“What if…?”

Clock hands running, we should stop talking, the sunrise appearing in the back, the skyline saying goodbye, tears ain't here, anguish all over my skin, am I a fool for this? Deserted streets, lights red, yellow, and green ignite my smile, should we stop the car and turn it all around? Seatbelt on, rushing to the storm, I thought we were turning around, but it’s about time to die for this life.

When you lose somebody

The phone rings and that is my mom from home saying it’s gonna be tough, tears start running down your face, uncertain coming times await, the stars tell me you’re far from me, in the land of eternal life, now you see me from the high, that feeling in your bones makes you realize you lost somebody you love.

When you lose somebody, you’ll cry for the rest of your life.

When you lose somebody,...

The boy in the frame

Would’ve lived if I never left? 

Vinyl on the shelf, the cigarette on the desk, the smell of pastels.
Midnight stars ignite your heart. 
The heat goes to the sky, and your mind is burning down.
It’s time to draw your life, the brush paints the guy in the frame.
Blues, grays, and maroon make your new muse
Will it be your last chance? 
Will you be brave to hide your lies? 
Will it be anoth...

A life of a character

Standing in front of you, you’re not what you used to be, you’re tired I see it in your face, those brown eyes ask for a break. 

a break from what? I asked.

The world, you said.

What’s wrong with the world? I said.

The same as it ever was, he replied, we're living a play, don´t get out of character.

You can’t be yourself in this abstract reality of the moral rulers, you need to crea...

Come back!

Honey, come back home 

I’ve been alone for so long 

I don’t know how to love anymore 

I’ve been waiting here in the light 

Could you close the door? I won't say a word. 

Let me know the stars, I’ll grab your back 

Just come back and let me love you one more time. 

 

Christmas lights adorn the aisle, holding hands, cinnamon smell, snow in your hair, I feel the warmth of your...

Like water

Oh, baby, you come like water on a summer start.

Breathe deep, the cold air will blush your face and the mirage ends.
The green eyes look at you.
His voice resounds in the air.
I’ll be there.
You’re like water in my life, I can’t live without it.
It’s a need that could be a curse or an antidote.
I’d drink you for a lifetime.

The rain comes in a rush.
What would you do with us? 
What ...

A man with a heart

You´re always in a box,
the spotlight is on,
they judge you on how you talk and how you walk,
they only care about who’s in your bed, like a tragic satire where you lost your essence,
they got the ropes and you´re a puppet of their sideshow, 
that's the price of being a man with a heart,
the scene begins when the doors open and colors enter in a ray of hope.

You grew up thinking you owe s...

Hey, you!

Hey, you, who’s covering the sun with a hand, don’t you know it comes out daily? Why are you trying to reach the stars for people who can’t even see them shine? Don’t trust summer, it could be kind, funny, and warm. It's just waiting for the night to burn you out, will you survive? Try to find the light, if you're on the golden track, you are still alive, remember, it takes just a glance to put yo...

Tell me you won’t go

The moon is bright, will you go out tonight? I know it is hard to heal a hurt heart, is it worth it to leave your dreams behind, live your nights in a downtown bar, flying high, forgetting your past life? You were looking at me when you said: "It’s not bad, it will be just one".

Don’t go I’ll be there for you, I’ll show you the world, leave the bourbon in the box, it ain’t your mate, it will ca...

Sweet lies

Crossing walls where souls belong, you look at me like I was a ghost of your past life, it was that bad? The disdain on your face caught my day. I'm ready now, your sweet lies have buried me alive, are you prepared to die tonight? You’ll regret playing with a Pisces´s mind. 

September 21st, I was on the moon, champagne in the pool, your lips taste like grapes, does the good always fade in a bli...

I can’t move on

I can’t move on, I got lost in your soul, babe let me see the lights, I would pay the price, I would leave it all behind, I need a getaway now, would you like to take me to the summer end? 

I’ve never felt this trip before, the overdose is getting us, this flight is crashing down, the climax vanishes, and we’re running in a desert land. Why are you so afraid of clouds? I dried my heart for your...

Summer feeling 2.0

Hot’s in my bed, salt breeze invades my dreams, the sun kissing my skin, red cheeks when I saw you here, temptress you said: “We can have a drink by the beach”, I feel this will be a tragic trip, I said yes, I haven't heard myself, how would I know you would put me in a shipwreck? I should've known by the blue in your eyes, your face is not from this town.

I got a feeling in my bones, summer is...

