Cuban Diver

A "cortadito" is made by adding hot milk to a very strong espresso made of Cuban coffee.

...Y zambullirme en un cortadito
Para matar la urgencia de cerrar los ojos

y salirte a buscar.

... And dive into a cortadito
to kill the urge to close my eyes

and go out to find you.

ah, the things we will do for that which feeds our soul. you say oh so much with little. your words pack a powerful punch like the drink and are deep like that diver. we mustn't close our eyes else we could miss something important. good stuff - both the writing and the drink. i'll take one of each please! ... :)

Aaaah...nothing like "un cafecito por la tarde". Now we can 'abrir los ojos' and continue the search!

Love this as it says I deprive myself because you are so important to me. Ah coffee and its caffine stimulant effects can work wonders for those tired eyes!

Been drinking Cuban coffee since I was 7 so my body has gotten used to it. Here in the US some people joke around and call it crack lol. Glad you enjoyed my homeland!
