about

sobre un poema de Raymond Carver

lyrics

BY THE TIME I CAME AROUND TO FEELING PAIN
AND WOKE UP, MOONLIGHT
FLOODED THE ROOM
MY ARM LAY PARALYZED,
PROPPED UP LIKE AN (OLD) ANCHOR
UNDERYOUR BACK.

"HELP ME," I SAID. AND TRIED TO HOIST MY ARM.
BUT IT JUST LAY THERE, ACHING,
UNABLE TO RISE ON ITS OWN. EVEN AFTER
YOU SAID, "WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S WRONG?"

YOU WERE IN A DREAM,
YOU SAID LATER,
WHERE YOU'D ARRIVED
EARLY FOR THE DANCE.
BUT AFTER A MOMENT'S (OF) ANXIETY
YOU WERE OKAY
BECAUSE IT WAS (REALLY) A SIDEWALK

"HELP ME," I SAID. AND TRIED TO HOIST MY ARM.
BUT IT JUST LAY THERE, ACHING,
UNABLE TO RISE ON ITS OWN. EVEN AFTER
YOU SAID, "WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S WRONG?"
