Mi Todo
Fernando Delgadillo
My Everything
Because everything is postponed from yesterday for later
because I roam the house and despair again
before dawn, everything except your body
Because nothing is my everything if there's nothing with you
because time is a bend and another way is forgetting
I don't understand your eyes, but I guess your voice
What awaits me tomorrow? If I wake up on fire
with the sun on my face and my desires with you
I will love the window to drown my senses
and let the calm come to give me relief
because sometimes I wander in the smell of your clothes
because I travel slowly from your bed to your things
as if looking for the step that leads me back to your mouth
Everything loses its light, looking for you
and in the center, there you remain, burning moon
because you're in my mind confusing the hours
because you return silently from light to shadow
disrupting everything when a verse mentions you
when a verse mentions you.
