Esta tristeza cotidiana
que abarca la poesia
es real y avanza
con el tiempo
y la certidumbre
de que hay un límite
hasta que el filo de la vida
como un cuchillo
nos deja cerrados los parpados.
Por eso hay que vivir
y disfrutar
de esta tristeza cotidiana
mientras avanzamos
por el sendero que nos queda
por caminar.
