Love And Time

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said, "Richness, can you take me with you?"Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!""I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you.""Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her. Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?""It was Time," Knowledge answered."Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is

Sometimes

Sometimes we wonder if we..re on the right path; If we..re making the right choices; If we..re living our lives the fullest.
Sometimes we cry when there..s no reason to cry; We laugh and we don..t even know why we..re laughing
Sometimes we beg and we lose our self-respect; We fight and we find ourselves trapped - in an insoluable situation
Sometimes we love, sometimes we hate; Sometimes we pray, sometimes we fake
Sometimes we get too emotional and we end up causing trouble, irreversible mistakes that leaves a mark to our fate;
Sometimes we fall in love, sometimes we feel disturbed; Sometimes we make this work, Sometimes we make them worse
Sometimes we wanna hide, sometimes we wanna lie; Sometimes we wanna live, Sometimes we wanna die.
But most of the time, shall remember we..re all human beings and we have to let go of certain things;
Things that bring us down, making us frown;
Most of the time we must do our best, and never fret;
Live our lives the way we want to and never regret; the choices we make, cause we must make them for ourselves;
Most of the time we shall not be afraid to love, cause if we fear that, we..ll never get love in return

Guys In The Closet (Saturday Morning Hung Over Tale)

I can..t remember what is it but i did something last night really odd; mmmm well i went to a bar with some friends of mine, i remember alcohol, lots of it...i also remember a guy hitting on me, i remember it was rainning, oh i also remember my shoes were all soaking wet.
There..s something really bothering me that happened last night that i am trying to remember...i got home, that i remember, i checked if the windows were closed, put my shoes behing the refrigerator so they could dry up yes, i remember that.
There..s something else missing here...i made a sandwich, ham and cheese sandwich, yes i remember it tasted really good, i drank a whole bottle of water that i remember well, i took a shower and i remember that cause i was too dirty, kinda had mud all over my body and hands that i remember
Whatelse...? The guy hitting on me at the bar...i remember inviting him to my house, yes i remember him saying yes. I remember us having more drinks when we got home i can remember when he started to make out on my couch that i can REALLY remember well
After that something else happened...Oh, we went to my room and we got naked, i remember that pretty clearly...we had sex oh that was so awesome i guess if i close my eyes i can even remember what that felt like. I remember him putting his clothes .. the sex, i do remember that horrible green jacket of his
Then, something kinda unusual happened but i can..t quite remember what it is...he told me how great i was and asked if he could pick up a glass of water before he left and i said yes, i remember saying yes.
In the kitchen something happened but i cant quite remember...oh, i remember something...after the glass of water he threw a 20 dollar bill at me and said that he..d call if he needed some more action i rememer that i sure do
I got mad, i got very mad, my head started to ache, it was bad, really bad, that i remember well, i suddenly had a bad headache and i remember there was a knife, a big one yes there was definetelly a knife there.
I took that knife and i remember him coming towards me and i remember the knife getting inside his stomache, i remember something warm running through my hands, i can remember something red funny coming out of his mouth, i remember myself laughng yes i do, i remember thinking he waas a magician i can remember that
Oh now everything..s clear in my head, i remember him lying down on the floor so cute sleeping, i remember how he looked so peaceful and calm, i remember thinking how drunk he must be to sleep on that floor and all dirty covered with the same mud i had on me and my hands,
I remember me dragging him and putting him in my closet to make him feel more comfortable, yes, i remember he felt so much better when i did that, i remember thinking how nice i was. Oh, then i went to the kitchen, made the sandwich, took the shower, went to bed and finally slept
Today....what day is today? I cant quite remember...oh it..s Saturday, it must be cause yesterday was Friday, i remember that. So where is the guy? Is he still sleeping? I cant remember if he woke up and said goodbye...let me check in the closet...Yes, he..s still sleeping, and he looks so funny, kinda looking blue and stiff he..s probably too hung over i..m just gonna let him sleep for a couple of hours some more. Wow, i had such an awesome Friday i just don..t remember why all the guys like to sleep inside my closet for so many days, oh i see, they are probably homeless people, poor guys...well, there..s 7 of them inside my closet right now, i am sure they will keep each other company. Gotta go now, it..s Saturday night and i wanna meet some new guys.

Very Soul Of Mine

Bending over you, whispering to your ears
All the kind of words you..ve always wanted to hear
Not all of them are true but i don..t wanna see you blue
I do the best i can to make you feel my man
The one and only one i will ever love
But then you say back off and tell me just to stop
My heart just feels in pain thinking it was all in vain
You say you need some time and then i realize
What if it..s not meant to be and i just didn..t wanna see
That you are just not ready for us to go steady
I try to hide my tears and not show my fear
Fear of being alone i just try to be strong
I respect your decision and i..ll leave but please just listen
I will always be all yours and my fingers now i cross
To my heart i must be true and i only think of you
When you..re ready let me know if you..re not please just go
But only say you love me too when in your heart you feel it..s true
I believe in fate and hope and with that i can now cope
With the fact that may never be again a you and me
But the memories remain of the beautiful days that you made me feel a better man
And for that i don..t regret it..ll be part of my past
Words, images and a shoulder one day i was able to cry on, and a person i could rely on
That can..t be taken away from me, the memories of thee
A face i will never forget and that will always live within
The very soul of mine until the day i die

