Es Más Joven Que Tú

One more day
You woke up
Alone
Just like yesterday
Just like the day before yesterday just like
Always
So many mornings since he left

And as you look at yourself in the mirror
You wonder why
And the answer comes
Cold as a knife
Straight to the
Heart
He's younger than you

And a thousand images
Lived with him
Cross your mind
When everything was different
When he was in love and
You had him
Trapped in your kisses

And your gaze fills
With a languid sadness
Remembering
That you made his dream yours
Helping him climb
Every step
From your discreet
Womanly plane

One more day
To face
Alone
Being a woman
In a world that feels strange to you
Because your whole world was in him

And you feel like a traveler who
Missed his train
And you ask no one
Why he left with her
And the answer doesn't take long to come
He's younger than you

And despite the wounds
You imagine him by your side
Every night
Like when he loved you
When your body was still young
And when the loving kiss

And your gaze fills
With a languid sadness
Remembering
That you made his dream yours
Helping him climb
Every step
From your discreet
Womanly plane
