Escalera

I'm sitting here
doing my part
no one suspects that at any moment I can flee
to a better place
without moving from here
just go down that staircase to the depths of me.

And I'm still here
but something is not the same
the air turns into something like the sea
and in that density
I am part of the sea
I am the wave, I am the water, the fish and the salt.

I always come back to myself
(the river seeks the sea)
when you're not here
it may be that in the end
(the change of season)
I look for you in the sea

“You are like the quiet, starry night, your silence is of a star, so distant and simple. I like you when you're silent because you're like absent, distant and painful as if you had died. A word then, a smile is enough and I am happy, happy that it's not true”

And I'm still here
but something is not the same
the air turns into something like the sea
and in that density
I am part of the sea
I am the wave, I am the water, the fish and the salt.

I always come back to myself
(the river seeks the sea)
when you're not here
it may be that in the end
(the change of season)
I look for you in the sea.
