Septiembre

We saw each other and something happened, that moment was so long
The miracle of sharing our lives by looking at each other
The gaze was a flame and the flame was fire
You gave me your phone number, a kiss, and a goodbye
Thus, nights of red wine and conversations came
Talking about extinct fears, murky experiences
We decided to be the wind and fly without hurry
Being a breeze before, willing to stop time
We didn't know to look at the ceiling if sex ended
We didn't know to keep our secrets under our chest
I kidnapped you between the lines of a poem
You saw someone worth it behind the green dog
With no more problems than going to dinner and choosing a menu
With no more discussions than
Should I call you? Or should you call me?
With the future light-years away and a useless past
We joined our nothingness, thus everything became possible

Today I saw your image reflecting in a puddle again
I breathed you in again as someone passed by
Sitting on that bench, in case I see you again
I returned to that September
That promised forever

Today I remembered you again when I woke up
I pretended again and said it shouldn't matter
I arrived late again and my good luck had already left
I returned to that September
That promised forever

Then we woke up together, fought together
We went out into the world to swallow it together
We were two apprentices, you watered my roots
I explained to you the reason for my wrinkles and scars
I told you about my craziness, my fulfilled dreams
With you, the old wolf was just a sleeping puppy
Both so alive, sailing through life and its peaks
Always observing each other, taking notes
You brought landscapes and that Dior perfume
I brought stains from my previous life with my Nike
We merged if the pain died, we were dynamite
Before and after you, there is only infinite loneliness
But love withers and then dies
When the drops of pleasure dry up, the defeats hurt
I know I can't love without my spirit getting fungus
Now that you're gone, there's only dust

Today I saw your image reflecting in a puddle again
I breathed you in again as someone passed by
Sitting on that bench, in case I see you again
I returned to that September
That promised forever

Today I remembered you again when I woke up
I pretended again and said it shouldn't matter
I arrived late again and my good luck had already left
I returned to that September
That promised forever

How am I going to separate from the spell and the magic?
If as a child in school I got A's in nostalgia
How to accept my misfortune if I'm just a specter?
With so many lights outside, and so many shadows inside
Today I understand that living is dodging the bitter drink
As if it's raining and you just jump over the puddles
Today I know that love arrives, plays, and stirs everything up
Then it leaves and you have to pick up the pieces alone
