Seattle Canadian Coin Exchange

a poem by Jaime Sabines

THE LOVING

Lovers
silent love is the finest silent, trembling
most, the most unbearable,
the loving look, the loving are

leaving the ones who change, who forget.
Their hearts tell them that they will never find
not find, seek. The lovers play

to trap water,
tattooing smoke, at staying.
play the long sad game of love Nobody
for resignation.
say that nobody has to resign.
The lovers are ashamed to reach any agreement.

The lovers start singing a song from lips

not learned and they go on crying, crying for beautiful life
.
