Your Sword

Pieces of life, inside a heart
Mirrors of someone that one day I found
Tired and sad in the middle of the crowd
But with a simplicity that I’ve never seen around.
Far away, I heard his sadness
In his heart, the craving of winning was a thing
Hurt by others and by his harshness
Raising high his strength like a King
His will was glimmering far way
Fight for a different and sincere world
Where only the truth could remain
In the heart of those who felt empty and hurled.
Asked me for silence, in order to listen to his footprints
To free his own pain and sorrow
And rest all his tiredness
To meet himself and meditate, morrow
Not because the feeling has disappeared
But because he need to drink the light
Understand every suffer he went through
And give another blaze to his cross sight
Looked to the sea and the first sunrise
Lay down to begin his introspection with the Lord
Took off his knights clothes
And fall asleep near his sword….
And when everyone though he was giving up
Cross his arms, and stopping fight
He rose fearless from the floor
Full of strength to destroy darkness with his light
This was his glorious fate
(Never accept he was defeated)
Walking always side by side
With his dream, that was never forgotten, but completed!

Talking with my angel

Yesterday, with my angel, about you I talked
About your pain, your love, your missing
Seconds, that I made mistakes
And those who last for kissing

Yesterday, a thousand tears I’ve cried
Embraced to this fantasy without aim
And for moments of anxiety I tried
Hearing your voice calling my name

“No!” – whispered my angel
“Go on following the way
That is inside your heart, without some vision”

“Stop lying to yourself
Stop running away
‘cause happiness is much more than reason.”

Courage

I looked to your empty heart
And my image was reflected there
Like we were in a painting art
But each one with his own despair

I wanted to touch your pain with my hand
And relieve your suffering emotions
But I didn’t have courage to enter your land
Because of the length of your oceans

Today, I’m sad and I’m blaming
How can I have changed my world aiming
With my fears and my sadness?

Now I wait another opportunity
To go on living with my own unity
That drives me to the land of happiness

Zenith

“It’s hard to understand others”, I thought
Words that echoed in my empty spaces
Emptiness of my mind will brought
Tired words that were lost, without bases

I don’t know if they are true or not
I simply draw them in all my places
Since the day I was taught
That each one has at least two faces

Hard words that drive illusion
And makes my heart a delusion
To my very last limit

The scream of rage is lost in the night
Like it was a brilliant light
That throws me along to my zenith

Sunset

I see footprints in the sand, where I lay
As the tears roll down on my face
The sunset seems like an odyssey
That covers in silence my state of grace

I run away from my life, and I pray
To the Lord of time, my base
To bring me all the answers and stay
With me, for a while, just in case

The moon sees and contemplates all that I suffer
This anguish of so much wanting and buffer
While the waves were reminiscing

I saw me laying alone in the floor
Blowing my thoughts against the door
In order to forget this terrible missing

Sometimes

Staying here, and looking at the sea
Trying to find several words in vain
Words that are buried within me
But still grow in all my tears again

Pain is my muse. Yes, I agree
The dark side of my refrain
The long arms of my old past tree
My body, my soul and my spirit in the rain

I can’t find a way to feel my feelings
I can’t find a way to heal my healings
I can’t find for my ode the right rhymes

I close my eyes to be inspired
I feel my inside breath so tired
When I cross my arms to the world, sometimes

Rest in peace

Oh God! How it hurts... when you call someone
And she was so kind, beautiful and young
She had lots of plans, a whole life undone
When death came as a trap sprung...

Oh God! She was brave until the end of this run
Waiting the short path, where she will not be hung
When the Lord of Destiny arrives and claims he’s won
Taking her to a place where music will be forever sung...

I miss her, and my soul is crying
Words of memories are now flying
All over the universe, with one kiss

I pray to you to guide her
While she is ridding a horse without spur
To reach Paradise, and rest in peace!

