Me contaron

The holidays are approaching and I don't want to go back
to that city, where I loved you for the first time
and then every summer, I returned just to love you
without caring that it was a sin,
because someone else lived for me,
and someone else loved you too,
today I could read in your letter, that you want to see me,
and feeling so guilty, I wanted to write to you
it's not that I've become a coward, but it's fair,
if you forget me, I don't want to deceive that woman anymore,
who gives everything for me, it won't be for you,
and I don't want to get my hopes up more than now about your life,
It hurts me to say it like this, but I don't want to go back anymore
I can understand that you love me, but you know,
it's not right my love because, deceiving her burns me,
hurting her kills me, if I live it's because of her
and your anguish traps me, I know I had forgotten,
because it hurts me too, I have also wanted
and doing this hurts me, but it's the best.
The following week of that summer,
when I swore to God that you were leaving me,
without seeing you again, loving each other was not right
and yet we sinned today I confess I haven't forgotten you,
but we must give up, my return is not the best
when you read this letter you will understand,
that it hurts the one who loves us there is no forgiveness from God,
ours is an impossible we are not fair if we persist,
when you finish it, tear it up, it will be the best, don't come back to me
I remember it will hurt me, I'm so sorry for you,
there will be no punishment, if we forget it;
It hurts me to say it like this, but I don't want to go back anymore
I can understand that you love me, but you know,
it's not right my love because, deceiving her burns me,
hurting her kills me, if I live it's because of her
and your anguish traps me, I know I had forgotten,
because it hurts me too, I have also wanted
and doing this hurts me, but it's the best.
