Se Me Fue

He left with the sun
Without speaking, without a goodbye
I don’t remember either his face or his voice

He left with shyness
With the light of dusk
Now I know that I didn’t understand him

He left without warning
I couldn’t go with him
To his date with darkness
I don’t know if he misses me
If at last he forgave me
I only know that he’s no longer here

He went so normally
One afternoon, one more day
So quickly that I couldn’t forgive him

He looked at me, he smiled
As if I was supposed to know
Maybe his smile was a goodbye

He left without warning
I couldn’t go with him
To his date with darkness
I don’t know if he misses me
If at last he forgave me
I only know that he’s no longer here

He went so naturally
Like the river goes to the sea
He went from here to eternity

I don’t know if he misses me
If at last he forgave me
I only know that he’s no longer here
And what’s worse, he won’t be back