The Last Bus - A Horror Tale

Nancy knew she was late, every minute that passed by she regreted being on a date without the concern of her parents. The bus stop was empty, on the streets she could hear nothing but the sound of her own heavy breathing. She had never seen Phoenix the way she was seeing it before.
The clock was marking 01:17am, she was terrified, out of the blue she felt the hair in her arms stand up, a cold breeze was running through her long brown hairs she knew she had probably missed the last bus but she still had a small hope that suddenly a bus might stop and she..d be safe. Footsteps, she looks around and sees noone - it..s getting closer to her but she still can..t see a single soul approaching her.
Through the mist ahead of her she sees a man, a tall man wearing a funny old hat and a big overcoat. She freaks out and decides to half-smile at him so he might realize she wasn..t afraid. The man smiles back at her. She asks if he knows what time it is and he smiles and tells her his watch stopped working a long time ago. She frowns and decides to ignore him. Nancy hated Phoenix, she was from New York she wasn..t used to a desert place like that at 1am in the morning of a Friday. She lits up a cigarette and offers the old man one. he says no with his head, smiling. Tired of waiting forever the young gitl decides to walk back home. As she turns around the old man tells her he wouldn..t do that if he was her. She asks why and he just smiles.
Nancy ignores the old man and keeps walking. Her breathing is getting heavier as she walks faster and faster. She looks up to the skies when she notices some funny and curious, to say the least, lights that seem to be following her. The girl ignores the lights when suddenly a huge ray of light falls down right in front of her like a cosmic waterfall. Nancy is amazed, she can..t move one single muscle, she tries but she just can..t, like if something bigger and stronger than her were in control of her whole body.
She hears a voice asking her if she wants to come with them. Nancy starts to cry, her lips move gently, softly and she..s able to pronounce a barelly unlistenable but convincent no. In a blink of an eye she notices that the lights were gone. Nancy desperatelly runs back to the bus stop and the old man is still there. Crying she tells him what happened and she gets one "i told you so" back. The man still smiling asks her where she was and she tells him:
- I was in a car near by the cliff with my boyfriend Juan, my parents didn..t know i had a date they thought i was at my friends..s house and then i don..t know what happened but my boyfriend just dumped me and i had to walk all the way here to this bus stop but i guess i missed the last bus.
The old man replies
- Is that what happened? hmmmm i can garantee you that you are much better here now, look at the street, there..s only the two of us here. Doesn..t that give you a sense of freedom, the sense that you could just start to fly without worries, without wondering what your folks are gonna say?
Nancy interrupts him
- What are you talking about? Are you crazy? Fly? Not worry? I just wanna get the hell outta here, all i wanted was to take the goddamn last bus.
Old Man
- Nancy my child, you just missed your last bus
Nancy
-What?
Old Man
- Well, you saw the lights didn..t you? Didn..t you choose to stay? This is your home now my darling, didn..t you feel how flying feels after your boyfriend threw you off that cliff ? - he laughs - You made your choice Nancy, you could have gone into the light, the shiny beautiful light but instead you came running back to me - louder laughter - now you and i belong together and when MY last bus arrive you and i are going to have one hell of a ride back home, my home, your home now, our home Nancy child.
Nancy vagally, slowly starts to remember that she was kissing her boyfriend Juan when she felt like a big push and suddenly she was fliying and whe she got her conscience back she was in the street looking for the bus stop, hoping to get the last bus, the last bus home, the last bus to her own home, her down on earth home. From now on Nancy knows she is doomed, she made her choice, she stayed. She can feel the warm tears rolling down her eyes as she sits right next the old man. He hands her his overcoat when she sees another light, now a dark one, a very dark one coming towards her and the old man, she closes her eyes and deeply sighs as she hears a huge disturbing noise
The old man says
- Waiting is over my child, our last bus is finally here

Must The Show Go On?

I open the curtains of the past
I do see anger and regret
Words spoken oh so fast
Hopes i knew wouldn..t last
Now i sit and contemplate
The view outside and think of fate
Was it all just meant to be like that?
Or should i say it was all my bad?
The sun is burning my face
While all my hidden feelings come to surface
There..s a light breeze running through my hair
Just like the time when i used to make you smile now i feel glad
Of all the things i have accomplished in life
Nothing will ever compare to the sound of your words all so kind
The wind now is blowing hard
I look at my neeples, i start rubbing my arms
The view is still beautiful and now i..m flying
It all runs so fast in my mind i just feel like crying
The past now must stay put, time to close up the curtains
Here i come to land my body, on the ground, there..s no more flying
The past now will be buried with me but with a smile here i lay down, looking at the window while the curtains dance as the wind blows now
No more flying, no more past, memories that were all so vivid in HD now can rest in peace and the worries that i leave behind i can finally let them be
Good night, love and peace, the curtains are down now, my show is over indeed.

Shade Of Your Being

I look deep into your eyes
My lips move but words are unspoken
I try to talk and express how i feel
But yet i..m afraid to have my heart broken
For such a long time i..ve been in this searching
Looking for someone with eyes like yours
Craving to put an end to my huntng
Hunting after you, an undiscovered you
An undefined you, but i had no clue
I looked ahead and i looked back
I was egger for someone with that smile
I giggle, i turn red
I feel silly and then i laugh
I..ve always heard your sweet and firm voice
Even before we met
We shake hands, my legs shiver
You hug me i smell your hair
We talk about our day
And together we always have a blast
The unexistent being now has a shape
Now he even has a name
And it..s a great one by the way
I feel something up my spine
My soul is now in flames
I must step out of the line
Cause i..m sick of all those games
No more tears, i will not cry
Now i have someone of mine
Words are finally coming out
No more reason i should frown
Cause with you now i can be
For as long as you let me
I will love you with all my heart
Til death do us part
Then i..ll meet you on the other side
So a new life we can start
Together forever, side by side
