Old News

How funny it all is
we ended up not even talking about this
bitterness consumed our souls
confusion persuaded us to be so low
We fought for pennies
Disposed collections 
Became enemies
Severed our interaction
We made a big scene
then ran away 
to reset our minds
to a new dream

I guess in the end
We fitted the part of fake romance
pretending we would never die
yet investing in coffins
certain we would not survive

“Until the end”
You wrote on a piece of ripped paper
We could never really even start
You had the habit of leaving me alone
then accusing me of having a heart

Come on, 
And I never really lied to you
I even told you all my stories
But that to really hurt you

I’m sorry for trying to make you believe
That you never meant nothing to me
When in fact
I thought that without you
I would never be able to live
yet after I thought through
For the sake of both our hearts
I really wished that I had never really met you
What I would do right back at the start
Knowing everything we would go through?

When you tried to implant 
this conformed Nonsense 
to keep me at hand
Without believing 
in the free power 
of what your heart could do
I stopped fully believing in you
Sorry I made you cry 
But from my body you almost removed the light

What happened next was just a fact
Life changed to be anything it can be, 
except it will always drag in my bed
The whispers of what we would be
if we were still we
Sometimes this pain 
Removes from me 
the peace of being able to sleep

Man how messed up was life before you came through
But in time your fake sanity drove me so far away from the truth
I did everything you asked me to do
And some other things too
But your games ended up becoming 24/7
For you
I can’t survive the silence you condemned to
Resignation made weak
Accepting judgments made me weep

But now I feel really good

It’s like I learned a thing or two
That will make me not only move on
But kind of understand you
We came in this life 
With a prospect that never 
Really left the realm of
Both of us living together, 
in truth 
may peace be residing in you
glad we once were, 
but happier we’re old news

Gifted

What would be of my life
Without insanity
It is this portal that opens at will
To massage my feeble mind
To understand that the finite
Is unreal
Ah dreams of colors that never will
Invade the pupils
Who only see
Faded teals
I wonder to forget
Can never go back 
To where I left
Yet, I return
With hope
Surrounded by steel

Ah craziness in my mind
Is this drink that makes
My darks just a mixture
To this too freaking bright light
That irrespective of the entire black matter
Growing in galaxies surrounding my life
Shines with insistence
Refusing to stand still

I had to navigate to the darkest sky
To understand the type of light
That survives any fear
And unveils the truth
That scares cyclical wheels
Craziness is a gift
That only sparks when
You are real
What a dichotomy of facts
That the only reality in my chest
Is the one that pushes me away from all
I was told was the only real

Now my errors are adjustments
To enforce the persistence of perfection
Surrounding my view
One day it will be no longer the lie
That would glitter with faded dyes
The heads of colorless pupils
Will they survive? Unsure
I made it alive, to never die
To forever breath
The air that blows me alive
Normalizing all my crazy
sentencing that foolish sanity
To its useless appeal
My head exploded too large
Excuse my sitting in the promenade
Waving with a smile
What you still have to one day
Reveal as true
Just remember to smile
Because when it gets dark
Only your light can bring you back
To whatever perception you decide to
Accept
Make your real
Be steel

On Fertile Ground

Once I found my ground
I felt rivers coming down
warmth in my cheeks
mourning the old soiled soil
that ceased to exist

I let life drop violently on my tendency to coil
Unaware that the opposite motion
Would stretch my arms
Legs
Torso
Dreams

--

I breath elegantly now
Motion controls
What comes in
What I want to show
Feeling my internal lung walls
Solid and moist
Watching my external ethereal walls
Dissipate 

Evaporating the snow

Holograms of potential results
Of what I could not see
Of what I could not control
Gone to make room for facts
Of what truly pertains to the threads of my soul

Eyes start to see
Growth
Finally sustained
Finally with self-love

One step and the flowers spark
Two steps and the bees arrive
Three steps
Fertility pumps its life
And I see more

Less shy
I dream alive
Seeing so much 
With 360 eyes
My hands
They glow

--

Life of my soil
Is finally getting its start
Not belonging no more
Where thoughts 
were from reality
too far
they married
one is the script
the other is the show
and each second
they want more

I feel my skin pumping life 
in all directions
its like breathing through every pore 
no more holding

on

tears come rolling free
for laugh, emotion, idiosyncrasies
pain, devotion

I am what I can be

I finally sweet up my bitter taste with fruits
Nectar of never subduing to fear
Seeds come blessed by the life that unites with others
Never alone
Never forgotten

Hands appear

And different dreams walk near
Meshing my colorful garden of life
Growing in extreme fertility
Finally breathing
Finally coming to sight
My eyes burn in emotion
For all the moments hands wanted to go
Rest
But heart made them stir up
South, north, east and west
to where I succeed
Peace dancing with infinity

Sincere flaws
Rooting the successes of resilient souls
Resistance to fear
magical self-control

Now so much air runs in my scalp,
Navigating in random patterns
Drawing any possibility
On top of my dreams

