Tu Partida

What will become of that corner that secretly watched us
Faithful witness of the love that was born between you and me
I never knew if it reached the heights and today it seems it didn't
And even though the whole world was waiting for you
You decided to abandon everything

That everything was going to fall into place
And even time engraved in my hands
Went in search of your heart
That one afternoon waiting remained

I won't know how to reach the end of the road by following
Every step of this being pales in comparison to returning
The nostalgia of your presence hovers, beautiful, over my disdain
Faded image of the future
That tolerates my anxiety to move forward

And managed to deceive my will
And this wound that cries out for peace
That can't find the place where your departure from our corner left

And even though the whole world was waiting for you
You decided to abandon everything
That everything was going to fall into place
And even time engraved in my hands
Went in search of your heart
That one afternoon waiting remained
