@m_corinnemusic @dekreel @martina @livgiordano Yay! I really appreciate it! if you *can* comment or critique, that would be great, but if not, that’s fine too. And if there’s any of it that you don’t understand, definitely ask me and I’ll translate words or explain structures or whatever. 🙂

So here’s one I wrote called “Olvido” or “Forgetting.” The background on this one is that I was getting to be friends with a Spanish speaker, but we were trying to communicate with limited English on his part and limited Spanish on my part, and I just wanted so much to overcome that language barrier, but it’s SO HARD (as all of you know) to actually improve your skills in a second language. 😛

Quisiera hablar más

de esta lengua

que me encanta.

Quisiera hablar más

contigo.

Pero…yo olvido.

Me olvido de como decir

lo que quiero decir.

Me olvido de las palabras.

Me olvido de tu lengua.

Me olvido de mi lengua.

Ningún idioma es suficiente

cuando yo veo tu cara.

Quisiera decir tanto más.

Pero yo olvido.
