Her Eyes Closed
Her eyes closed
And the world keeps going
Her mouth that was mine
Doesn't kiss me anymore
The echoes have faded
Of her loud laughter
And this silence is cruel
That hurts me so much
The merciful sweetness
Of her hands was mine
That gave my sorrows
Caresses of kindness
And now that I evoke her
Sunken in my sorrow
The braided tears
Refuse to flow
And I don't have the comfort
Of being able to cry
Why did life
So cruelly burn her wings?
Why this sinister
Grimace of fate?
I wanted to protect her
And death prevailed
How it hurts me
And my wound deepens
I know that now
Strange faces will come
With their alms
To relieve my sorrow
Everything is a lie
A lie is the lament
Today my heart
Is alone
Like predatory dogs
The treacherous sorrows
Guarding my affection
Gallop behind
And hidden in the waters
Of her kind gaze
Death crouched down
Marking its beat
In vain I nurtured
A feverish hope
Pain dug its claws
Into my living flesh
And while in the street
In wild revelry
The carnival of the world
Enjoyed and laughed
Mocking destiny
It stole her love
Why her wings
I know now
