mi amor propio no es irrespetuoso
No alimentarƩ tu ego
para probar mi amor
porque su apetito es demasiado grande
requiere demasiado
y me tragarĆa entero
y aun estar insatisfecho
mi amor propio no es irrespetuoso
mi amor propio no es egoista
es autoconservaciĆ³n
es una amabilidad
a un alma abandonada
una negativa a ser una soluciĆ³n rĆ”pida
a tu hambre interminable
