Sendas Distintas
Julio Jaramillo
Different Paths
How different we are!
Your life begins
And I'm already
In the middle of the day
You don't even live yet
And I'm already tired of living
However
Like the plant
That longs to bloom
I persist eagerly in your company
So that you give
Warmth to my sadness
How close and how far!
I am the old dreamer
You the passionate girl
Who singing in the light
Goes like the bird
Yet, looking at you
A delight to my taste
That I am
An abandoned castle
And you, a rosebush
Blooming next to the wall
