Days of glory

I still remember that dark room,
With music all around us.
I still remember that precious moment when
Our gazes met with great intensity.
Those effusive kisses
That we exchanged lip to lip
Those caresses and caresses
With our hands intertwined
Like roots of a tree.
It was in that brief moment that I understood anew
How simple and fleeting is happiness.
Then I awoke from my waking dream
And realized that our love was impossible.
I knew how to face reality and
Undo my dreams.
To get away from that marvelous past
That led to nothing and...
That only remained in the past.
Then I woke up from my waking dream
And I realized that our love was impossible.
Our love...
Today I look forward, still with
My heart free of love.
But I still remember with great tenderness
That dark room
With music all around us.
Those kisses, that look and that brief instant
In which I understood again....,
How simple and fleeting is happiness.
Then I woke up from my waking dream
And I realized that our love was impossible.