Tell me why

Tell me why I can’t see the light
When everything is dark around me
When everything seems to fade away
And struggle all my simple liberty

Tell me why I can’t smell the flowers
Of my garden with happiness
Laying with the beauty of their colours
In a place where they don’t look like homeless

Tell me why I can’t taste the flavour
Of the moonlight when it’s too late
When the sky buries the old stars
That stopped shining above my fate

Tell me why I can’t hear the laughs
Of the children playing around
Games without rules and frontiers
Music’s from hearts plenty of sound

Tell me why I can’t feel my heart beating
When I say I love you so
When I whisper words of hope
Knowing that I need to let you go

Tell me why I can’t touch the sky
Free my wings and fly
Forget the limits of my existence
And stop looking for the answers to my why

Give me back

Do you know how I feel inside?
Collecting all the words around the globe
While I’m sitting here seeing the turn of the tide

Rainbows come and go inside my dreams
Trying to take from me a real smile
A smile that can dry all my deep tears
And fulfil with my heart for a while

But my thoughts are escaping now
And the music of lies are still playing
Hymns of victory from the battle of life
Blinding every power of the yang and ying

I stop thinking about the road I’m travelling on
And I wonder when the sun will arise
To clean my “house” from fears and doubts
And give me back the strength to reach Paradise

Stairs of the time

There once was a kingdom covered with snow
And in the winter field nothing could grow
While the king was calling for the warm spring
Waiting, with hope, for what tomorrow could bring

The rivers of life couldn’t ever flow
And the wind, of this proud land ever blow
Without the sound of the bells ringing
As they used to… without stinging

The fear was there in his eyes
And a strange feeling emerged until he dies
As it was praying to the clime….

The road was too hard to understand
Even if he could no longer stand
To climb the stairs of the time

Tears in secret

If I ponder about another past
Where I laughed, sand and I was dear
It seems it was a time ago so vast
It seems it was somewhere else but not here.

And my voice cried out no words to last
Yesterday and tomorrow have no fear
Diminished, the line of fate to cast
And fall abandoned, a victim of jeer

I stay thinking, looking in vain
To my inner lake fulfilled with pain
Longing to be carried out to the sea

And the tears that I cry, white and calm
No one sees them springing as my psalm
No one sees them falling inside me

Loose words…empty promises

Loose words and daydreams in the air
changed and interlaced feelings
passion springs from everywhere to nowhere
dark paths, in a full moon, plenty of meanings.

Empty promises, fears and care
About pain, suffering and nostalgia dealings
Remaining only the last stair
To climb your bleeding heart without healings.

Loose words… empty promises
Covering the aim of what one misses
Blinding all my sweet liberty

Sail away across the ocean
Tears dropping with emotion
Along this road to Eternity

The lesson

Carrying alone this heavy fight
Battles of fears, dreams and desires to face
At the arena lays, an old knight
Tired of being apart from his own place

He has lost his princess of the light
Cause his heart was blinded with the spade’s ace
Forgetting that his soul could only be bright
If he deeply believes in his inner amazing grace

And now there he is, embracing his tears
Rolling down on his fears
Trying to forget this torment

He crosses his arms to the world around
Avoiding any noise or any sound
In order to learn the lesson of this moment

Inspiration

We fly together!
Your smile with so many roads inside
The secret rumors of your veins
Opening ruts with deep words
In the face of the unexpected night
It lacks, above all, around your eyes
The pure resonance of joy
I remember one night
When we stay naked
To rock a kiss or a tear
Fighting with cross-cut hands
Until the breaking of the day
Large, intact at the wet eyelid of the lilies
And that is your real face
The face that I’m going to join
To your portrait
Like when I was a little girl
Cutting here, sticking there
Until the fountain tears your mouth
And the night stays
Water overflowing…..

