A UN VECINO QUE EMPIEZO A CONOCER

Voy a contarte una historia de agua, una historia de olas, unas olas de piel que se desplaza y regresa, una historia que aun desconociéndola sé que sabes, sé que escuchas; sé que la palpas desde un día a la noche que vuelve, salpicada de sal y de espuma, en ese universo de ojos que se nos abren como un día que no deja de venir a nuestra orilla.
