Estella came home one day

On a sad afternoon of November

She had been crying, I could tell

She looked shaken all over


My heart dropped imagining

Scenarios of the worst

As her eyes held things to fear,

And words that hurt


"Xavi, remember when

You told me to seek for a doctor

As that odd cough I've been having

Had me breathless like a collar?


I just came back,

They recommended a specialist

My love, would you believe

It's worse than we thought it,


Darling, he said I was sick

And my chest is starting to sear

They said it was only going

To go downhill from here


Xavi, I am scared

My body feels so sore

They said I can't be treated

There's no way back anymore"


In that moment,

The sinking feeling took over

I didn't want to believe it

I couldn't keep composure


"No, no! It can't be true

There has to be a way

There has to be a cure"

I begged and pleaded

Though everything felt unsure


"Daring, don't you get it?

I don't think I'll live long

My Love, it's much too late

They found a tumor in my lung."
