what if your eyes

Location

what if your eyes were not the color of the sun

of a day full of life, fire, and sight

if even caress you, you did not move

with grace like a eagle soaring in the sky

if you were not around for another day

another week or another month

 

not at the moment

in the summer, where water impacts the sands

sounds of peace and tranquility

if you were not the moon that glows in the dark

that shines at night

 

oh baby, my mami

i could not love you so

but when i hold you, i caress everything that represents us

time, the beach, life we live

 

everything is alive so that i am alive

without even moving, i can see all

in your life, i see everything that lives
