I have not forgotten you

I could say that I love you
that I'll stop loving you when
the last star went out
or that I'll forget you when
the last particle disintegrates
I know it will not be like that.

That the wind will take
my words before reaching your ear
but I know it would be easier
to get to another galaxy
that get to your heart.

I could say that I love you
that it would reach Mars for you
or I would make the moon
leave the earth for you
I could stop writing you
but still I could not tell you what I feel.

What is the use of being human
if a bird can fly
and a plant does not have to forget
it will be easier to leave my soul
let your heart.

"This is the poem of a poor lover,
written for a person whom I can not forget."
