I KNOW IT'S NOT SO

About Patricia Evans' poetry

"Although I have spent time with Patrícia Evans on three separate occasions, I feel I know Patrícia Evans only through her poetry. She hides nothing, she surrenders everything. It is some of the most powerful poetry I have ever read. And I have read only English translations of her poems, so those who read her in her native Portuguese will experience her even more intimately. They should prepare themselves for imagery, anger, compassion, despair, humor, insight, knowledge of her self and the deepest love for those she loves, especially dad."

Robert E. Sheridan


Mr. Sheridan had been an editor for the New York Times for 32 years. He is also a poet, and a father.

FALLING IN LOVE

FALLING IN LOVE
(© Patrícia Evans)
.
So then I open my arms
and shelter your pain in me
I barely believe I am doing it
but even without knowing how,
opening my arms this way
and sheltering your pain in me
I amorously
recover.

Cuddling, if I may say...
But then again perhaps I mustn´t.
