DISHES/CUBIERTOS

This poem was entered in my contest of Eber &wein publishing in the book "Beyond the sea" i didnt win the contest but I was a finalist

That's what your wanted

That I'll wash your dishes

That I'll stay with you so

That I'll order your clothes

Who said that a love

has to order your life

Without making it first for yours

Since I met you in the distance

My love

From wanting to live with you

 

Will be in the dishes of another story

Where I will forget you

It will be my body health

And improved soul

Of the vegetables of another love

Better cooked

Carrying vegetables of love that

Restores my interior

 

I had marked lens after lens

By admire you closer

My new dishes I will wash

The ones of my new love maybe

I am not a maid of your life

Because this time to meet you inside

There would not be dishes

that I'll have to wash.

 

 

 

Eso querias

Que lavara tus cubiertos

Que me quedara contigo por eso

Que ordenara tu ropa 

Quien dijo que un amor

Tiene que ordenar tu vida

Sin hacerlo primero por la tuya

 

 

Desde que te conoci en la distancia

Amor desde querer vivir conmigo

Seran en los platos de otra historia donde te olvidare

Sera mi salud del cuerpo y el alma mejorada

De los vegetales de otro amor 

Mejor cocinados

Llevando verduras de amor 

Que restauran mi interior 

 

Habia marcado lente tras lente

Por admirarte mas cerca 

Mis nuevos platos lavare 

Los de mi nuevo amor tal vez

No soy una sirvienta de tu vida

Porque esta vez por conocerte por dentro

No quedaran cubiertos tuyos

Que tenga que lavar.
