If you find a girl who reads, keep her close. When you find her up at 2 AM clutching a book to her chest and weeping, make her a cup of tea and hold her. You may lose her for a couple of hours but she will always come back to you. She’ll talk as if the characters in the book are real, because for a while, they always are. Date a girl who reads because you deserve it. You deserve a girl who can give you the most colorful life imaginable. If you can only give her monotony, and stale hours and half-baked proposals, then you’re better off alone. If you want the world and the worlds beyond it, date a girl who reads.
Espera
Toda la noche le esperó, con el corazón prensado en los durmientes, en el sobresalto que vendrá a ser la memoria. Los silbatos estriaban la madrugada, entre la neblina él y el cansancio de los extranjeros. Nunca volví. Suspendido en el brillo de los ojos, quieto desde la estación de San Bernardo, observo los trenes que llegaban, de donde nunca partió mi regreso.