A poem for you

When you follow a path in your life
And discouragement comes
When you give a smile
And, as an answer you receive disdain
When you’ll be stabbed by a friend
And alone, you’ll be suffering in silence
When love springs out from your soul
For the sad and poor wretches
And, with courage, gives you a slap
When your tears drops in catadupe
And leave in your face furrows
When you feel hate around you,
Cowardice, despair and humiliations
When your heart will be only scars
And have nothing to give
So…
“Take the last pieces of your raw flesh soul
and make with them a patchwork-quilt, to lodge
a poor man, even more poor than you”

I’m with you

When you climb smiling
The rude scarp of life
And the glory of the triumph inebriates you
I’m with you
Jubilantly sharing
The radiant sun of happiness
When you descend, and go back
When you lose, when you cry
Smashed by the failure and disillusion
I’m with you
Sweetly drying your tears
And tenderly giving my hand
When you fall worn-out
With the weight of anguish, tiredness and weakness
I’m with you
Lighting your abyss
Of gloom and sadness
When you walk exhausted
Without hope, light and love
Without anything or anyone
Look back and see (beside you)
That I’m with you
Walking, suffering and crying too!

Time…. Is on my side

When I’m with you, I want to stop the time
It’s like wishing to hear the echo of a sentiment
And make it last forever in my rhyme
Talking, thinking, and smile without intent

When you go away, you leave the grime
Of my body and soul in lament
With a feeling of a lost and dark sublime
Shades of moments of a past that we spent

No, this is not a daydream, it’s a feeling!
That longs for a strong healing
To drive me to eternity

No, this is not a passion, it’s a crossroad!
Of ideas and wishes in an ode
That hides a deep complicity

Innocent sleep

I look at you my little son
And I see in your eyes a simple keeping
And your small heart I feel beating
Like no one else could have ever done

I softly touch your face like no one
To let you go on sleeping
With an eternal soft kissing
In your life, as the rise sun

It’s immense this universe
And I can’t sing it in a verse
Though I could trade its essence

Close your eyes so gentle
Rest like an angel along your developmental
With a soft breeze of innocence!

Don’t give up

In the middle of the bridge I was thinking
Thinking about a way to set me free
Glancing to the world that is stinking
With words that grows like a cancer tree

The river, invited me to start the linking
Through the open paradise below the sea
Chains and manacles dazzled my blinking
Forcing me to be on my own knee

“Don’t give up” – I heard a whispered voice
But how, if I had no other choice
At this world where I feel exhaust

And the miracle of hope started growing
And above the sky an Angel was showing
The path to the place that I thought was lost

No one!

Walking from one side to another
In an eternal bewildered dance
As it seems my cruel fate further
Looking for a safety and secure chance

At night, closing my wings to the other
Smiling to the sky to enhance
As I was looking for druthers
In a sad and distant glance

Staring at the immensity of the sea
Dreaming about what I wanted to be
Mixed with the burning rain and the cold sun

As if my soul embraced this cause
In some way it was
Looking for no one!

Immaculate

Warrior of life I wanted to be
Fighter of one pure and secret ideal
The world gave me the old lost key
Of the power of winning and reveal

Being a bird that flies over the sea
Far away from this life unreal
And never come back to see
What he left behind as a squeal

Fight always I wanted so much
Reach the sky, and a bright star touch
At the final of this dark Crusade

Fall asleep embracing these deep dreams
Smile to my tears flowing in distant streams
Like the virgin immaculate!

Tenderness

A long, long time ago I dressed my being
With small remnants of tenderness
To offer one day, without thinking
To a strange and lost homeless

Time has flown and the echo was singing
From the bottom of all this sadness
Cruel words fulfilled with a reading
That throws me away to this loneliness

So, I took this old mantle
And I touched it so gentle
To cover all my intense pain

I felt so deeply warm
In spite of all the storm
Wrapped around with a counterpane

Miracle of Love

And there he was laying in his dreams
Trying to get a ride in what future brings
Thinking about everything or nothing, as it seems
And free what the voice inside him stings

And there he was whispering each word in streams
While he was flying on a winged horse without strings
Holding all struggled moments in his screams
And throwing away, around the Universe, lost wings

While he was dreaming at that very night
A wild bright and shining light
Emerged in the sky above

And he saw the Angel Cherubim
Carrying the hand of Seraphim
Playing together, the melody of the Miracle of Love!

