Me Equivoqué
Vanesa Martín
I Was Wrong
I was wrong to love him
I wasn't alone
I was wrong to feel the imprint of his eyes on my mouth
I had the touch embedded in my skin and I couldn't deny it
Imprudence was born with every intention of coming to win me over
I kept tons of doubts and nerves under my clothes
And halfway, I was someone else
He pulled me with the force of something that moves mountains
While the purest and most alive life never left me
I was wrong to want
The inertia of my skin
Take me
There downstream
Next to my wrists at the height of my face
With shame and anger, I declared an ambush to this love
Take me
There downstream
Make loneliness heal me
Feeling doesn't understand domains
Who knocks down the loser from their summit?
Sand and salt, handfuls to become aware
Pain wrapped in the same urgency-demanding saliva
I was wrong, sirs, if I don't deserve a seat, no, no, no
Don't forgive me
Don't forgive me
I sweated for his cheeks and all discourse
Remained blurred
I was wrong
I was wrong
I was wrong
I loved even his way of being silent
My name
Take me
There downstream
Next to my wrists at the height of my face
With shame and anger, I declared an ambush to this love
Take me
There downstream
Make loneliness heal me
Feeling doesn't understand domains
Who knocks down the loser
From their summit?
