Yesterday

Yesterday, when all the hairs on my head were black,
I should have tried all the ways to dare my luck, 
but now it's gone and I don't know if it will come back 
to help me flee from this mud where I'm stuck. 

My only consolation was gaining my biggest lesson
to help me cope by the coming of dark season;
I must go on living still for my greatest reason, 
for, giving up on such a dream is like a treason. 

Yesterday, when I got the chance to say I love you,
I should have told you bravely that I loved you too;
That my love for you was nothing but pure and true;
That I'd always love you, even if the time is though.  

I should have showered you every morning with my kiss; 
I should have wrapped you every night with my embrace; 
I should have told you every moment, you're the one I miss; 
That being with you was an endless rains of bliss.
