Analysis of Preguntas



Me preguntas como si no lo supieras:
¿por qué late agitado tú corazón?,
¿por qué sube y baja palpitante tu pecho?,
¿por qué se desordena tú respiración?

Te miro de reojo mientras pienso
alguna excusa, quizá un pretexto;
me quedo absorta, gana el silencio,
y poso mis manos sobre tu sexo:

Cierro los ojos, siento tu cuerpo,
tiembla mi carne, crujen mis huesos,
abro mi alma, te doy mi templo,
calla mi mente y hablan mis besos.
