Encounters

With you I want to live
Unconditional acceptation
Confidence in asking
Exploring and playing

With you I want to understand
That life is for living and laughing
And death doesn´t separate us eternally
So there will be no need to cry

Will you take care of me
My nights and my worries
Will you be the lighthouse
That illuminates my dreams
And all my childhood wishes

I will be your woman entirely and completely
An adult when you feel like a child
Insecure, lost, or vulnerable
Your inspiration when tiredness strikes you down

I will be the fountain of your
Intimate and rational desires
I will transmute your routine instants
With small explosions of tenderness

I want to share with you a life of loving-seeing
Experiencing, feeling, being
There will be no need to dream me
When you need me the most

Together we will open up the world
And discover the way
To a space of reflection
And stimulating action
A world where we can feel and make
A vital compromise to ourselves and to each other

I promise to always return to breathe your air
To contemplate the beauty of your light
To color my skin with your sun and your salt
To fall in love willingly or unwillingly

The unexpected, the desired
The inevitable, the dreamed
When the time comes
Everything will come true
But without encounter there is no wisdom
Without loving in the present, there is no encounter

How

How do you know that you feel something
You´ve never felt before
As if you´ve been agited
Like one of those snow globes

How do you measure a feeling
Trying to suck all the joy
Out of every moment
That cannot be counted

How can you see somebody´s soul
And feel it so near
Without seeing reflected
A little piece of heaven

How do you know that your smile
Can change the life of someone
If you never open your eyes
To see them smile back

How do you know what is peace
If no one has ever made you feel
How all your fears fly away
Like butterflies

How do you make the correct choice
If you have never sensed
Bad filling you with emptiness
Because Good is walking away

How can you find yourself
Staring at the sunshine
If you never get lost
As you strife to avoiding the clouds

How will you be able to find your soulmate
If you don´t see the forest because of all the trees
And you, yourself, don´t show
That you want to be found

How can you fall in love
If you don´t let somebody in to fill your heart
To its width, length, and hight
Growing inside of you until there is no place for anyone else

How can we recognize the feeling of having had enough
If everytime we say goodbye
Our whole being is hurting
As we leave each other screaming for more

How will we ever achieve happiness
And see our dreams come true
If we don´t embrace the possibility
That our lives may never be the same again

How?

Here Lies a Woman

Here lies a woman that drowned in her thoughts
A thought was only deep enough
If you could suspect that those stars
That seemed to reflect on the surface
Were pieces of soul glimmering on the bottom

Here lies a woman that never slept
She thought she could escape the day
Falling in love with the night
It was never possible to live her dreams
Reality always stayed by her side

Here lies a woman that lived on her knees
So full of mistakes and errors
Pride, vanity, and self-righteousness
An endless fight to achieve humility
Prayer was the only way to survive herself

Here lies a woman that talked too much
She stood up for her rights and wrongs
Fought for her principles and opinions
Never sat down when she couldn´t stand up as a good example
Sorry to never have improved the silence

Here lies a woman that wasted her time
Victim of her fear of procrastination
Afraid to never be able to make it
Trying to always be busy
She was walking but felt like she wasn´t moving

Here lies a woman that strived for perfection
Trying to become someone else
Though figthting to always remain herself
She was meant to leave us with the message
That good is the enemy of best

Here lies a woman with a big and warm heart
Embracing every opportunity to serve
Every day her capacity to love grew bigger
Thanks to all those persons she loved
That never understood what they meant to her

Here lies a woman that smiled at life
Not because she was never sad
Never in despair or never discouraged
Living the Golden Rule is the only way
When you want life to smile back at you

Here lies a woman that opened doors
Built bridges and tore down walls
It was worth every strife and effort
And no road was never too long
The destination being the heart of a friend

Here lies a woman that never stopped searching
Questions without answers
Answers with no question
The only thing she end up finding
Were more reasons to not stop looking

