Is it three months already, Lionel?

 

Lionel Messi created history three months ago on this day

Is it three months already, Lionel?

Seems just like yesterday, that my heart felt full

And my life, complete.

When we shed happy tears

You and Me and millions of us

And the night had no end.

 

I have lived that day over and over and over again.

I am sure you have too

The excitement, the tension stifling the air

Agonies and ecstasies intertwined

The elation of that final kick

The realization of a lifelong dream.

 

I have lived that day from three months ago over and over again

Well aware of the glorious end.

And I have revelled in that excitement, that watershed moment.

When the world bowed to your genius.

I have bathed in that pure joy

just like it was yesterday.

 

Is it three months already, Lionel?

Perhaps

Or perhaps I haven't aged a day, still living each moment,

in fond remembrance,

Of the greatest night of my life.

Our lives.
