Arrecifes

Centellas de rojo, purpura y azul
con la cara de la luna
Ella como una madre, admirando
como sus cachorros descubren el alba.

Entre promesas, sonrisas y culpa
se encuentra una perla fugaz
Brilla y refleja, cual gota de deseo
con el sabor salvaje de la jungla.

La tierra bajo tus pies, piernas y espalda
El agua lamiendo nuestro lecho infinito
El aire arrancando tus suspiros
El fuego refractado en mis pupilas

El alma no escapa por los ojos,
cual brisa placida y fluida
Fuerza su camino, destruyendo, hiriendo, violando
hasta quedar el rostro desnudo y frágil.

La belleza descubierta, por el simple hecho de ser.
 

Loophole

This is now the only way to reach her
This is now my only lifeline
Because I gave my word
And I intend to keep it
I'm sorry for my slurred speech
I'm sorry for my wavering steps
I'm not sorry for my words
I meant them
Like a message in a bottle
Thrown out to sea
I have incredible hope
That it will reach the right person
Thank you for everything you gave me
I will never forget it

It isn't fair.
Every day I meet her, the woman of my dreams
And every day I wish to tear off
A part of my soul to give to her.
The expat with the blue blue eyes
Who wishes ten more years on me
The short brown haired tweaker
Who lit up at a single smile
The blonde Argentine hostess
Starving for her home tongue
Every one of these souls
I wish to devote my life to
But I only have one life to give
And so in fear of giving it away wrongly
I keep it to myself, never knowing
What could be
What will be
What love is
But like a miser with his coins,
I have my stainless heart
To keep me warm at night
Now that I know no other heart
Ever will

I have tried
So many times
To keep writing

But I can't
It hurts too much
Goodbye
