A life can be destroyed quicker than it is created.
The beginning, cared for and planned,
The end, unwanted and unexpected
A life is taken quicker than made.
Nine months of warning, waiting, hoping,
Only a short time for goodbyes.
There is a lifetime to welcome a soul,
Plenty of time to meet someone new.
......
I feel your breath upon my cheek
Your heartbeat next to mine
Cradled in your arms; but know
It’s just for one last time
I look into your eyes: you smile
That smile just breaks my heart
Lying here so close, but know
We’re really worlds apart
......
Seda y rosas en el camino,
corazón vacío de pena y sentido,
me llevan la corriente y el rocío.
Me voy al mar,
con mis dolores y penas,
con una sonrisa en la cara,
y alegría en la mano,
libre al fin de las esposas del “en vano”.
