Carta Urgente
Rosana Arbelo
Urgent Letter
There are things I write to you in letters
So as not to say them
There are things I write in songs
To repeat them
There are things that are in my soul
And will stay with you when I'm gone
In all of them, I end up saying how much I've loved you
There are things I write in bed
There are things I write in the air
There are things I feel so much mine that belong to no one
There are things I write with you
And there are things that without you are worthless
There are things and things
That end up arriving so late
There are things that time takes away
God knows where
There are things that remain anchored
While time runs
There are things that are in my soul
And will stay with me when I'm gone
And in all of them, I end up knowing how much you've loved me
There are things I write in bed
There are things I write in the air
There are things I feel so much mine that belong to no one
There are things I write with you
And there are things that without you are worthless
There are things and things
That end up arriving so late
There are urgent letters that arrive when there's no one left
