In my sleeplessness

 
From dusk to dawn, in my sleeplessness,
Your absence accompanies me, constant faithful,
And though you're gone, your countenance remains
Engraved in my memory, like a longing.
In dreams we melt under the sky,
With caresses of love, vibrant passion,
I wait for you awake, faithful lover,
With vehemence that burns without consolation.
But you don't come, my love, and in the distance
My senses search for you without finding you,
In this night of feverish urging.
Without your voice, without your touch, without kissing you,
I live in my fantasy the fragrance
Of a love that never ceases to wait for you.