Proof of love

In silence, you cry over a love that is broken
Hiding tight your beautiful smile
In an appalled moonlight rather hostile
Still believing in words, misspoken

In silence, you remember a time unspoken
With words that are chains within your mood style
And couldn’t be forgotten, even for a while
By someone, that brings a hope as a token

No! You can’t go on vegetating
And your fears procrastinating
In a trap of rational reasons from above

No! You can’t think about a time that has no place
Or a day, that has no space
If you don’t display… your little big proof of love!

To the one… who loves me

At the weeping of my pain I dilacerate
Slowly… only pieces of myself last
Nothings else I hide, nothing else I wait
But broken wings that died in the past

Alone, at this ascetic world of fate
I loved… without a signal to blast
All my imprison feelings with a gate
Wanting to be relieved, so fast

And I thought I could reborn
Overcome this terrifying storm
And set these marks free

I protected myself without knowing
That I was just throwing
away… the one who loves me!

Words for what?

I looked into your deep blue eyes
And I saw your soul shining through
But inside you, the rainbow of a life rises
Bright colours with stars in blue

The sound of your tear climes
To the lost paradise in black and white, too
Trying to reach a path free of lies
When you don’t know what to do

You keep on swimming in celestial oceans
Closing tight your own emotions
Trying to find a safe spot

Feelings are more than you can say
Words come, go and never stay
So... all these words for what?

City without doors

Hope we can dance below the next full moon
Share clearly the feelings of our hearts
Hope we can feel our breaths soon
And reunite all our broken and lost parts

Body, soul and spirit will boon
With desires, dreams in shades of arts
Painting whispers, that will make us swoon
At secrets we share in our life charts

I’m looking for a place to set us free
Where we can live, laugh and see
Things that everyone ignores…

A place where no one never knows
If the sun is shining or the wind blows
Nothing more, than a city without doors..

Shadows on the road…

I see blue skies in every places the wind blows
And I whisper, with it, soft words to every stars
Walking in silence, on trails, that no one knows
Where I can hear the music of lost and sad guitars…

I pray for rainy nights to water my deep rows
Cause I don’t want seeds or roots in all my scars
That are still screaming out and loud for glows
In the dark inviting moon, without mars

I sit down at the corner of the storm
Trying to keep my conscious warm
And find out a line for my ode

I realize a silent day light
In this dangerous fight
Against those shadows on the road…

Moments

There are nights where the stars forget to shine
And the Zephyr blows into my heart, still cold
Crossing in my path beneath the horizon line
Every dark shadow without words to unfold

There are days where the sun is so divine
And the warmth of desires gleams like gold
Mixing colours in my world as an abstract design
Like a new born rainbow, but inside so old

There are nights… that I kiss my tears
Trying to forget all my shears
And all my deep torments

There are days… that I can’t cover my smile
My happiness and hope, for a while
To never forget that both, are only moments

Broken Heart… with tears

I cry, because I feel better this way
And I want to relieve myself in vain…
I cry, because I want my spirit away
And emptying my heart from the pain…

I cry, because I can no longer pray
Without singing my painful refrain…
I cry, because I don’t know how to say
Wisdom words like my Angel used to contain

Broken pieces of lost tears I’m keeping
Step by step when I’m still sleeping
In the corner of the Universe where I spread

And to them I will add all my last memories
Cutting stars and make up sceneries
Of the day, when I will finally be dead

Alienation

I wanted a distant place to relieve my pain
Where I couldn’t feel anything, even hope
Where I could forever and ever remain
With my strong feelings to dope…

I run away from the world and its rain
From all memories that I couldn’t cope
Only small fragments of the sad moments came
To strike my heart and soul with mope

And it comes after me, day after day
Reminding me that the scope where I lay
Is the painful price for a self

I finally found in this internal journey
That the sad root of life’s tourney
Is not being possible to be alienated from myself

Lost & Found … In tones of blue!

