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."
