I behaved like a thief,
who doesn't dare to break shop windows,
and of so much dreaming with something unreachable
cowardly returns to his imaginary house.

Her transitory vision,
as from the bottom of an intangible cup
was burning my thirst,
it won't disturb me,
at last.

..............

Many thanks Doctor Fab. for this new proyect.

Spanish version

Mi vida virtual

La lluvia de los días
borró el sendero que recorrí con ella,
y el río turbio de mi pensamiento
se llevó los puentes de nuestro reencuentro.
Desde entonces, vivo encerrado
en una casa con ventanas virtuales,
que me dejan, de vez en cuando,
contemplar su vida.

Pero ya nunca más

No volveré a espiar
su facebook ni su tweeter;
me comporté como un ladrón
que no se atreve a romper vidrieras,
y de tanto mirar lo inalcanzable
vuelve a su casa imaginaria,
más cobarde.

Las visiones transitorias de ella,
que desde el fondo de una copa intangible
encendieron mi sed
dejarán de embriagarme,
por fin.