Once I was lost, inside my heart
Trying to let my memories blow
As a river crosses in a painting art
With plenty of old sad tears to throw…

Now, I found the aim of that start
That was covered with soft cold snow
Keeping all my deep feelings apart
From myself…. so many years ago

Embracing all my own fears
I’ll dry all my lost tears
To a time that never came true

Reaching the stars, one day
I will find my soul and pray
To never forget the sky … in tones of blue

Tears of a time

These tears that claim to drop
Are tears of a sweet suffering
In a quiet horizon of a feeling crop
Felt in a time that make them die... buffering

Those are the tears the time will bring
Or come from a time that did stop
Among seconds without sing
Or in a sunk haze of the dawn slop

They are just …. simple tears
Hiding in a space with my fears
Where I look for my blindness

They are tears that drop from a fountain
Drawing my dreams in a high mountain
In the street of my own darkness

Missing you

Shades of thoughts come since you went away
When you slightly closed the life door
Forcing me to shut my heart since that day
And feel again this sorrow like I’ve never did before

Shadows of your words come day after day
Reminding me those tears and much more
Leading me to the bottom of my bay
When I’m prone here… alone on this cold floor

I just close my eyes to understand
The deep pain I have to stand
And the darkness that my soul is going through

I just try to pretend I’m a real poet
That needs to drop lines in a suffering sonnet
To shout to the wind how I miss you!!

Dressed in blue

When i close my eyes, day after day
your face remains in my mind
although we are oceans away
my heart... is not so blind

You know where is your way
and what you're going to find
seconds, minutes, hours of a journey
keeping your past... far behind

Opening every door of Liberty
feeding, with hope, that soft reality
of finding your one soul mate...

Your dreams are dressed in blue
believing that they will come true
and hoping not to be a lie .... of fate!

To my Friend Jen…

Who are you that hide your own sorrow
And silence your deep suffering
Concealing from others the arrow
Of the chorus of the words you sing?

Who are you that leave your beauty for tomorrow
Closing yourself to what the future might bring
Living these days we borrow
That keeps your rebirth buffering?

Why don't you open your heart,
Your feelings to a brand new start
And cover your past with a stone?

Why don't you free your soul,
Draw into your life another goal
Since you're not, at this world, alone!

If I die, tomorrow

If I die tomorrow, the wind I will unmask
To whisper you a smile in the daylight
And show you which is your real task
Even if I’m not here to delight

If I die tomorrow, the rain I will ask
To cover the sadness of your sight
From the silent tears of your face damask
Hiding your pain at this place and fight…

I will make that the smell of every flower
Could fulfil your heart, every hour
And guide your loss to liberty…

I will pray that one day
Your nostalgia could fade away
And with me, you could walk through eternity….

Clock of time

The horizons where I’m laying
Are so hard, so hard to see
Tight the memory of loud saying
Lost words, in the wind, to set you free

My thoughts of hope are escaping
Like emptiness in harmony
The music of the past love is still playing
When I need someone to comfort me…

Where are you, my broken wing
Where is the music you used to sing
To relieve this awful sign?

Come and kiss me at night
Touch my spirit with your light
And stop…. the clock of time!

Pain is a gun.....

Pain is the schedule of my tears
Trap of all my inner feeling
Coast of my soul wrap with fears
Wrapping fate away for sealing....

I lay down beneath the shears
Looking for my essence that has been stealing
That has been lost as the fire sears
Keeping me apart and reeling

This is my sorrow
Yesterday, today and tomorrow...
It has been my muse

This is my destiny
The pieces that rest in me
When pain is a gun that I learn to use!

