Does anyone know the poet who wrote this? I copied it from his book out but lost the name of the poet, Argentinian I think. Failing that ,does anyone know some recent Argentinian poets I can start searching through?
Quiero que me digas sin juzgarme.
Quiero que opines sin aconsejarme.
Quiero que confies en mi sin exigirme.
Quiero que me ayudes sin intentar decidir por mi.
Quiero que me cuides sin anularme.
Quiero que me mires sin proyectar tus cosas en mi.
Quiero que me abraces sin asfixiarme.
Quiero que me sostengas sin hacerte cargo de mi.
Quiero que me protejas sin mentiras.
Quiero que te acerques sin invadirme.
Quiero que conozcas las cosas mias que mas te disgusten.
Que las aceptes y no pretendas cambiarlas.
Quiero que sepas.... que hoy puedes contar conmigo...
Sin condiciones.
I don't speak Spanish so feel free to correct this translation.
I want you talk with me without judging me.
I want your opinions but not your advice
I want your trust without any demands
I want you to help me without trying to decide for me.
I want you to take care of me without erasing me
I want you to look at me without projecting yourself onto me
I want you to embrace me without smothering me.
I want you to hold me without becoming dependent on me
I want you protect to me without lies.
I want you closer without being invasive
I want to know what things about me upset you.
For you to accept them and not try to change them
I want that you know…. that today you can have me…
Without conditions.

Ta much. That's a five year old search ended.
He's a psychotherapist ? I love RD Laings 'Knots' and 'Do you love me', it is similar stuff. Are there other good poets you know who are also head-doctors?
