Seasons crawled
Seasons changed
Still we were all the same
When spent by her side
Not a day was ever bleak
They say Happiness is deluding
But of Happiness, we got a peak
One day though, she came around
In her eyes the knowing glimmer,
Creased with uncertainty I asked
"Estella, what's the matter?"
Words trembling, eyes damped,
The lightning of a comet,
Slowly at first, she put up her hand
And placed it on her stomach
"Everything is about to change
Even the things that matter
Because, Xavi" she said,
"You're going to be a father"
That moment was an opening
It was an end
And a new beginning
We trust in the providence
That has made us a family,
Bonding us all in our lifetimes,
As two of us became three
She said:
"I know a wonderful father
You will surely be
As wonderful as the lover
You have been to me
There are no words
On earth or up above
That for you and our baby
Can express my Love"
And that, perhaps, was the first time,
We truly felt ephemeral
And there awakens in both of us
A sense of our mortality.
