My ideal would be to write...
(Menagem in verse to Rubem Braga)
I wanted to write something that sounded really seductive.
Something that would make everyone think and say, "Wow! That's how I feel!"
I wish I could make some text so perfect and so original.
That there was no person in the world who could not identify.
I wanted to find the best words
For the best metaphors.
To think of everything no one ever thought of,
But that everyone felt at some point.
I wanted to be good, be really good.
I wonder, deep in my heart,
That there is no better expression or more perfect form
For the sublime feeling I just wrote.
I wanted to be good, but in a humble way
What a person reads and doesn't believe
That words so simple can sprout such a feeling
And so few lines can describe your life.
I wanted to write a perfect text.
I wanted the world to read and not tell others
That it touched his heart differently,
And that your life wouldn't be the same from then on.
It's just that person, who's so special,
When I read my text, I cried and understood
That every word was chosen among many
To tell you exactly how I feel about her.
