PoemMaybe you should let the ocean drink it’s water Maybe you should stop pleading them to stay Maybe you should unstitch your heart, it will heal anyway Maybe you should let you voided soul live in the present Maybe the future isn’t what your eyes has envisioned Maybe it’s just a wake up call that not all flowers sprout Just maybe you don’t exist in their mission nor vision Maybe you not what they thought of. Maybe you should let the ocean surf it’s waves Maybe your heart is a dry land Or maybe it’s an empty ocean and you can’t see that Maybe you should stop forcing them to sail your ocean Maybe you should wait instead of trying Maybe the only thing that was made for you it’s you Maybe your heart swallowed more than it’s size Maybe self isolation is what you should cage Just maybe you should wait till they find you Maybe butterflies you always felt flying in your belly are fairies Maybe they are just dead fishes floating in your ocean Maybe rainy days are hiding from you because your dry ocean is impatient Maybe sunny days are just memories you hate Or maybe you've been searching under the wrong season Maybe you shouldn’t be searching Maybe what comes and leave never found what they need in you Maybe what you dug in them is buried in you You swallowed the whole titanic and never found what you need Just you, maybe is what you should seek Maybe what you need is you Maybe you should stop painting their caves and paint your own Maybe you should stop burning their cold caves Maybe your fire burns the guilt that sleeps in their caves Or maybe your too hot for them Maybe your flames aren’t what they can wear around other’s Maybe your sparks aren’t the present you hold for them Just maybe your warmth is so comfortable that they wish to stay yet afraid Maybe they are afraid you'd see how cold they need your warmth Maybe you should look deep in your cave Maybe you should burn your own Maybe, just maybe or maybe what you need is you

MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, OR MAYBE WHAT YOU NEED IS YOU.

Its funny how My face looks like A dance floor And my lips dance In smiles When they see your face. As if you knew How to sing the truth. I wish you could See what your Brocken Harmony did to my Only heart that sings better than The mockingbird.

Broken Harmony.
Inside my heart lives an angelic devil She has possessed me with her charming demons. Every last word I utter is shadowed by a heart shaped smoke And every time I feel weak she lift me up with her broken wings. She full fill my incomplete dreams Like tyra does to her next top models. When she walks on the idle with he penicured devil nails I am afraid not to expose the scars she planted with her sharp nails on my garden. She is my volcano, when I see her I can taste the lava from the layer of my stomach And feel the heat through my throat. As my heart impatiently wait for the lava to evaporate She would melt it down with her icy lips and snowy breath As if she knew the temperature my body couldn't withstand. When she smiles my heart earthquakes And my soul floats inside the hole of Satan. I wonder how she does it, stretching her wings with missing furthers And fly like an hungry owl. She's an angel with horns Horns where all her strength lies on. She's an angel with a long tale A tale that measures the existence of our love. This devil is an angel. This angel is devil. It breaks my heart and quickly mends it. It marks my garden with its nails and gives me the reason to leave but I fail to For those marks are a the lines she trace in search of me. She drew a map on my garden! This angelic devil is smart! Inside my heart lives an angelic devil Burning every vein that keeps my heart awake Man this heart burn feels so phenomenal. She is fire, she burns our bond with no smoke.

The world was angry At my mother's rasty womb. I was born an it got worse. My brother was born And it felt cursed, But my mother...she was blessed. My conspiracy was enslaved By the pain that sleeps On my mother's hands. So heavy that she only smiles tears When the news broadcast Another dead albino. We walked the streets With fear moon walking upon Our hearts an their eyes swimming in flames. Mother why are they looking at us... You are a sunflower my child. But in the wrong garden, my brother asked. Your beauty burns more than flames you can imagen, You crack the earth with your chicken feet, You make blind walls to see. She said with her eyes above the ocean And her bruised heart That glued its mouth like racism was finally laid to bed. My death was the only demon That made my brother look for a corner Where his knees will kiss his chest Forgetting how round this world is. They killed us like they were singing a national anthem. The only corner that still lives Is not at home nor at schools Nor at the police office nor at hospitals But his grave. I promise my brother that he will live. I promise my mother that's she will sing. I promise them...peace. When I reach the heavens gate, my mothers rasty womb will shine For God will bone it with a smile Every corner shouts albinism In bold letters painted on boards And papers like we all share a name. My name is not albino... My name is Virginia, My brother is Alex And this...this is our home. Our four fathers an mothers Where throne with dust. How dare you hounor them with blood.

SHE WAS INVITED HOME Every tear stole her smile Sadly sigh after saying grace Her lips sealed with fear Her eyes blurred by death And her strength drowned inside an Amen. It’s cold to believe that she’s gone When all we hoped for was for her to return an burn our frozen paws. The oxygen refused to escape her mouth for it was willing But the engine of her heart lost all its faith And the line of equator separated her life to death. Mourns the sun Inviting grey clouds to silence wounded hearts Stroke heavy lightning Pleading freedom for hidden drops of water From the river of eyes… they leniently flow. Driven down to the foundation of her new home, Her daughter’s angelic voice arose heavier than her pain. Beautiful flowers painted her home. Heavy soil escaped the space between my fingers. Ha ha mazing grace, how sweet that sounds? Sang the happy gravy, To poke the void inside a heart That now breath without its roots.

She was invited home.
MY FRIEND I hate to hear the word gone When all I feel is your presence when am alone. I hate to hear the word too soon When all I can't wait is to see you soon. I hate it when the sun rise for it reminds me of the sun burn we both have When the sun moves I look at my shadow Hoping to see yours too. When the sun set I hide behind board games Trying to find the mystery you feared from jumanji. Now that I'm trapped in the woods I sit and wonder if nature is what you feared. I still wonder, If you were here would you still be my friend And concur the world with me, Would you really stand by me. I'm sorry to be selfish But if my shadow can evade me Who am I to fool my self and trust you When you gave your life to the teeth less land. If heaven had a door I would just knock at the door And fly like the king of birds For I'm not that strong to hold goodbyes with my lenient shoulders. When you died I lost my left wing and tried to slice my other wing And join you on your heavens trip But mommy told me suicide isn't a solution to heal but to hurt those who have healed. I am sorry but I tried And I know your not sorry because you did it. I wish the world impregnated you with another chance So I can pause the sand watch And we both watch the last leave Slowly floating in the silent wind.
