A Little More

I stopped feeling
The need to feel you by my side,
I stopped wanting to live
With you, no more tears to hide.
I began to give myself,
When I needed it:
A little more of my time,
A little more self-affection.

Your caresses turned to dust,
Caresses from a body, cold and just.
You were there until the last breath,
Inert, like nothing left.

Every moment by your side
Was a great ordeal, I have it clear inside.
Despite your memory not coming with pain,
I’ll rise again, break these chains.
I’ll survive and find my way,
Stronger now, I’ll be okay.

I was the Titanic,
You, the iceberg, so tragic.
(I was falling deep…)
