Poem by Pedro Vergara Meersohn

Sirena desnuda
en aguas cristalinas.

las olas te besan.
y la sal se pega a tu piel.

Y tú nadas tranquila
en la humedad de tu ser.

Si fuese yo el mar,
si mis brazos las olas.

Con un beso ahogarías
la sed de mi querer.

Naked mermaid
in clear waters.

the waves kiss you.
and salt sticks to your skin.

And you swim quiet
in the humidity of your being.

If I were the sea,
if wave my arms.

With a kiss ahogarías
the thirst of my love.
