Love it – Hilda Hilst

As if I lost you, I want you like this.
As if I didn't see you (golden beans
Under a yellow) I seize you like this, abruptly
Immovable, and I breathe you in completely

A rainbow of air in deep water.

As if you allowed me everything else,
I photograph myself at some
tall, ochre iron gates, and I myself diluted and minimal
In the dissoluteness of every farewell.

As if I lost you on trains, at stations
Or going around a circle of waters
Moving bird, so I add you to me:
Flooded with nets and desires.
