Lucia

Fly this song
for you, LUCIA,

the most beautiful love story
I had and will have.

It's a love letter
that the wind carries

painted in my voice

to nowhere

to no mailbox.

There is nothing more beautiful

than what I never had.

Nothing more beloved

than what I lost.

Forgive me if

today I search in the sand

for a full moon

that scratched the sea...

If I was ever just a passing bird,

I forgot to nest in your arms.

If I was ever handsome and good,

it was entangled in your neck and your breasts.

If I was ever wise in love,

I learned it from your singing lips.

If I ever loved,

if one day

after loving, I loved,

it was for your love, LUCIA,

LUCIA... your memories are

every day sweeter,

forgetfulness only

took away half,

and your shadow still

lies in my bed

with the darkness,

between my pillow

and my loneliness.
