Aceitunas [English translation]

Your legs from three to six p.m.

in memory, suddenly burn me

and when I want to soothe my madness

only eating olives calms me.

A bitten olive

has returned all the flavor to life

amazed, I breathe and feel your scent.

Today I rave, delirious

your thread cuts me

until the limit of hope

as slowly

and I stretch out the space

between the first and the goodbye kiss.

A bitten olive

has returned all the flavor to life

amazed, I breathe and feel your scent.

And here you have me

clinging strongly

to the seed

like hanging on you.

Your legs from three to six p.m.

in memory, suddenly burn me

and when I want to soothe my madness

only eating olives calms me.
