Marcas de Amor
Ulpiano Vergara
Love Marks
I have decided to erase
Those tattoos
The ones you wrote all over my skin
On a summer afternoon
With tender kisses that said love me
And those caresses that pretended to desire me
Because it's very sad to wake up
Knowing that your love is a play
You were so important to me
You can't imagine
The early morning under the moon
I sat down to miss you
I looked up at the sky
And a sad star
Confessed to me that I shouldn't love you
And I have decided to follow its advice
To not hurt myself
Because what exists in you is so obvious
That you don't love me
That nothing matters
If you only knew even a little bit
How much I loved you
You caused so much harm in me
A little more and you would have left me soulless
I didn't want to see that you didn't want
Not even my words
It was a sin to see love in you
And an adventure of a fairy tale
You go through the world like a hummingbird
From branch to branch
Today you have condemned me to say goodbye
And give forgetfulness to my gray hairs
And resign myself that it was an illusion
What you gave me
Why did I have to love the wrong person?
I just wanted to be happy
I gave you my whole heart
I wonder why I have to live this pain
The traces you left on me
Are called disillusionment
And today all that remains of you
Are love marks
The love marks on my being
Are so many memories and wounds
I want to erase them from my skin
For all the harm you did to my life
I gave you all my love
And my affection
You didn't know how to value me, you're conceited
And now that you want me, for what?
To keep loving you so conceited
