Pedacito de Cielo
Edmundo Rivero
Little Piece of Heaven
The house had a gate
Painted with complaints
And love songs
The night filled with dark circles
The gate, the ivy
And the old balcony
I remember back then you laughed
If I read to you
My best verse
And now, whim of time
Reading those verses
We both cry!
The years of childhood
Passed, passed
The gate is asleep from so much silence
And in that little piece of heaven
Your joy and my love stayed
The years have passed
Terrible, wicked
Leaving that hope that will never come
And I remember your mischievous gesture
After that kiss
Stolen by chance
Maybe your warm laughter
Cooled with the breeze
Your clear voice
Maybe your dark circles escaped
The gate, the ivy
And the old balcony
Your burnt sugar eyes
Had golden
Distances in the sun
And today you want to find like back then
The bronze gate
Trembling with love!
