Tantas Cosas

So many things that keep us apart
so many forces that push us away,
so many headwinds, so many stubborn currents
and yet, and yet..

so many words left unspoken
so many stories left to live
so many drowned cries
tears that have been shed
i'm left with the memory of your laughter
how many barriers will we have to break down
how many walls, mountains to crush
how many barriers, how many borders
how many borders will we have to cross

so many borders, so many barriers, so many prisons
so many guards opposing our madness
so many moments of joy
so many moments of hate
so many tears, without consolation

so many stars left unshined
so many cards left to play
so many dreams with longing
so many sorrows without comfort

and I just hope you come back to my side

how many barriers will we have to break down
how many walls, mountains to crush
how many barriers, how many borders
how many borders will we have to cross