Here lies a woman that was good enough
She was kind and generous
Tender, loving, and caring
Destined from the eternities
To live this life trying to make a difference

Here lies a woman that wanted more
Thirsty for rigteousness never achieved
She fought for her right to be special
She wouldn´t give in to conformity
Knowing it would take away her individuality

Here lies a woman that believed in love
In gentlemen and in unicorns
A world full of magic
As soon as we leave prejudice aside and decide
To live in it in peace with everybody else

Here lies a woman that was misunderstood
Left alone with her excentrities
Ideas, thoughts, and interests
Few people made an effort to get to know her
And see who she really was

Here lies a woman that thus never got to know
If she was loved and appreciated
If she meant the world to someone
She would have given her life for a hug
But Tomorrow arrived without her

Here lies a woman that was full of hope
But she won´t be lying here much longer
United with her hopes and dreams, now all fulfilled
Laughing, singing, and even dancing
She will be rising from forgotten to eternal life

Virtuous Woman

It´s born from the first broken habit
Enters in your life
Like the first ray of morning light
The door is left open for the thought
Without knowing it
You have been chosen
Heaven entire is crying
Be careful, virtuous woman
There´s a danger to your soul

You´re being noticed
Impressed and flattered
Scented, appreciated
And, you think, understood
Countless emotions escape from your dreams
As you talk for hours and hours
The only thing they don´t tell you
Is the only thing you need to hear
Be careful, virtuous woman
There´s a danger to your soul

One day you hopefully wake up
You wonder where you are
You wonder what is happening
Looking back you notice the stop signs
Notice the beauty of the curtains
But there is nothing in the room
Time stops breathing as you realize
Be careful, virtuous woman
There´s a danger to your soul

With your eyes now widely open
Your heart again facing the sun
Loving thoughts of truth and light
Tranquility and peace govern your mind
Enjoying the return of bliss
You look yourself in the mirror
Heaven´s reflected in your eyes
Be more careful,virtuous woman
There are many more dangers to your soul

My Last Song To You

At the very thought of you
My reason stops and stares
Unbutton my heart
It´s so full of you I´m drowning

Step into my web
Let me finish you
I promise you won´t feel less than me
Still you are important to me
So I might save you for later
When this feeling goes away

Like a photo caught by the wind
Let your senses guide you to me
I want you to know me
You´re the owner of my mind
Listen to me with your heart
Let me be your dance

Emotions don´t make sense
It´s too late, I´ve fallen again
Being in love with the feeling of being in love
Can color a whole world
A world that doesn´t die in the sunset

With me you´ll be finding
All your lost places
We´ll rediscover them together
If only for just one night

Out of a million scenes
There is still noone to touch
Just a song that describes
The space between you and me

It says you won´t need magic
To have my heart turn over
And reveal my only secret:
I can become yours so easily

Time Lost On You

You have abandoned me
Maybe not me
But you abandoned my emptiness
Things move on
Time changes
Where is the moment we needed the most

Sometimes we search for one thing
But discover another
Far from what we imagined
Every night the same star
The same wish
There is still no place in Heaven
For someone like me

Save me
Without you I´m not different
Even if there is no more light
With you than without you
I admit that with you
Close seemed more distant

Yesterday was empty
Tomorrow is just another day
Part of the history of the future
Yet life goes on and
The shadow of my shadow
Will continue with its labor
Picking up the pieces
Of the time I lost on you

A Kiss

Chained between
My feelings and my desires
Thorn between
What I do and what I should

To not be in a continual
State of horror
I´m normalizing the abnormal
Repressing the darkness in this light
Reaching for my inner bright
To not become who I am

In the end of the day
The sky is watching us
I am not perfect
I hope you don´t mind

It´s hard to try to become unbroken
Once you fly too close to
Something you thought was the sun
I don´t want to face this world alone
But your heart might be too small for me

Alone with these emotions
In the shape of a pillow
Still pretending to be who I am
I have only one thing to offer you
If you try to steal more than my heart

A kiss and no compromise