Love is a god’s war.

Sunlight, fresh air, and flowers blooming, I’m sitting in the ground of my mind recalling our first glance. You wore gray as my heart; I wore blue as your eyes. I never imagined this would be the ending of me. I’d never thought I would find my Achilles heel in dark times. Eyes that would change how the river flows. I told myself I would be a barren land for evermore, but the light in your smile ma...

Blue Butterfly.

Really? Now you don’t know my name, even after three months in the game. Are you an expert in the art of knowing nothing or is it just my projection?

Sometimes it feels like you trying to kill me because you don’t want me. Am I a fantasy in the back of your mind? If the answer is yes, let me tell you that I’ve always desired what the world around us calls forbidden.

Perhaps you’re an illusio...

A summer feeling.

When the sun came out, I was there, there was nothing new, blue in the sky and gray in my room, scenario of a broken mind. In these crazy times, I can just sit and watch life moving like frozen in this everlasting pain. I’m the black of a white room, I can’t be part of the joke anymore, I’m trying to be myself again, but they broke me into a million pieces.

I’m shipwrecking in this empty room t...

How do you forget?

Why do we like spirals? cryptic and crazy like chasing a face in a maze surrounded by a midnight haze so heavy and dense that you can´t see your fate. how did we end up there? we like to self-inflict pain, let the rain cure us. how do you forget a foreboding day?

Hysterical days, everyone trying to save themself, crowds in Troya's gates, I crossed the fire hoping there'll be water in the castle...

It was not easy (Don't you think?)

Has it crossed your mind a sense of lust and us in the afterglow? Have you used your power to lose my north in your wonder’s world? Have you ever thought of me while you save sinners with some stitches? Have you ever liked me? Did you fake your smiles? Did you mean that? Did you know me, or it was just your spells disguised with that hero essence?

It was a counterfeit, and I was a puppet in yo...

My best friend

Butterflies in the sky, roses in the yard, this day the birds fly high, cause you turn another turn to the sun, let’s get some cake and merlot just in case.

You gave me the world and more to see a smile on my face, you don’t put a price, you are satisfied with a hug and an "I love you", the pure act of love, what can I do for you? Just be who you are, and make me proud, you said.

You’re kind...

What I want (something to dream about)

Blue room crying the truth, why is life so rude? Breaking bones to those who are looking for an antidote, people are waiting for you to bring the stars, telling you how good you are, but they’re never there when you’re in the haze, are we brave to face another day? what I want is a glass of wine and a good heart in these dark times.

Growing alone is not always a choice, on rainy days you’re pla...

In a dark room

I’m in an empty room staring at the brick wall, gray and blue is all I see, it’s just me and myself begging for a glimpse of mercy.

Mercy for a soul that was stabbed, stabbed by a twisted world that doesn’t let him love to whom his heart belongs. The storms they put in me are driving me crazy, and now the voices in my head are telling me I’m the broken one, fixing me to fit in, but whatever I d...

Feeling ok

You gotta away, I’m in the dirt, thinking if this would be the end, pretending smiles and writing rhymes to forget who you are, I’m feeling ok since you woke up Eros from the grave.

Flirting eyes, shy hearts, I’ve always been the one in the back, watching others falling into wonderland, would you like to bring me back to the light? Im feeling ok seeing your flawless face every day.

The 80s feeling

3 pm, I’m standing in front of the bed, hot breeze out there, summer souls are in our home, cobblestone leads to the sun, you waiting for something to go, maybe a cup of apricot. 

Music in the room, moon upon the roof, dancing to the Beatles, laughing at our accents, we don’t have a mysterious box to show this love, we just got vinyl and a sense of belief, would that be enough? 

Sunday night...

I like the gray in the sky when I’m in the yard, so quiet and calm as an empty shrine, there´s my mind on standby.

I like the rain on winter days, make me stay in bed, soft and warm as your palm that I grab when you walk the aisle.

I like the haze on cold days that cover the hope in my face, sad and tired on the holy ground, with a scarlet sky.

I like to cross smiles and hi’s in the sunri...

Dark age

Gazes free, reason of this dream, swords, and screams, it’ll be the ending of me, you’ll see.

It was inevitable to meet your soul in the after sun, bright eyes paralyzed me in the hallway wondering where you had been. Would you bring me back my brave? I wanna know your name! 

Baby, it’s written on your face, evil inside our veins, they are coming with flames surrounding us in a haze, ignoran...
