A romance of white musk, Persian chandelier lily accord, night blooming jasmine, laleh, honeysuckle, tonka bean, bergamot, white pepper, white amber, china clay, and the silvery aquatics of melting snow.
"No one understood the perfume --
the dark magnolia of your belly
Nobody knew how you tormented
the hummingbird of love between your teeth.
A thousand Persian horses slept
in the plaza with moon of your forehead,
while for four nights I embraced
you, enemy of the snow.
Between gypsum and jasmine, your gaze
was a pale bouquet of seeds.
I sought my heart to give you
the ivory letters that say "siempre..."
