A time of shade

Translation of Cosa de sombra, from Spanish

 

That time was all about shade.

The shadow of my own life,

finally sheltering me.

The fierce light of everyday events

extinguished as I realised

I am only me.

From dawn until dusk,

the relaxing eclipse of the uncontrollable.

My surroundings left me at peace;

Surroundings around which life turns.
