El Mensajero

Voy corriendo, escapando
Porque no me queda nada
Tironean los recuerdos
En mi alma atormentada
Me retumba el corazón
Como caja destemplada
Persiguiendo un resplandor
A través de la quebrada
Nubes de plata en el horizonte
Voy galopando sin saber a donde
Hoy llegó un mensajero
Las alforjas en llamas
Sin sacarse el sombrero
Dejó caer su puñal
Me acaricia el rumor
Del agua entre las piedras
Fluye desde el interior
Desde el centro de la tierra
Busco el jardín de las flores blancas
Quizá ese detrás de aquella barranca
La mejilla en la arena
Y el caballo en el río
Quisiera echar las penas
Sé que te voy soñar