Maybe Tomorrow

Drop the poem of life again
Into shields of wisdom in a fight
Feelings will vanish in the rain
As will fall in the silence of the night

Darkness is where I left my pain
Beneath the wings of the moonlight
Where silent voices claim
For being out of the universe sight

Breathe, and let me breathe, once more
While I close forever that door
That makes me feel so apart…

Whisper, and let me whisper words of sorrow
Believing that maybe tomorrow
Will bring the brightness to my heart…

The sound of my tears…

The silent sound of my tears
Dropping, one by one, inside me
Builds a strange scenery of old fears
A door without any key

Blind, my innocence with fire sears
Steal the last faith from my “be”
Drive my wings along my shears
Clean the fantasy to set me free

Just want to close my eyes, again
Think, with sadness, about the pain
And whisper to Eternity

Words of a spirit that has lost the wisdom
Of living and dying in its closed tome
Believing one day…. would be open itself to see!

Screams of the soul

Screams of my soul in pain
Screams of suffering and lost feelings
Empty shadows in the moonlight vain
Broken hearts … without dealings…

My God! What have I done again
Believing I could fly without wings
Unexpecting that the dark and cold rain
Could bring the colour to my healings…

No! I only beg my pain and sorrow
To leave me until tomorrow
And don’t let my dreams fall

I bury my head in the sand
Like a sword spit into the land
To free the echo of the screams of my soul!

Shadows in Paradise

Show me a way…. Show me a way
And tell me why we have to be apart
I need you in a bright sunshine day
I need you here… close to my heart!

You look at my eyes begging to stay
But I just close them and wait your depart
And in the silence of the night I try to say
That your distance…. It’s only a brand new start

Open my arms to the sky
Wanted for minutes, to fall and die
To see the beauty of the sunrise…

Look for you in all my dreams
Look for something that gleams
Like shadows in paradise….

Home

Looking at you as I do
Reminds me a melody, a song
That you’ll recognize it too
Because it’s sounds it’s so strong…

It keeps calling us to go through…
Lead us to a place where we belong
A magic world waiting to be reach to
Even “they” think we’re wrong….

Found yourself in the corner of the world
Driving to nowhere, in the middle of the road
Trying to find your own way…

Found myself back to eternity
Trying to breathe the liberty
Of … giving it all away ….

Tales of passion

Tales of passion never ends
Stories of love… to set you free
Broken pieces…. And lost friends…
Dreams that no one can ever see!

Walk alone with my feet on the sands
Following the shadows of the old past tree
Believing that you can reach other lands
Distant places, where you can only be!

I look up the stars and the sky above
Its shinning on me the pain of a lost love
The pain of my soul, only…

Close my eyes to feel the night
Breath the wind to see the light
And to forget that I’m so lonely!!!

Shades of the self

Thoughts begun at the end of the day
Secrets and fears flying over my head
All the promises and the lies you’ve said
Come to my mind… everyday!

I have closed the book since May
With fragments of a soul I’ve never had
Tears of mine were so lost and sad
In a Paradise… that just fades away!

I keep all the dreams of this past time
Hoping soon they would be mine
And free myself … wherever!

My soul hides my inner pain
But… would you ask me, once again
“who wants to live forever”?!

Je pense à toi

Malgré le fait que les jours passent...
C'est vrai, tu m'as plu dès le premier instant
Tu as provoqué en moi un tel chavirement...
Lorsque mon regard a croisé le tien...

Je pense à toi encore plus souvent
Personne avant toi, en avait fait autant...
Peu importe les obstacles qui nous en empêchent...
Je pense à toi en t'attendant...

Malgré le temps qui nous sépare...
Malgré l'inconnu et la peur qu'il engendre...
Je pense à toi, à te plaire, à t'aimer

Malgré des mots, les mêmes mots
Des mots magiques, des mots tactiques qui sonnent faux
Je pense à toi et jamais je ne t'oublierai!

I’ll do my crying in the rain

Impossible dreams make me fly
Away from this cloudy night
That burns inside me as a deep lie
And leave my heart, without a light.

No matter how much I cry
Or if I have or not the right
To let my soul alone and die
At this very strange fight.

I’ll do my crying in the rain
Trying to hide my sorrow and pain
Missing you, more than words can say

Life is not what you really see
I’m not anymore what I used to be
And I’m not sure if I'll be back someday.
