(Just a random attempt at translating my own poem)
This is a flashback
On a childlike love
Now long overdue
Within the tapestry
Of painful decks of time
Its been a while
Since the papaya trees
The dragonflies, the marbles
The dust, the pigments.
Under the mango trees
We dressed up the dolls
Blue eyes brunette hair -
My appreciation of you
Feelings beyond words
Its been hard
To be on the shade
Of those hills
On the other side
And losing sight
Where emotions distort
And meander like the streams
Where we once sailed paper boats
And ever since
I have struggled to remember
I have constantly suffered
This painful sedation
Of cruel time.
