PUPILAS

My pupils expand
Looking back
Memories in resin
That will never come back

But they still have life
Right here inside me
The end of the avenue
That I built myself

I feel like I'm betraying myself
For changing my story
With the same pupils
That focused without a rush

At peace with time
I no longer ask for more
It left me with my smile
And my skin more sagging

And I got ready
In my grandpa's suit that I tailored
I tried to fill my dad's boots
I opened the coffin to see myself

And now I know
If we cut branches, we will grow
It's too late to go back
And to be reborn, you have to bury yourself
