Constant Limbo
Stuck in a constant limbo,
where love seems distant,
The tide always leads backwards
And the wind whispers in another direction.
And even if it sometimes seems like a yes...
It's just life screaming that NO.
I don't even say liquid.
The affection seems to me fog that disperses
in his most infamous transitority,
where everything fades with the wind,
lost in short time,
where nothing really is concrete,
Nothing's really right,
And nothing's real.
My steps find other pairs,
We see each other,
We connected,
But soon we lost our eyes.
It all starts between a yes and a maybe,
then become one yes and another yes,
Then the one that can't reach us again
And suddenly, there's just another end.

The "no" weighs and hurts,
It shatters and bleeds,
Even when it's me
who has to profess it.
I wanted you for every day,
I loved you in every word,
I was happy in every smile...
Until it can't be anymore.
Something screamed louder,
But love still whispers from afar.
My heart's pounding with longing
for a love that was brief,
which, for a while, was good, was light,
And that, despite everything, it was real.
It shatters and bleeds,
Even when it's me
who has to profess it.

Love is good
until it starts to hurt,
Until the silly smile turns to fear,
anguish...
and the desire for presence
Pulsar on one breast.
Until I want him to turn away,
Until certainty becomes doubt,
Until the "yes" becomes "maybe"
And until the "maybe" turns out not this time.
And it hurts, it squeezes, it bleeds...
It smothers like the air runs away.
How to Live in Uncertainty
And if you lose yourself in the pain,
until you desire deep
Never feel again
Love.

Don't Take Your Time
Life is too brief
to remain
In places that don't fit you,
Between looks that don't see you
and hugs
who run away from yours.
Make address
next to who does
Your heart smiles,
from whom you are sheltered,
who shows himself whole
and, above all,
who loves you.
Where there's no lap,
where tears
are more than the smiles,
where the laughter
Don't go with you,
But about you,
where there is loneliness
in the crowd...
Don't be long.

Details
It's in the details
I get lost,
It's in the details
I find myself.
In the detail that screams
Amid the deafening silence,
in the detail that tells secrets
Amid the smoke curtains
that they deceived the instant.
It's in the details that I see love,
in remnants of affection
And smile chips.
It's in the details that I see pain,
in the shrapnel of "no"
between the hugs that were lost.

Harmony
I appreciate the light and the deep,
the serene silence that shelters
a vertigo of feelings.
I tear up carefree smiles
And I collect your confidences:
The stories that shine
And the ones that weigh.
I'm a port.
I'm shelter,
But I also long for your lap
in the days of internal storm.
I celebrate the sun in its exuberance,
but charm me with the cold
when your heat suits me
And my presence shelters you
as an invisible gesture of care.
We drink to elegant tables,
But we also share laughter
on the hot and improvised asphalt
From some corner.
There is beauty in the silent harmony of contradictions,
and everything finds its just measure
when we inhabit the instant
with the right company.

I touch you without using my fingers,
While you see me
without looking at me...
