You showed me the kindness of your smiling face
Hace 3 o 4 años escribí un par de letras en inglés, con la esperanza de que les pusiera música I.F. (finalmente no lo hizo; qué pena). No las considero alta poesía, pero para ser los textos de dos posibles canciones, creo que quedaron apañaditas:
LETRA 1
When I was yours and you were mine
I only wanted to be your kind
We lived together in a really nice place
You showed me the kindness of your smiling face
We shared the joy and we buried the pain
We kissed and we hugged in the warm summer rain
We gave birth to a dream and we caressed a star
The bright light that guided us protected our hearts
But you changed your mind and you went away
I was hurt by your flight on a dark, lonely day
No explanations, I never knew why
Just thinking about it is making me cry
I lay in my bed when the full moon awakes
You've got what I need, you've got what it takes
To make my life shine, to make each day new
But now we're apart and I'm feeling so blue
Our sweet love won't grow, I know it is gone
Heaven, please, tell me what did I do wrong
A river of tears, a life spoilt by grief
I can't face alone what is yet to be
LETRA 2
Every night you fall asleep
On my breast, just like a child
Every night I stroke your hair
While you're dreaming of my smile
My whole body welcomes you
My bold soul rises insane
My tears fall and purify me
My lips just pronounce your name
Our warm bed's an open field
Where we unite endlessly
Blessed by the longing lovers
That once walked upon the sea
I look for you in my heart
And I find you flying free
It is so sweet and tender
You are flying next to me
I have never felt something
As strong as this love of mine
It blossoms like a flower
Whose beauty challenges time
When it all comes down to dust
I will still be holding you
I'll take your hand in heaven
And your love will see me true
