Barquinho de Papel

When I leave you
I'll take blank paper
Spread a paper boat in every corner

I know
That love is easy to drown
And if you have a boat
Better chance to save yourself

But, now
You left before me
Didn't even leave me a fragile boat
For me to save myself from the shipwreck
That was giving you my heart

That's why I sing every poem in ode to you
And cut in folds
Another paper boat
For me

I don't miss you
I don't miss your smell
Of imported perfume
That you exported from me

I don't miss your rolled 'r'
Nor your kiss with a taste of teeth
That bites a poisoned heart

I don't miss you
Not at all, I don't even remember you
Nor your panting breath

I don't miss, I feel nausea
Distance
From your black sign
From your silence, the scream

I feel nausea
And I provoke it
I stick my ten fingers in my throat
To see if I vomit you
From my soul

When I leave you
I'll take blank paper
Spread a paper boat in every corner

I'm lost in a sea
Of your waves
And I row aimlessly
This paper boat

But, now
You left before me
Didn't even leave me a fragile boat
For me to save myself from the shipwreck
That was giving you my heart

That's why I sing every poem in ode to you
And cut in folds
Another paper boat
For us
