This is a poem about fear, passion, spirituality and one's entirety.


Temptation


There is a moment in your life
when, for the first time, you see the death
like a phantasmal gorge
coming closer to you.

There is a moment in your life
when you, for the first time, feel passion's
all the heat and your throat becomes
dry, and your hips shudder
at the approaching pleasure.

There is a moment in your life
when, for the first time, you catch sight of
your soul, like a silent companion in
your body that gives beauty to
your face.

Each of the images can
captivate you and fill all the life,
but also lead behind and enslave,
if you can't see yourself.
