Coronita de Flores
Juan Luis Guerra 4.40
Little Crown of Flowers
I have a love
that undresses at night
and sleeps awake in my dream
sweet anarchy that is consuming my body
I have a love
disguised as a cloud
that floods my creed with abyss
the rain cries
the memory gets wet
and the breeze fills with you
And I have a band-aid in my veins
to prevent your love from hurting me if it has to leave
I light a candle in the corner
of my soul to not suffer
I have a little house in my chest
in case a kiss from you gets lost
bitten by April
and a little crown of flowers
to remind you of me
Give me the blue that starches your voice
love that doesn't love gets lost
it tends to look in the mirror and die transparent
what more can I give you?
a fennel of light
or a ring of shadow on the forehead
The rain cries, the memory gets wet
and the breeze fills with you
And I have a band-aid in my veins
to prevent your love from hurting me if it has to leave
I light a candle in the corner
of my soul to not suffer
I have a little house in my chest
in case a kiss from you gets lost
bitten by April
and a little crown of flowers
to remind you of me
[Improv.]
