Those I love forget me

They are there, whether it is dawn or dusk,

In spring or winter, in the night or at dawn,

Those I love, in this world or the next,

Their love blossoms without me, it's ridiculous.


Those who love me forget me. It was yesterday, my words for you,

Those who love me forget me, a promise of eternity,

They are crazy, crazy, alone, binding us in this duality,

They are crazy, crazy, alone, sleeping together, arms against you.


Those who love me forget me, yesterday has faded into tomorrow,

Those who love me, their presence, the only path to follow,

Those who love me have a heart, with yours, deliver

Those who love me forget me, a love that knows no end.


Those I love forget me

Those who love me forget me, our loves, past and future intertwine,

Those who love me forget me, under the sky, silent witness,

Those who love me forget me, covering our precious history,

Those who love me forget me, under its canvas, our lives embrace each other.

I closed my arms around them, love, a dance that makes you tremble,

As long as you want, together, our dreams will sail.

In the embrace of the stars, our eternal journey,

Those who love me forget me, but our love remains real.

The seasons change, the years fade,

But our love persists, unwavering, everywhere.


In the book of time our history is engraved,

Those who love me forget me, but our love only braves.

So, together, in the infinity of our dreams,

Those who love me forget me, but our love emerges.

May this poem resonate in the echo of time,

Those who love me forget me, but our love is a song.
