The sun was leaving, Lupe
Thank goodness you showed up.
With 22 years floating around you,
you came to color the afternoon.
You sat on top of a pillar and that was enough to change everything.
What would have happened if you had posed standing up?
I couldn't, you said, it gives me vertigo.
I was having vertigo with every photo before these.
Thank goodness you showed up.
I was sitting at the end of Prado street,
bored and not wanting anything.
Let the night come, I want to go home.
Thank goodness I didn't leave
Thank goodness you showed up.
Thanks 
bring me three Lupes like this one
the next time.
El sol ya se iba, Lupe
Menos mal que apareciste.
Con 22 años flotando a tu alrededor
viniste a colorear la tarde.
Te sentaste en lo alto de un pilar y con eso bastó para cambiarlo todo.
Qué hubiese pasado si hubieras posado de pie?
No puedo, dijiste, me da vértigo.
Vértigo me daba a mi con cada foto antes que éstas.
Menos mal que apareciste.
Sentado yo en el final de la calle Prado,
aburrido y sin ganas de nada:
Que venga la noche ya, quiero irme a casa.
Menos mal que no me fui
Menos mal que apareciste.
Gracias
tráeme tres Lupes como ésta
la próxima vez.
Thanks for the opportunity!
