Cuento Breve

Not always
A simple I miss you changes everything
You pretend
To validate your lie in any way

Go drown your sorrows
In alcohol
I'll be here
Erasing traces of your footsteps

I never stopped loving
I just stopped insisting
If someone loves you
They won't be far from you

Because love, when it doesn't kill, dies
I'll read our short story a thousand times
The clouds paint themselves gray and it doesn't rain
You spend your life deceiving whoever you can

This is the last time I love you
It will be the last time I feel jealous
To breathe, love
I don't need you anymore

We forgot to wind up the clock
After you left, every entrance closed
If it makes you feel better, the blame is on both of us
Growing as a person is knowing how to say goodbye

Because love, when it doesn't kill, dies
I'll read our short story a thousand times
The clouds paint themselves gray and it doesn't rain
You spend your life deceiving whoever you can

I never stopped loving
I just stopped insisting
If someone loves you
They won't be far from you

Because love, when it doesn't kill, dies
I'll read our short story a thousand times
The clouds paint themselves gray and it doesn't rain
You spend your life deceiving whoever you can
