And I Don’t Know Why

We present this work in honor of the 25th anniversary of the poet’s death.

Gloria Fuertes
Spanish
1917 – 1998

 

I’m sad and I do not know why;
I’ve drunk love,
and I’m still thirsty.
I’m alone… and I don’t know why
I would like to know, but I won’t tell…
I’m alone and I don’t know why,
I would like to kiss, and I don’t know who.
I’m in love… and I don’t know what.
I would like to know… and it can’t be.
I’m sad and lonely… and I don’t know why.
