O amor acaba ou Paulo Mendes Campos

Por xicosa
28/02/12 14:24

Vivo fosse, o cronista mineiro faria hoje 90 anos.

Nada melhor do que homenageá-lo com a republicação de um dos seus melhores textos, um dos mais citados e sampleados por este blogueiro vagabundo que vos posta.

Ei, moça, repare que assombro:

O amor acaba. Numa esquina, por exemplo, num domingo de lua nova, depois de teatro e silêncio; acaba em cafés engordurados, diferentes dos parques de ouro onde começou a pulsar; de repente, ao meio do cigarro que ele atira de raiva contra um automóvel ou que ela esmaga no cinzeiro repleto, polvilhando de cinzas o escarlate das unhas;

na acidez da aurora tropical, depois duma noite votada à alegria póstuma, que não veio; e acaba o amor no desenlace das mãos no cinema, como tentáculos saciados, e elas se movimentam no escuro como dois polvos de solidão;

como se as mãos soubessem antes que o amor tinha acabado; na insônia dos braços luminosos do relógio; e acaba o amor nas sorveterias diante do colorido iceberg, entre frisos de alumínio e espelhos monótonos; e no olhar do cavaleiro errante que passou pela pensão;

às vezes acaba o amor nos braços torturados de Jesus, filho crucificado de todas as mulheres; mecanicamente, no elevador, como se lhe faltasse energia; no andar diferente da irmã dentro de casa o amor pode acabar; na epifania da pretensão ridícula dos bigodes; nas ligas, nas cintas, nos brincos e nas silabadas femininas;

quando a alma se habitua às províncias empoeiradas da Ásia, onde o amor pode ser outra coisa, o amor pode acabar; na compulsão da simplicidade simplesmente; no sábado, depois de três goles mornos de gim à beira da piscina;

no filho tantas vezes semeado, às vezes vingado por alguns dias, mas que não floresceu, abrindo parágrafos de ódio inexplicável entre o pólen e o gineceu de duas flores; em apartamentos refrigerados, atapetados, aturdidos de delicadezas, onde há mais encanto que desejo; e o amor acaba na poeira que vertem os crepúsculos, caindo imperceptível no beijo de ir e vir; em salas esmaltadas com sangue, suor e desespero;

nos roteiros do tédio para o tédio, na barca, no trem, no ônibus, ida e volta de nada para nada; em cavernas de sala e quarto conjugados o amor se eriça e acaba;

no inferno o amor não começa; na usura o amor se dissolve; em Brasília o amor pode virar pó; no Rio, frivolidade; em Belo Horizonte, remorso; em São Paulo, dinheiro; uma carta que chegou depois, o amor acaba;

uma carta que chegou antes, e o amor acaba; na descontrolada fantasia da libido; às vezes acaba na mesma música que começou, com o mesmo drinque, diante dos mesmos cisnes; e muitas vezes acaba em ouro e diamante, dispersado entre astros;

e acaba nas encruzilhadas de Paris, Londres, Nova Iorque; no coração que se dilata e quebra, e o médico sentencia imprestável para o amor; e acaba no longo périplo, tocando em todos os portos, até se desfazer em mares gelados; e acaba depois que se viu a bruma que veste o mundo;

na janela que se abre, na janela que se fecha; às vezes não acaba e é simplesmente esquecido como um espelho de bolsa, que continua reverberando sem razão até que alguém, humilde, o carregue consigo;

às vezes o amor acaba como se fora melhor nunca ter existido; mas pode acabar com doçura e esperança; uma palavra, muda ou articulada, e acaba o amor; na verdade; o álcool; de manhã, de tarde, de noite; na floração excessiva da primavera; no abuso do verão; na dissonância do outono; no conforto do inverno;

em todos os lugares o amor acaba; a qualquer hora o amor acaba; por qualquer motivo o amor acaba; para recomeçar em todos os lugares e a qualquer minuto o amor acaba.

Do livro “Boa Companhia –crônica”, org. Humberto Werneck, ed. Companhia das Letras.
