Work generated after a loving rejection, a usual fact that tell us poems and stories, but that when you live it is deeply painful, unrequited love.

Idyllic vision of the eyes of the beloved. Longing for love.

A song that almost isn't no song, a hymn of grieving that starts and ends discretely, almost without being.

Oda als amors impossibles (Original in Catalan):

Tu que em portes lluny,

dels amors caiguts,
em fas que et digui,
que els estels no morin
i la lluna pugui ballar
dins del mar,
com si un vals els convides a estimar.
 
I és l'amor que ens fa veure
uns ulls ballant dins del mar.

 

 

Ode to impossible loves (English translation):

You who carry me far away,

of fallen loves,
you make me tell you,
that stars don't die
and the moon could dance
inside the sea,
as a vals invited to love.
 
And it is love that show us
eyes dancing inside the sea.
