Do you still think of me?
Being so far from you is surely the most interesting experience I’ve ever had before. I It is a mixture of sadness, tenderness, anxiety, etc. William Shakespeare wrote once: “All days are nights to see until I see you, and nights are bright days when I dream about you” (I paraphrased it a little because it was written in old English). This phrase beautifully tells about the feelings of a person when he is separated from his beloved. Even “Dryden” (another poet) says: “Love reckons hours for months, and days for years; and every little absence is an age.” The feeling of missing someone is special. On the one hand, it gives you pain and on the other, it makes you realize how important is a person in your life. You tend to see your beloved everywhere and whenever you are free from those stressing activities of your daily routine. When her image comes to your mind, you are taken to another world that moves around her thoughts only.
Music is art, and that’s why it is closely related with the way I see life. I love music, specially because melodies and sounds they can exactly tell what our feelings have to say about something. The harmony between melody and a beautiful voice is what I appreciate most. (I guess everyone does)
Love songs and distance
After I wrote this post, I happened to listen a very nice (and romantic) song which is just related with this topic. When I listen to it, the lyrics manage to touch those inner feelings within my heart. I don’t know if you have experienced something like this before. Artist must be able to recall previous experiences and memories and bring back the emotions and feelings involved in order to pour it on canvas, sketchbook or etc. It is in Spanish, and the singers are two guys: one of them is from Mexico and the other one from Argentina. This song tells about a man who is far from her lover and how he do not care about distance. If you like it, I will translate it for you.

Lyrics
A varios cientos de kilómetros
puede tu voz darme calor igual que un sol
y siento como un cambio armónico
va componiendo una canción en mi interior
Sé que seguir no suena lógico
pero no olvido tu perfume mágico
y este encuentro telefónico
me ha recordado que estoy loco por ti
Que todo el mundo cabe en el teléfono
que no hay distancias grandes para nuestro amor
que todo es perfecto cuando te siento
tan cerca aunque estes tan lejos
A varios cientos de kilómetros
tiene un secreto que decirte mi dolor
en cuanto cuelgues el teléfono
se quedará pensando mi corazón
Que todo el mundo cabe en el teléfono
que no hay distancias grandes para nuestro amor
que todo es perfecto cuando te siento
tan cerca aunque estes tan lejos.
오 이거 너무 감동적이다
나에게 너처럼 멀리서 나를 그리워하고 걱정해주는 이가 있어
진짜 감격스럽다
네 말대로 우리가 떨어진 거리가 뭐가 중요하겠니?
마음이 함께 한다고 느끼면 충분한걸…
넌 나에게 보석같은 존재란다
늘 고맙다.

I’ve been working hard trying to translate these words. It’s been a challenging tasks because I feel just like when I was learning English. So many words I cannot relate yet. But that’s the interesting part! ♫
