Saturday, September 27, 2003I met Julieta online in the summer of 2000. A week later we were kicking back at the porch of her house, in Ivanhoe, California, 180 miles away from where I live. As we talked, she took notice of every car that passed in front of her house. She’d even wave to many drivers, friends of hers. Because her neighborhood was predominately hispanic, cars would drive by with loud Mexican music. She enjoyed listening to the music coming and going, but there was a song for which she would ask me to hold my thoughts. This song that she loved so much was “Yo Sé Que Te Acordarás”, by “Banda El Recodo”. It then became evident to me that she was heartbroken, too. This is how the song goes… Translation:I know you shall remember me. Of this I’m highly certain. You’re to see the sun rise, marking the beginning of a new day, and find yourself in someone else’s arms, feeling this person’s skin, but you shall never again have a love as pure as mine. I gave you my all. I let you have my life. I adored you with my soul. Alas, I was mistaken, you were not capable of returning my feelings, as you lacked the heart to do so. I will forget you, I swear by this cross, made of my fingers and kissed by my lips, that I’m not lying. You will suffer. You will cry. And then you’ll know what I’m going through. You will remember those kisses that we gave each other, and you shall return to the place where you and I met, because I know you shall remember me.
