Ilusion de Un Beso

Foreword: When I thought of this poem, everything came to me in spanish, so when I sat down to write it, I started to translate all my words into English. I began to write, "Illusion of a Kiss" and it just didn't sound right. I have decided to leave it in spanish. I will try and give the best translation I can, but I guarantee you, it is so much yummier in spanish. ENJOY!
Ilusion de un Beso

Antes de amarte,
pense en besarte.

Me soñe esa noche
en tantas maravillas,
me hice tantas ilusiones

La mas bella,
siendo, tus labios.

Me ilucione
tus manos sobre mi cuerpo,
la derecha sobre la piel
de mi cadera izquierda
la izquierda sosteniendo tu peso contra la pared.

Me contaste un cuento, una historia
de cuando, hace años te enamoraste
pero al encontrar que estabas solo,
le corriste al amor, al compromise, y a la lealtad.

Me pediste que no te uyera
que te habias dado cuenta
que las cosas, pasan por alguna razon
y el destino, te habia traido aqui, al lado mio

No se que me llevo
si fue la noche, calma y soltera
o tu mirada placentera

Pero con mi mirada, te regale
mis secretos, te abri puertas
que hace mucho tiempo habia cerrado

Espero que entiendas, que no tengo mucho
que lo mas valioso que tengo son mis palabras,
que lo mas valioso que tengo es mi amor,
Y te lo entrego.

Y quien sabra

Quizas mañana,
me estaras amando, al igual que yo a ti.
Quizas mañana,
te este regalando lo que tengo, al igual que tu.

Y quien sabra

Quizas mañana,
ni me conoceras, no te recordaras de este momento
Quizas mañana,
le diras lo mismo, a otra persona

La vida te da chances,
Y es tu llamada

Quizas mañana no te acuerdes de mi
Quizas mañana, cuando mencionen mi nombre

Temblara tu cuerpo,

Pensaras en un beso

En esa noche

Y en esa muchacha

  1. Illusion of a Kiss

    Before loving you,
    I dreamt of kissing you

    ...I dreamt that night

    of so many fantasies,
    I had so many illusions

    the best one
    being, your lips

    I imagined
    your hands over my body
    the right one on the skin
    of my left hip
    and the left, holding your weight against the wall

    You told me a story, a tale
    of a time long ago, when you fell in love
    but finding yourself alone,
    you ran from it (love), from commitment, , from loyalty

    You asked me not to run from you
    that you learned
    about the things, that happen for a reason
    y that destiny, had bought you here, beside me

    I don't know what took over me,
    if it was the night, calm and single
    or your pleasant stare

    But with my eyes, I gave to you as a gift
    my secrets, I opened the doors
    that had been closed, a long time ago

    I hope you understand, that I dont have much
    that the most valuable thing I own are my words
    that the most valuable thing I have to offer is love

    And I give this to you
    And who knows

    Maybe tomorrow
    you will be loving me, as I will be loving you
    Maybe tomorrow
    I will be giving to you everything I have, as you will be giving you what you have

    And who knows

    Maybe tomorrow
    You wont even recognize me, nor will you remember this moment

    Maybe tomorrow
    You will tell someone the same things you told me today

    Life gives you chances,
    and this is your call

    Maybe tomorrow You wont remember me
    Maybe tomorrow when you hear my name
    Your body will tremble
    You will think of that kiss,
    of that night
    and that girl

    (this was the best I could do, somethings just are not the same when translated, hope you all enjoyed!)
