When I closed your eyes

Inez Vega

when I closed your eyes

you were saying inconsistencies
Your gaze was crystal clear
I still feel the pain of your absence
I don't know how I survived without you

When your eyes closed, part of my life closed, today I'm reinventing myself
With my memories of you, I will continue to be happy in this life.

I love you and I will love you forever
