Un día habré dormido con un sueño tan largo que ni tus besos puedan avivar el letargo. Un día estaré sola, como está la montaña entre el largo desierto y la mar que la baña.

About This Quote

Un día habré dormido con un sueño tan largo que ni tus besos puedan avivar el letargo. Un día estaré sola, como está la montaña entre el largo desierto y la mar que la baña. "Un día habré dormido con un sueño tan largo que ni tus besos puedan avivar el letargo." (One day I will have slept with such a long dream that your kisses cannot wake me up. One day I will be alone like the mountain between the long desert and the sea which lies above it.) This quote is one of my favorite quotes by Ana Mendieta who was a poet, artist, and revolutionary in her time.

This is a poem describing her life and the events that took place at the time she wrote this poem. She describes how alone she was at times between her love for two men who also loved her but were not in love with her at the same time.
