question 1
(Enem -2010)
Sonnet
Already from death the pallor covers my face,
On my lips the breath faints,
Deaf agony the heart withers,
And it devours my mortal being disgust!
From the bed to the soft backrest
I try to retain sleep... it's already fading
The exhausted body that rest forgets...
This is the state the hurt has put me in!
Goodbye, your goodbye, my longing,
Make that insane living deprive me
And have my eyes in the dark.
Give me the hope with which I kept it!
Turn your eyes to the lover for pity,
Eyes for those who lived who no longer live!
(AZEVEDO, A. complete work. Rio de Janeiro: Nova Aguilar, 2000)
