A Julieta y Romeo… o ¿a Aquiles y Desdemona? Bien. Mejor,
a quien corresponada…
« A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo. »
W. S., Romeo and Juliet, S III, Exeunt.
Dice Lawrence Durrell, en Clea, que una mujer es sólo la idea que nos hacemos de ella, que sólo existe en nuestra mente que su presencia, incluso su cuerpo, es el lienzo sobre el cual pintamos nuestra idea de Ella. Misses Plath, al parecer opina lo mismo y, duda si la chica es real o, un invento de su mente. Lo que es cierto, es que cuando cae uno en estos trances, irremediablemente, el mundo sí cae muerto al cerrar los ojos, las estrellas bailan y se escapan los ángeles y, los demonias, como dicen, andan sueltos y, se apaga el infierno y, se cae el cielo. Pero cuando la eternidad (suele ser una corta eternidad) de estos amores, se acaba, resulta que hay que revivir al mundo, reencender el infierno, apuntalar el cielo, perseguir y capturar ángeles y demonios… en un halo de desencato tal, que los seis muertos en tres días de la tragedia de amor de Shakespeare, se nos quedan cortos… restan cosas y faltan aún más, querer enamorarse de un rayo tiene sentido, así como olvidar, decidir al infinito, que fue un invento, algo que nunca sucedió, un sueño… pero los sueños no dejan marcas en la piel y lo único que nunca tendrá sentido, es vivir sin amor… El reino de este mundo es corto y lleno de drama, sin embargo hay seres bien dispuestos a morir o matar sólo por amor. Sin pregutar, porque lo saben, ¿por quién doblan? las campanas.

Mad Girl's Love Song.
"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head).
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head).
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head)."

Canción de amor de la joven loca.
Cierro los ojos y el mundo cae muerto;
Levanto los párpados y todo esta naciendo otra vez.
(Creo que te inventé en mi mente).
Las estrellas salen en un vals azul y rojo,
Arbitraria galopa la negrura:
Cierro los ojos y el mundo cae muerto.
Soñé que me hechizabas en la cama
Cantabasa ritmo de luna, me besabas con demencia.
(Creo que te inventé en mi mente).
Dios cae del cielo, las llamas del infierno se debilitan:
Escapan serafines y soldados de satán:
Cierro los ojos y el mundo cae muerto.
Ilusión de que volverías como dijiste,
Pero crecí y olvidé tu nombre.
(Creo que te inventé en mi mente).
Debí haber amado al pájaro de trueno, no a ti;
Al menos cuando llega la primavera, ellos vuelven a rugir.
Cierro los ojos y el mundo cae muerto.
(Creo que te inventé en mi mente.

A lovestruck Romeo sings a streetsuss a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, You and me babe—how 'bout it?
Juliet says, "Hey it's Romeo. You nearly gimme a heart attack"
He's underneath the window; she's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back.
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that.
Anyway what you gonna do about it?"
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, then you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah.
Now you just say, "Oh Romeo, yeah. You know, I used to have a scene with him."
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die."
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talks like they talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'll do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat, the bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Julie, I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die."
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
And a lovestruck Romeo sings a streetsuss a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
And says something like, "You and me babe—how 'bout it?"
"You and me babe—how about it?"
