A Stone Heart Never Dies

Dear Charlotte 
Don't play games with my heart
For mine is half stone 
As a snail wrecked on the beach 
Full of sand that is slightly 
Petrifying inside itself 

At least this heart is
Cuddled by waves 
Till it is eventually thrown between 
Some big stones and 
Stays still there 
Just for nothing
Out of nothing 

May you imagine that after
Few hundreds of years 
I child will most likely find
A little piece of this 
Cemented broken snail 
Have a look at and
Throw it back into the waters 
Out of nothing but 
A bit of curiosity how and 
If the waves will ever bring it back
Among the billions of tiny golden 
Granulated relics of once upon a time 
Petrifying hearts 

A stone heart never dies

La Cancion De Los Guerrillas

Señor Che, ¿duerme?
No, Paco. Pero dime que pasa
O, Dios... Nada! 
Pasa que pasa, compañero. Habla! 
Cuenta el dolor que cada 
El dia pasada lo pone en las noches 
Habla...
Señor, tengo un sueño en mi almohada 
Pero un sueño tan estraño 
Porque mi almohada 
Es llena con el cuarzo 
De la arena fina 
De Orthents de Sierra Nevada

Vamos a comer nuestras bocas
Vamos a beber el agua de las estrellas 
Vamos a mendigar en la Vía Láctea
Vamos a dormir por siempre
Da igual 
Tuve un sueño estraño 
Ya no lo se si es de buena suerte
U mal 

Cry, baby, cry
For both of us know the reason why 
Cry, baby, cry
Cause I'm coming 
Oh, yes, I'm coming 
I'm coming to you
I'll be back home tonight 

No hay ni mar ni rio 
No hay ningun océano
No hay nada de nada 
Solo la arena en mi almohada 
Mi padron, por favor, reza al Dios
Pasa que pasa, pero, amigos mios,
Tenenemos que cambiar
Nuesto camino. Este lugar nos ofrece nada
Y ademas, mira el cielo, gran hermano del mar 
Los ambos dicen: Vaya con Dios, Paco! 
Este mundo no mererce 
Ni tu sueño ni tu sangre
Aquí o allí no hay nada mas para luchar 

Llora, mi amor, llora 
Moja con tus lágrimas la tierra
Un mar ya va a nascer
Entre mi desierto y nuestro lugar
Llora, mi amor, llora...
Esta noche llego en tus brazos 
Y nunca mas no vas a llorar

A Nest In Your Dream

'I'll build a nest in your hair' / and plant some little trees in your garden / so don't despair // and when the morning is up at your windows / I'll be the musk scent in the breeze blows // your eyes will water the tiny forest / thinking of me hidden in that hairy nest // I'll bring your coffee and my decaf / you'll light a cigarette and I'll cough / for both the trees and on your behalf // cause you are the lyrics of this silly song / don't tell me what's right as I don't know what's wrong

Missing Madrid Like Hell

What you can’t find was never there
What you understand is not what you feel 
What you see is not what you open your eyes for
What you love is not what you were born into
Missing Madrid like hell
What you dream is not what you’re allowed to
If you steep outside the line you will have them to get you lost
What you ask for is not what they have to give
If you bark at Moon you’ll soon shout at Sun
Missing Madrid like hell
What have you done to deserve it?
Anything possible
What have you thought about this and that?
No matter what no matter when
Everything is against all odds
Missing Madrid like hell
If you’re not a serial killer buy yourself a gun
Sooner or later you will need one
If you don’t obey find yourself a master
Sooner or later you will feel so damn deep inside your bones
You need to obey to circle the round churches
If your god is pornography all faith is a porn story
Sooner or later you should dress off swing religions go crazy
What you have trusted is vanity fair 
Lose yourself to flesh lose yourself to dirt
Sooner or later you’re gone and nothing comes along with
Missing Madrid like hell
What has been done is to forgive and forget
There is no second chance no second try no second hand no new no no
Sooner or later you will find out and shut down 
Missing Madrid like heaven

Don'T Waste Your Purple Nights

this poem is somehow dedicated to a little
lady dog Charlotte

I wrote it on the beach 
whilst picking up little 
stones shells and snails

I was at peace with 
me and the world

for a couple of hours
I set myself free of looking for 
a job 
and the insignificant thoughts of 
how to pay the rent

So yeah
Dave 
poetry is God

all in all

She's God and She's Born To Miss Us All

there is such a strong will in her blood
you are lucky to witness it
when she's pinching one of her fingers
with a needle to
make her lips up with her blood
and she's slapping her face so the same
blood is pumping up through the veins
and blooms her skiny cheeks
she's combing her dark hair with the same fingers she once cuddled her baby now
dead like a little shining stone hanging
on her white neck inside
an inherited medallion
and she walks out of her square cave
so gentle so silently adamant
to meet you
to forever love you
to offer you her humble life
for she's god
she's yours
she's fine
woman
woman
you're born to miss us all

Romeo Stopped Bleeding

why are you fooling around here 
in this childish 
seek-for-whatever-it-might-be 
game? 

love is not in people
nor even in other breathing things

haven’t you heard the voice? 
Romeo stopped bleeding

love is in the air

take a deep breath and
for chrissake
relax
