Las Puertas Entreabiertas

I imagined the blueprint of a perfect life.
You were the foundation of my existence.
You represented the unchanging and the everlasting and,
Now, where are you?

I anticipated that I wouldn’t have anywhere to go,
Just like yesterday.
I don’t want to admit that you won’t come back;
Another reason to keep going is gone.
All the impermeable things about loyalty
Drown in the memories. Now, where are you?

Temples are falling, the skies are dimming...
But I’m still right here.

I don’t think this is the best for us.
It’s impossible for everything to stay the same.
We live with the doors half-open.
You gave us strength and now you weaken us.

Temples are falling, the skies are dimming...
But you will always shine.

I don’t think this is the best for us.
It’s impossible for everything to stay the same.
We live with the doors half-open.
You gave us strength and now you weaken us.
You gave us certainties in a world that lost its way.