I am on fertile ground
A fertile ground is me
And I can grow anything
All I need to do is to close my eyes
And believe

when here
life and dream
are a unity

Ephemeral Infinity

And that tranquil feeling didn’t leave
This time of chaos
It stayed
On my chest
Holding my hand from inside, telling me I was 
Alright
even if bleeding
No smiles
But no tears
No fake hope
But no flaky belief
I transform any crystalized moment
Of swallowed tears
Agony and forceful sanity
In flowers blooming from my heart
Seeing more than any heart has ever asked for,
But when I saw that broken mirror giving me infinite perspectives
My curious sight forgot to weep
As that vision opened one million universes for me
A jolt
Of light
It was absurd in form of symphony
I finally got the mystery I came here one million lives 
Of irony
To see
and now I can see

It’s like looking at myself somehow
Feels my heart with bliss
Compassion that one can give to oneself
Is more irradiant and powerful
If honest
As it extends to anyone who can breath
I cannot hate my enemies
And I also can’t feel fear
I won’t deliberately hold their hands
But I am not sure I can
Ferociously let go
If they hold me asking for mercy
I know I look fragile
Yet like a bull
Who steps so soft
That feet don’t crush even a field of daisies
I love life
I made through here
We all got cuts
Blood
Sadness inside
but nothing lasts forever
and the ephemeral moment is so full of infinity
that makes me eternally believe
I still leak more than I absorb
But I have compassion for this baby
Who is just learning how to breath

Touch

You reached me from far
Landed too strong

Scarlet juice flying in the air

Food coloring from the heart 
Splashing in the breath of lost souls

I whipped rivers inwards
My cheeks dry outside, 
floods in my pores

Lips tight like locks

I looked fierce

eyes as open
as defiant as my new shape could conform

Mocking the wrecking ball who came to

Demolish 

And ended up melting in the heat of my 
burning soul

An Ode To Narcissus

All these years I tried to sugarcoat the pain you gave me
I tried to understand your how’s
Accept your when’s
be absent in your where’s
and ended up alone in my why’s

I can’t even believe that I was able to melt 
I. was. Able. To. melt. In. your. Arms.
You took all the safety from me
All I could do was curl in or fight back

I am such a rock right now
With all you tossed at me
Fists
Vases
Coffee cups
Purple skins
Chokeholds
Kicks in ribs
Lies and dreams

All the worst saved for me
And it was so often that my alchemy
Failed inside
At first, then
I became more human
Than any human alive
I felt your pain
Running in my veins

I said what I thought I couldn’t
I did what I thought I shouldn’t
We dug the worst monsters inside of us
And let then meet without rules
to gamble with our trust
I couldn't feel sometimes for the sake of life
To protect my soul
And carry on outside
But that’s the worst trap
When to ourselves
We choose to lie

You stuck around
I don’t know why
Hoping one day
I could accept
The version of me
That you created in you brain
And in my body and soul
You sought to materialize

But we were two children
Just old outside
Yet lost inside
Pretending to know it all
And having to face our own lies

And it hurts inside
Cuz I am still here
evaluating my fears
Of being again the victim of those
who loves the reflexes on ponds
But can't dive into their own night

I don’t want to be echo
I can’t be echo
How could I become echo?
So I follow Narcissus
So I follow that light
Was I lonely in desperation?
Was I afraid of my own fight?

Then I humble myself
To understand
That was the journey
The tests set for my life

I learned so much in here
Who am I?
Became
Who I am
What I used to fear
No longer has a hold on me
And hate dissipated
Opening room
For infinity

Life and its lessons
Nightmares disguised of dreams
And it hurts still because 
I still believe in love

Yet I forgot to believe in me
So many times
Steps of becoming
That’s part of being me
Being hurt by someone
You gave all entirely yourself away
Is such a test of strength 
Because how painful it feels to 
See you giving yourself
To an illusion you will never
Obtain

Can your love for yourself
Be enough to that pain
Withstand?
The difference between
Weakness and strength
I fell in love with everything
When I could look with kind eyes
To my darkest sins
Every form of life
Became kin to me

At that moment
Your attacks becames
Yells of help
And I heard your heart
Silently weeping

And the castles were made of sand
And the words were said in vain
And the laughs started to be
Just to ease the pain
Not fruits of hard work
From a pair having cherished fun

And it hurts

And I lied that I was fine
And I lied that I forgave
And I lied that I would not despise
Anything that deviate
From the love that you contextualized
To convince me to forever stay

How could you change when you gained me
Is it your sickness?
Or you just gaming?
How shameful it is
I couldn’t get it
Not even a bit
How someone could be so close
And so infinitely far away from me

You hurt me
You hurt me

And I gave you all of me
You almost change me forever
Glad I recorded evidences of a favorable scene
So I can remind of me when I believed 
You were real
Not a decaying dream
You can haunt another soul
But I truly pray that instead
You finally choose to grow
To give that scared little boy inside
The love that he wants most
Yours

I can never hate you
Or anyone for that matter
You are too beautiful
Beyond that perfectly
Shaped matter
That somehow my soul
Don’t crave no more

I will keep walking to this new beginning
This beginning is bright
Full of love and meaning
Brave enough 
To sprinkle truth in 
Resistant lies

