When Flowers Die

Photo by N.S. Property of this blog

Soon enough the flowers die, each petal falls and dries,

Their magnificent fragance intensifies until it fades.

But, our desire is still here: the love, the joy, the care.

It doesn't really matter how long the flowers live,

They mean more than their own lives.

They were, are and will always be,
 The materialization of our fragile feelings.

Crazy

Yep, I'm crazy, yes I am.
Living and loving,
Moving and changing,
If that's being crazy,
Yes I am.

Sometimes I stare at myself
Asking terrible questions,
Being hurtful, cruel and even resentful.
But at the end of the day I have to admit:
Without my own love, I'd drown in desolation.

I Wish You....

Sleeping Woman by Man Ray

I found myself thinking about you,

Your smell, your skin, your taste.

I could swear I have just heard you.

Oh, my!

I found a corner of my heart that wants you,

Your scent, your touch, your flavors.

I could swear I have just felt you.

My, oh my!

These are the wonders of our brains,

The magnificence of our thoughts,

The simplicity of our feelings. They're just blinded.

Blinded, deaf, amnesiac.....

Oh, my!

I found myself thinking about your flaws,

Your anger, your sadness, your emptiness.

I could swear I have heard your pain.

Oh, my!

I found a seed of resentment that despises you,

Your voice, your strength, your colors.

I could swear I have felt your punches.

My, oh my!

But I remember, after the darkness there is a light,

A light called hope.

And I lean to the benevolence of forgiveness,

a never fading  fire.

And forever holding inside a  biased truth,

Called, after omission, love.

And even disguised as a thought,

Lighting up the darkest corner of my being,

They tickle, they move inside, they burn sometimes,

The ashes......  the ashes of our fearless fire. 

These are the wonders of our brains,

The magnificence of our thoughts,

The simplicity of our feelings. They're just blinded.

Blinded, deaf, amnesiac.....

Fight

Pele by Robert Hardgrave

I met a soul around the corner, suspicious but attractive,
even when the stars fell down, I kept looking at that soul,
and from the beginning I was told, to hold back my desire,
I, I picked a fight.

I fought the anger, and kissed it, the soul
I fought the sadness and laugh at it
I pretended to be kind and helped it
I used it, and then, and then left it.

I met a soul around the corner, hurt but shining,
even when the Sun rose up I kept looking at that soul,
and at the end i was told, to stay away and fight my will
I, I picked a fight.

I picked a fight.

A Storm

Restless, eager, loving
The intensity of your desire consumed me

Curious, shy and yearning
The feelings grew despite the sorrow

Have you ever met a soul with so much anger and so much love?
Did you ever want, so badly, to kiss so roughly it became a bite?

Like waves our feelings, a sea of sensations
Reality was much stronger than our  dreams

Unfilled, pressing, smitten
The intensity of my desire consumed you

Anxious, mad and sober
The feelings grew despite the romance

Have you ever met two souls with so much anger and so much love?

A storm,
From the beginning to the end,
We were a storm

If I Had A Boat

Here I post James Vincent McMorrow´s song "If I Had A Boat".

Chorus
If I had a boat, I would sail to you
hold u in my arms, ask you to be true
once I had a dream, it died long before
now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore

And now, for laughs and fun id like to post Lyle Lovetts´s song "If I Had A Boat".

Enjoy!

How Far Love Can Take Us

http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/2010/05/how_big_and_how_far_is_the_moo.php

Love could make you take a path,

forbidden, forgotten but existent.

Love could take you to the heights,

of mountains, of towers, no limits. 

How far love could take us,

up to us, deep to our feelings, no doubts.

How far could love take us?

A Drop Of Happiness

http://www.jaclynalderete.com/

I wish I could drown in a drop of happiness,
and my fears to go away.
I wish the voice of the silence could calm me,
and my soul to rejoice again.
I wish the colors and sounds could reach me,
and my heart to enjoy all of them.
I wish i could drown in a drop of happiness,
and my tears to go away.

Your Love Is A Song

 

Switchfoot - Your Love Is A Song

Because a heart in pain needs a remedy, 

someone to hold on to, needs love and more,  
and  more, and even when words are not enough,  
I know for sure a song can get right there,  

inside, and break the walls, and break the silence.

From my heart,

Un beso
