Here is a verse that I am trying to translate. My interpretation is every second line. Sometimes the translation is literal. As I have never been great on poetry, could you please check and correct where ever possible.

Escrito está en mi alma vuestro gesto,
Your facial expresión is written in my soul
y cuanto yo escribir de vos deseo;
I desire to write much about you
vos sola lo escribisteis, yo lo leo
I am reading it, what I wrote about you
tan solo, que aun de vos me guardo en esto
So alone, that even from you I am keeping myself in this

ps: there are two more verses, but I thought it would be too much at once.

vos sola lo escribisteis, yo lo leo
you wrote it yourself, I read it
you alone wrote it, I read it
