I dedicate these things to who I am

I dedicate these things to who I am;





A water fall and streams of tender beauty
emerging through the night, whisper's in silence
of rivers with naked hearts, 

Roses dancing with
the stars over their heads, and singing Rock
Bands with love songs,

A thousand chocolate kisses that melt
and turn to sweet hymns, and  little drops of heaven
more peace grows in my white footsteps,

Warm up a thousand
fur, fur that never stops caressing the night,
A nocturnal flower
waiting to be kissed,

I am the word Precious,
because precious cannot be ignored,

a placid lake and falling thin rain
bringing a gentle slow melody,
captivating each touch,

I am not these things
they just live in me.

Cry

Cry

He has the edge of me, the quill,
and the waves of prolong prose.
The hands move, they write with no
purpose but to disappear into death minds.

Meanings of grief
turning into dark stone, teardrop become
ice drops, reach the end, and break
into dry whispers of cry.

Bring me the autumn

Bring me the autumn




I remember you as you were in the
last autumn, The leaves adorned my
heart with your music. 

They were sounds
of your cadence voice that never left
the air like echoes in the wind, even
the birds sang like you. 

They had your tongue and throat, 
you were the artist
with no fame, your appearance your
voice were steady and calm.

They brought to me hymns and peace.
In your eyes the serenity of your soul
were like flames of light that never burned.


You were the white sheets of my bed,
always in peace and warm, The autumn
brought back your guitar your slow melody
like a breeze beneath my curtains,
and my house was then singing like
my heart.

You were so clever

You were so clever

You were so clever 

you diged into my world 

like ants looking for shelter,

I was empty like a tunnel,

You were vicious like a snake. 

Not while you needed 

my lips to quench your fire, 

I became vain in my desires,

When you weren't killing me 

you were charming, 

and when you were charming 

you were still a liar.

I never really knew you, 

you were silence with

many secrets hidden, and I was 

not with you.

I clinch to sadness and sadness 

so tenderly hold me back, 

I can smell the gardenia of 

your emptiness and it 

grabs my soul,

So sweet, yet so dead

with tears of pouring thin rain, 

they touched my bones 

and hurt me,

Beating my hopes, 

my words are more yours than mine, 

they climb up my body like flames

waiting for your return.

You are the blame for 

this cruel tone in my voice, 

before you, there was nothing 

but me, 

now you left a hole in me!

you hear me?

Ode to passion

Ode to passion



I say, too much passion in us poets, 
like a touch of a thousand
saccharine taste invading our veins, 
we cannot restrain, we
cannot condemned the only reason 
for our being, passion is what keeps us 
breathing, passion can make us see it all
different than others, not to cease, not to die
or give-up, passion grows in our soul, 
it reminds us it is there every minute of our day, 
when we need to count the hours
to get to him/her. 
Passion is the sedactive to our worst day.
The essential of reason, 
the way to a path, 
to rivers and streams that find our dreams, 
passion is a vessel making a net
reaching our heart our souls
keeping the beat louder and quieter in waves 
frequencies, passion is vigor, 
is a sparkle in our heart that continually 
beats violently and has no outcome.
Passion is un "Corazon salvaje".

The walls

The walls

Life, here in the surroundings of my white walls,

the walls that watch me while I pray, while I sing,

while I dance and work in my little room, while

I cry. These white walls they know my life, only

they cry with me, or sing or pray or dance, they give

my life the warm feelings of hands. 

The colors of my works the fabrics, the pen 

that move my hands, the architect of my bones, 

the father, the "I AM", they all live in me. 

Life, life is my big question! , life is the

I AM, and the I AM is life. 

I gather here in my room all of my works, 

the good, the bad and the worse,

they come alive with my help. 

Life in these white walls, pink I rather say;  

“I love pink!” 

My sink full of dishes waiting to 

be washed, the flowers on my table growing roots, 

the doors and windows always on guard, 

the lamps that never cease to give me light,

the sofa so exhausted of my exhausting body, 

the tree near my window poking at me, 

then the cry of a puppy I hear it all the time. 

My shop my objects they dream

and have their own mind, they wear the colors 

of life, they dress up and move my soul,

I love how they love me back.

The waving

New 

The waving

I’m here , you are there,  

a vessel  waving in our veins,

the hours  that count my significant 

life, the constant image of  thee, 

you! you are the title of my book,

of my memento, how I seek 

thee in the little things I see

your  face  there in the body 

of a grasshopper, a  butterfly, 

a nectar flower,  any where 

I look I see the endless of your  

profound eyes, in the landscape 

of my deserted life.

Where do you go and where do I look,

it is not that I worship thee 

but  that I need to live. 

I’m dressed with the vision 

of the bride to be in vain,

who  told me I was his , 

I can lie all I want,

I can pretend all I want, 

"why are you so vivid"?

I know is all  an illusion, 

theres nothing real there.

You are gone and I am here 

trying to dismiss the fact

of your cruelness, the smell 

of your last day in my true,

in my illusion, the fantasy 

I created to replace the

pain that follows my aching body.
