POETRY IS WHAT THE SOULS OF THE ANCIENTS SPEAK TO THOSE STILL SEEKING WHAT IS MOST BEAUTIFUL IN THE WORLD. FROM: LINDA

LACHRYMOSE 


Within this tearful melancholy day,

when sorrow from a thousand eyes hangs in the air,

and floats as mist;

On such a day, there's only one thing to do,

breathe in that mist,

inhale the tears of the many

so that you will not know loneliness.



LACRIMOSA 


en este día melancólico y lluvioso
con el dolor de mil ojos flotando en el aire
suspendido como la niebla
sólo hay una cosa por hacer:
 
inhalar, entre la bruma, el llanto de los muchos
para no conocer la soledad
