Medellín

I see you there on the corner
I know it’s just a memory
But I cannot stare any longer
‘Cause you're no longer looking back at me

You never were one for talking
We found some peace in silencing
But no amount of pausing
Could prepare me for this deeper quieting

And in the night you held me closely
And wrapped the sheets around my feet
I was awake though you never noticed
I was watching you watch over me

You can’t escape from the moment
It just keeps happening
But if I let my mind go then
For a moment we are back in Medellín
