Surah al-Fatihah (Arabic: سُورَةُ الْفَاتِحَة ‎) is the first chapter (surah) of the Quran. Its seven verses (ayat) are a prayer for the guidance, lordship and mercy of God. This chapter has an essential role in Islamic prayer (salat). The primary literal meaning of the expression "al-Fatihah" is "The Opener," which could refer to this Surah being "the opener of the Book" (Fatihat al-kitab), to its being the first Surah recited in full in every prayer cycle (rakʿah), or to the manner in which it serves as an opening for many functions in everyday Islamic life.

Segundo volúmen del corpus poemario iniciado con Latidos. Poemas de madrugadas insomnes, silencios, reflejos, cadenas de latidos a través de la ventana. Un sueño imposible para soñarlo despierto.

Que tiñó mi alma de los colores más brillantes y la dejó para siempre desnuda. Son versos de silencio. Sus espinas son inevitables y como todas me recuerdan que viví con intensidad cada instante tras aquel espejo donde todo resultaba demasiado bello para creerse de verdad.
