You arrived too late… my heart took flight again on different wings; it no longer needed the volcano spewing that lava, nor the shadow that enfolded it… as I walked alone. You arrived too late… eyes with blue pupils were waiting for me, a tenderness I’d never known… was caressing me, and the world changed course— it no longer ran, but flew. You arrived too late… for a long time, I waited for you… but you never came. You arrived too late… one by one, the minutes I was counting slipped away; your light, amidst the shadows… no longer shone, and arms open wide with hope were waiting for me. You arrived too late… you left everything for tomorrow, you lost track of time, I faded from your memory, and a serene voice called to me from the distance. You arrived too late… for a long time, I waited for you… but you never came. You arrived too late… love was withering from thirst, and a watering can of dreams came to nourish… my soul with new hopes. You arrived too late… for a long time, I waited for you… but you never came. Yes, you arrived too late… so very late…