I accept that I became
Something you cannot
Hold tight

And since you said I was once
The best you ever had
Thank you for the ride

Be love
Then love
You will finally find

Goodbye my love
My ears became unable to hear 
reality constructs 
that are nothing more than lies
It hurts
But now
It’s time

My Metamorphosis

hiding for the sake of other's comfort
is the worst mistake
and the one
i always make
it is as if i was gregor samsa
hiding myself in my room
not to abhor those who cannot
deal with
the metamorphosis in me
360 bug eyes are fantastic
but sometimes a blind view
is the best view out there to see
those who look biased
will see exactly what they wanna see
but even though perception might be reality
reality is way beyond 
opaque minds and eyes 
can ever reach
don't blame me when i fly
with my monstrous wings growing
grotesquely through the incisions
life - I will call - has imposed upon me
you wonder if I am crazy
crazy is what you want to see
but truthfully
I have never met anyone
who I could certainly say
is not crazier than me
you see, in my world 
what reigns is the mirror image
of what you call lunacy
but damn
in here we fly, with 360 view eyes
and a loud voice who laughs
and sings
stay in your normalcy
stationary mind
punching your smokey demons
with fists that are ever
out of reach
think I will wait for that apple in my back
like samsa did?
no
I will fly through the glass
with my bipolar dichotomy
peculiar
too idiosyncratic
for your monotonic 
mind to perceive

Permanent

Irrespective of what you do
I will always live my truth
I still feel we can be more
Than just a wise and a fool
But if that is the fact
At least I am still reflecting what I should do
I never fall back
Ahead is the only arrow
That I allow my eyes to pursue
Stay fragile and you sink
You hit hard
But hard isn’t a fact
Just a variable without a cap
and to drop me
be sure to reach for infinity
Because I can bounce up and down
And reach what you could not even dream
Momentum is captured in many ways
My style has always being my only way
And you can be strong
but strength is just another changing stage
to factor in
to all the battle that in the end 
I win

I hold you close
Because you are afraid to feel fear
But to save our love I have to bleed my tears
I made mistakes and survived the out of control
Compounded the thickness of my skin
And I still love your soul
And I still stand without fear
No one should repent to be truthful 
to ones’ right to be free
I don’t hold you accountable 
For what is nothing more
Than my responsibility
So don’t say sorry
The only reason you are here is because 
I already accepted what you came here to be
Ha, the eternal dystopian dichotomy

If we fought, I accept what I lost
Give your finger or shake my hands
It depends of who you turn out to be when this all ends
Irrespective of what begins and what ceases to exist
I stand tall ready to die in glory
Never forgotten in the rage of somebody’s mist

Mother

Was I never enough or was I always too much? 
Or was I just right there missing your touch?
How could you break it through
Life gave you life but placed these crazy challenges
Upon you
You had me, I wish I had you
You saw me, unsure what you saw when you realized I was not like you
I was me, just me
Somehow your heart was so hurt, so stuck, so encaged
That all you wanted me to be was 
Free
I see now mother
You wanted me to be free of your pains
Free of your sins
Free of your chains
But you could never let go
And how could you teach your daughter the unknown?
And seeing me walking wildly in the night
Made you see in me the beast you abhor
Your daughter became the beast you wanted to be
But in desperation you pedestalled me
When I free-fell to the ground 
you complained of my scene
Then we sat in hell over tea
What a nice day was that, truly
You heard me for once
I saw you, more than just my old glances
You are beautiful
Broken
Now you mending
Becoming
Awoken
Now you are finally bending
To accept all of me
To see me more than a daughter that looked like someone you pushed from your womb
but at any chance you said My mother was other someone’s
because of how I spoke
because of what I smoked
because of what I did
I am yours
I am yours
Cant you see
I’m not a phony
I’m not a smart ass
I’m not a titanium beast
I’m just me
I made myself this strong
To accept that you never made me home
Because your house was just a prison
In that case, thank you
For trying 
To make me free
For trying through me
To be free
Can we both embrace
Without chains
Without covering our tastes
Just 
That fact that I love you
You love me
And maybe we can build 
A healthy
We?

Letting Go, Letting Flow, Letting Glow

i calculated the steps to a life in my head
and ended up learning to fly for a life in my heart
i set a world of expectations 
for who i perceived i was
for those around me
I demanded a precise love
when tossed in reality
I was faced with the hard fact
that those expectations i set
could never by the best of me
be met
i became human
when i saw the human in you
i became human
when i saw how much i failed you
At first, the pain was too much for me to chew
and i broke up with myself
to punish the last being who could not
meet up my absurd set in stone point of view
it took me sometime
but i learned to accept
who i am
finally embracing my unabashed truth
and then i reconnected with life
closing my eyes to what i wanted to be
opening them to this ocean of infinite possibilities 
i shut down my mind
got my heart fully unlocked
i accepted i was the villain and the victim
in my own inner plot
yet nothing ever got simpler
nor I expect them to be
i just learned to reach for the stars daily
to deliver to the world
the light i have within me
and for that, I don't need to expect a thing
i just love
i just live
i just breath
