Jealousy
An awful advisor
That leaves you by yourself
Heartbroken and grieving
For what was not
For what was lost
For what it really was…

After so many years of hard work
I finally managed to move to the home
I always dreamt for.
This magic place is blessed every morning
by a stunning sun rise over Rio de la Plata,
while in the afternoon the blessing comes
from another awesome sunset over the city.
My magic kingdom is almost at the top of a building,
so the views always take my breath away
while filling my heart with warm gratitude
and the sense of oneness.
Here I feel at peace with myself,
I reconnect with my essence, feeling alive…
part and parcel of the entire Universe.
Past and future stop existing, the mind clears up;
emotions rise and then settle down
(just like the sun and the moon),
and the only thing that matters is the magic jiffy
where I’m still breathing and fully conscious.
To me happiness is that magical tick where I just am…
Looking at the sun and the moon,
observing the sky and the river
teaches me a lot about letting things be
and go with the flow…
that resisting to what it is
takes me nowhere…
because life is about change,
transformation and awareness.
I’m thankful, and attempting to live in gratitude,
free of expectations, open to receive and give.

I have run out of words
Here I am on my very own
Nothing to say
A lot to observe
Trying to make sense of the nonsense
Struggling to locate the symmetry of the self
Promiscuous feelings confusing everything
Provocative thoughts tempting the heart
Pretentious blasphemies insulting the soul
Overwhelming ego’s cacophony
Forcing the slow brewing of mixed feelings
One big *** to mix them all
Quietly observing and appreciating what it is
Attentive to the Universe messages
Resisting the resistance to what it is
Making a conscious effort to go with the flow
Getting deep into the being
Silently conversing with the soul
Free of pretends and inflexible principles
At peace with what it is
Unconditionally loving the self

Clumsy hands moving up and down
Haunted fingertips infinitely counting
For every pearl a tear dropped
For every tear a pearl counted
Memories attached
Feelings concealed
Plenty to reveal
Symbol of purity and renovation
A continuous prompt to be sincere
An urge to remain dignified
A push to keep searching for happiness
The perfect gift she has ever received
From the one she will always grieve

Stubborn as I am
Obstinate as I may appear to be
Determined to just be
Inflexible to restrain
Rarely looking back
Unconcerned of tomorrow
Forever in the now
Mischievous with rules
Impishly laughing to the “I”
Adventurously defying the “am”
Daringly trying out
Frightening sometimes
Intimidating from time to time
Constantly changing
Eternally living
Perpetually reinventing the “I”
Always embracing the “am”

Silver smoke blurring your vision
Noisy TV distracting your mind
Shallow books keeping you busy
Detached, isolated, standing apart
Unable to forgive or forget the past
Bitterness poisoning your feelings
Incapable of showing love
Absent from life, inaccessible
Unaware of your greatness
Master of pain and resent
Forever a victim you remain
Weeping past events
Detesting life all the way
For what you will never repent
Master of disguise
Never showing feelings
Always wearing your iron mask
Books and TV help you forget the life you hate
Smoking keeps your monsters away
Always longing for your deserting mum
For you always felt “not good enough”
Constantly grieving the only man you ever loved
For he was killed on your wedding day
Forever resenting the unwanted child
For whom you married the wrong guy
Master of revenge
An eye for an eye
Always haunted by the past
The world has to endure your pain
No matter what
Motherhood couldn’t mend your shattered heart
For you stayed loyal to your acrimony
Eternal victim of your bitterness
Afraid of abandonment, deserting everybody

Silence, please be quiet
Pay attention and listen carefully
To the silence within
So many things going through my head
An analytical mind doesn’t rest
Hardly trying to silence all the cracking voices
Asking and answering concurrently
As if everything should have a logical answer
For the mind to take it easy
Silence, please be quiet
Pay attention and listen carefully
To the silence within
I must be careful with what I think or say
As I know that thoughts and words create
But regrets don’t undo and sorrow isn’t a fine ally
Silence, please be quiet
Pay attention and listen carefully
To the silence within
I don’t like what I see and hear
The silence is too loud to bear
Stubbornly I kept quietly observing
The mind attempts to complain
But contentment appears
After that there is nothing to fear
For silence becomes a friend and nice place to be
Silence, please be quiet
Pay attention and listen carefully
To the silence within

Mirror, mirror of my soul
Please tell me why you howl
Every time I look at you
Why are you playing games with me?
I dislike what you reveal
Please reflect only nice things
Just the ones I like to see
Mirror, mirror of my soul
Let’s create a better world
Just by changing our approach
When reflecting what we see
Let’s get undressed
Throw away our prejudices
Tear up intolerance
Erase discrimination
Don’t stop until we are naked
Mirror, mirror of my soul
Why did you stop reflecting?

One moment of pride
Unmasked the disgraceful lust
Releasing the auto imposed sloth
Impetus envy and gluttony were the driving force
Unleashing the wrath hidden within
Greedily buried and contained
I became an outcast
A skeptical sinner
Forever to walk on my own
Condemned to eternal damnation
Unless I repent
But I am just a human
Envious of the wind that can flow and be
Proud of who I am
Lusting for freedom
Sloth to follow the rules
Gluttonously enjoying each jiffy
Reacting with rage to the auto impose limits
Avariciously living
I am a human
An unleashed dreamer
Fully living

Didn’t make the front page
Another statistic
Just one more fact
A name added on the list
A casualty soon to be forgotten
Yes I do…
I said while soaked in tears
Not for love but fear
Pain kept me enslaved
Fright left me empty
In and out I was broken
A lethal kiss sealed the deal
You in black, I in white
Predator and prey
Gambling with death
Keeping the act until the end
I could have asked for help
I should have said it wasn’t right
I could have walked away
I should have… I could have…
But I was afraid
And blamed myself
Weakness and regrets aren’t the answer
Your rage was my punishment
As I keep saying “I do”
After each punch and kick
I never fought back
Only crawled and cried
Overwhelming shame
Betraying the self
I let you smash my self-esteem
Believing everything you said
Detaching myself from life
Was my only escape
Incapable of asking for help
I determined our fate
Things could have been different
But now is too late
To change our destiny
To get things in place
I shouldn’t have said “I do”
I could have said “I don’t”
I should have… I could have…
But I was afraid
