Soy Lo Que Soy

I could've been your shadow,
The echo of your words,
The kisses where your kisses
Left stars embedded.
I could've been the silence
Where you would rest
With your bags under your eyes of forgetfulness,
So tired, so alone, so far away.
I could've been the space,
The sky you would walk through;
And in the blue of my heart
Your wings could've been blue.
I could've been the wait,
I could've been the distance;
A round horizon,
Past, present, tomorrow.
But I’m nothing more than what I am,
A breath of your breeze.
Moon on the sea, trying to catch
The foam of your laughter.
A song
Absent in your voice,
A lullaby.
True to my cross,
A beggar for light,
A path of mist.
I could've been the road
Where your steps would leave,
Heading who knows where
Your aching absence, engraved.
But I’m nothing more than what I am,
A breath of your breeze.
Moon on the sea, trying to catch
The foam of your laughter.
A song
Absent in your voice,
A lullaby.
True to my cross,
A beggar for light,
A path of mist.
