Suavecito

Softly you put everything in its place
softly, like a puzzle to put together
you started correcting random evils
like the potter to the clay, like a breeze in a downpour
you conquered, softly.

You placed kisses exactly in the right place
softly, surgery to heal
the wounds left by the past without healing
and in the chaos of my hell you installed your government
and you swept softly.

Softly, you were almost imperceptible
without hurry little by little
you placed your unmovable flag,
softly, you were so devastating
step by step
your overwhelming patience saved me
softly.

Softly I was winning by knowing how to lose
softly without rushing to impose
with the calm that comes from a woman's touch
like a seagull's footprint, like a drop forms
you caught me softly.

You accepted me like a worthless left zero
you fought me with nothing in your favor
with the softness of a rumor moving
with the step of an elder, with the patience of a craftsman
you saved me, softly.

Softly, you were almost imperceptible
without hurry little by little
you placed your unmovable flag,
softly, you were so devastating
step by step
your overwhelming patience saved me
softly.
