Yesterday’s songs,melodies that make you rememberpast times,other days.

Melancholy that cries,nostalgia that shakes your innards,far hours,other nights.

Visions almost gone,faces that maybe will not come back,hidden yesterdays,other people.

Smiles already lost,kisses washed away by sweat,blurred recollections.other things.

Why don’t you call me?Why don’t you make my phone ring?I don’t know if you know that I’m up to my neck in shit,that it’s rising,It will rise until it suffocates me.

Life would be easier if you’d phone me today,everything would make sense if you’d do it.We could go for a walk and drink some [...]

I feel like writing a song today,making it sound so it can reach you,because no-one else matters to me.

I haven’t asked for many kisses,but always they have been denied.I cannot find your lips,that flavor of eternity that I’m yearning for.Forsaking all and drowning in you,this is what I want.

Sometimes I look at you and I [...]

I want to provoke the silence to listen to my machine of life.My insides make the energy of the person that I inhabit.I breathe.The heart makes the red rivers of my being flow.I exist.From my brain burst the words of my voice.I feel.Voice of the soul that I am,of the being that stays on the [...]

Like a frightened child. Is that bad?Writing SOS messages. Asking for help. Smelling fear. Alone. Looking for shelter. An embrace. A “don’t be silly, Don’t you worry. Tomorrow you’ll laugh at everything”.The bed doesn’t comfort me, spinning. Looking for a way out. Sleep doesn’t come.It’s not easy being fragile.Be a man. Don’t be pathetic. Don’t [...]

Distrust the one who kisses you with eyes open. I do not remember how this advice came to me. We always forget the good advice, and much more when love takes you flying, blinds you. Who is capable of kissing with eyes open when this sense lacks importance? Who is going to give [...]

Difficult to talk through the barrier of respect transgressed.You have to be a saint, maybe an idiot, to forget the insult.Why do we destroy love?We are nothing and we believe we are everything.A finite machine of meat and bone. A set of ideas arranged with selfish whim.Instinct of conservation.He started the animosity, you followed the [...]

I love you because when you sleep your beauty rests unattainable,and I want to dwell in your dreams to talk to you of my love.

I love you because when you awake I believe I am the owner of your body,and I would like to be the heart that makes your blood flow,move your muscles,feed your [...]

Today is a day to write nothing serious,because today you have to open the soul’s door,let life flow,and life is not serious if you wants to feel it this way.Today is not a day of study and prose,because these control the feelingsthat look for freedom,and the door of the soul needs an anarchic doorman.

Today is [...]

Big smile like the blue sky,looks sad and profound like the sea.Hair and sun as equal,delicate gesture,glass dove.

Don’t talk me about the past,nothing I want to know.Don’t ask me anything,nothing I want to answer.Just bury your watch in the sandand kiss me,kiss me,kiss me.

You know things are not going right outside,and everything is smashed inside.You [...]
