Nada poseo sino la palabra
el resto lo he perdido en el naufragio de los dias.
Nada poseo sino la palabra,
la palabra que ahora se escabulle dejandome solo.
I possess nothing but the word,
having lost the rest in the shipwreck of my days.
I possess nothing but the word,
the word now slipping away, leaving me on my own.
by Eduardo Chirinos,
