Nos Reconocimos
Nohemi Barajas
We Recognized Each Other
It was a January afternoon when
For the first time I saw you
I captured that moment
And kept it to myself
And your brown eyes shone
And so did mine
Our laughter caught us
And everything went so well
Something about you made me fall in love
And even though I tried to hide it
I pretended not to feel anything
And the universe put everything in its place
And we recognized each other
Like the falling of this evening
That recognizes the nightfall
Like the power of your being
And we recognized each other
You know it, I know it, and we knew it
You know it, I know it, and we understood it
That we belong to this place
We discovered
It was that great magnetism
That brought us here
And we recognized each other
The moon was a witness
Lowered the sky and the stars of the kiss we gave each other
And the universe put everything in its place
And we recognized each other
Like the falling of this evening
That recognizes the nightfall
Like the power of your being
And we recognized each other
You know it, I know it, and we knew it
You know it, I know it, and we understood it
That we belong to this place
We discovered
We discovered
