La Marea

I'm not more, I'm not less,
I'm not bad nor good,
I'm not sea, I'm not land,
I'm not peace, nor am I war.

I'm not a child nor old,
I'm not shadow nor mirror,
I'm not laughter nor tears,
I don't bring you closer, nor do I scare you away.

I am more like the tide,
I have bad days and good nights,
Days of cats, days of dogs,
Days when sometimes
I go to my burial,
But if you're missing,
My fantasy
Thinks it's night
When it's day.

I'm not air, nor fire,
I'm not fish, nor the hook,
I'm not a port, nor a ship,
I'm not the arrow, nor am I the bow.

I am more like the tide,
I have bad days and good nights,
Days of cats, days of dogs,
Days when sometimes
I go to my burial,
But if you're missing,
My fantasy
Thinks it's night
When it's day.
