Matching Weight

Tonight
we don't have a lot to go on
but that's not how it lives in my head
no, not at all
blind times
thought we were matching weight
we pulled
sometimes it was you and sometimes it was me
but where are we
you say "don't take it all so hard for now
there's so much space
and there will always be later for that"

na palma da tua mão

e na palma da tua mão
busco ternura
sem contar meses,
anos, dias,
sem saber dizer
se já te chorei
por inteiro
o suficiente
para não voltar
a perder-te

"um mover de mão" de Vasco Gato

Respiro o teu corpo

Respiro o teu corpo:
sabe a lua-de-água
ao amanhecer,
sabe a cal molhada,
sabe a luz mordida,
sabe a brisa nua,
ao sangue dos rios,
sabe a rosa louca,
ao cair da noite
sabe a pedra amarga,
sabe à minha boca.

Eugénio de Andrade
