Can I?


Can I experience
Spain with you?

Can I hold your
hand in the night
while strolling down the
alleys of El Sol,
searching for churros y chocolate.

Can I experience
Spain with you?

Can I wake up next
to you in your
arms, with drool
dried on our cheeks,
staring out the window
as the shine of the sun
lay upon us, as we
regret but relish
in the past night.
A night filled with
laughter, dancing,
alcohol, music,
churros y chocolate.

Can I experience
Spain with you?

Can I ‘siesta’ with you
in the middle of the
day, when the sun is the highest
and the streets are
the quietest.
And dream about the
crispy churros y the
thick, dark chocolate.

Can I experience
Spain with you?

Can we go to Atoche,
travel to Barcelona,
Run with the Bulls
through the defecated
streets, as we
meet strangers who
quickly become friends after
seeing death and life in
‘los ojos del toros.’
Experiencing laughter
over churros y chocolate.

Can I experience
life with you?

Can we go to Spain,
travel through the
streets of Madrid,
Barcelona, Toledo,
Ibiza, enjoying life,
enjoying each other,
with the only care
hugging our minds is
when and where we
will find and eat our next
churros y chocolate.
