I’m scared of death
But not my own
I’m terrified of watching my parents’ faces turn unrecognizable with wrinkles
And their voices becoming that of old people
And then one day, they’re gone
I don’t sleep at night thinking of this
Being aware that everyone we love
Everyone we know
Will leave us eventually
And not necessarily in chronological order
And then I start thinking about a series I watched some months ago
The characters thought they’d died and gone to Heaven
But turns out, it was The Bad Place
And maybe we think we’re living on Earth
When in reality, this is The Bad Place
Isn’t losing everyone we love torture?
But then again, without sorrow there’d be no happiness
We’d be pretty unhappy being happy all the time
The unsolvable riddle
So are we in The Good Place or The Bad Place?
Or are there no “places”, and when we go it’s really the end?
But if we’re energy, we can’t be destroyed
Only transformed
Into what?
Dust? Ghosts?
Are we born again?
One thing is the physical body, another the soul
Our soul lives on forever, supposedly
So are we born again and again forever?
But isn’t forever too... infinite?
It must get tiresome to live a million lives
Again, that’s torture
It’s sad if we stop existing
But it’s sad if we exist forever, too
If that’s the case, maybe that’s why we don’t remember our previous lives
So we experience life for the first time every time
I guess that must be it

Mi amada Daisy
Ya no tengo quien me avise cuando hay alguien en la puerta
Quien se acurruque en mi panza cuando estoy triste
Quien me vea preocupada cuando estoy enferma
Quien duerma junto a mí en la cama, tapada de pies a cabeza
Era el paraíso despertar con un bultito tan bello y calientito
Mi chiquitita, my tiny
Tan fría que querías parecer, pero cuánto me querías
Todo el día pegada a mí, todo el día en mis piernas
Corrías a sentarte en el tapete para acompañarme hasta en el baño
Sabías perfectamente cuando me iba a ir de viaje
Te subías a mi maleta, y escuchaba tus lloridos desde la puerta
Mi vaquita, mi chilpetina
Ya no tengo quien me despierte en la mañana para ir al baño
Jamás te hiciste en la cama, ladrabas para que te bajara y te abriera
Ladrabas y corrías a tu platito de agua cuando querías agua
O frente a tu platito de comida exigiendo que era hora de comer
Solita lo aprendiste, "Such a smart puppy!"
Mi tinky winky, my ****** twinkle
Ya no tengo a quien soplarle en la carita
Y que como respuesta me llene de besos
No tengo con quien batallar para que coma
Ni a quien ponerle tus vestiditos todos chiquitos
A quien observar, morir de amor, e inevitablemente llenar de besos
Mi bébe, my puppy
Eras tan fuerte que jamás te quejaste de nada
Ni siquiera cuando tus pequeños riñones empezaron a fallar
Siempre estuviste alegre, moviendo tu colita
Excepto en tus últimos días, apagada
Sabías que ya habías cumplido tu misión, que ya era hora
Mi preciosura
GRACIAS por quererme, por hacerme feliz con sólo verte
GRACIAS por cuidarme, por absorber mis males y tristezas
GRACIAS por esperar a que llegara para irte
GRACIAS por ser fuerte cuando tu cuerpo más débil estaba, para poder decirnos adiós estando juntas, en casa
GRACIAS por escogerme como mamá
Mi florecita bella
Fuiste la mejor y más hermosa perrita del Universo
Tenerte fue lo mejor que me pudo haber pasado
¡Qué bonito habernos encontrado en esta vida!
No sabes lo inmensamente feliz que me hiciste
Te amo tanto y lo sabes, porque te lo decía cada 3 segundos
Mi pequeña angelita hermosa
Nos quedamos dormidas abrazadas, y viste el momento
Amaneciste aún abrazada a mi brazo, pegada a mi pecho
Con una carita feliz, llena de paz... pero ya en el arcoiris
Ya no tengo quien haga todas esas cosas aquí
Pero en todas partes te veo, y escucho tus ladriditos tan bellos
Te guardo en mi corazón mientras me esperas en el arcoiris
Jugando, corriendo, observándome y cuidándome
Espérame ahí, hasta que sea hora de que vaya a recogerte
I love you forever, my tiny

Oh, Sally
Jack just wants to pass the time
He'll take you to a dark alley
Tell you you're sublime
But he doesn't care
Wants you on his list
70 so far, he'll swear
But you just won't resist
"My heart I will never open again,
I want Sally, and Mandy, and you"
He confessed to me then
"Nothing serious, but they'll have no clue"
And so, Sally, you're not forever
And you're not the only one
But you don't seem so clever
Enjoy the (false) feeling you've won

When I was young
I used to think
Love was as simple
As that instant "click"
When I was older I met someone
We'd talk for hours
We'd talk about everything
It felt comfortable
But soon enough
Paradise began to slip away
We had plenty of love, but we lacked time
With a heavy heart we parted
And then I met an old man
He told me this, too late
"Regarding love, two things matter:
the man, and the time you both invest"

Love is a terrible thing to waste
You’ll realize one day with a bitter taste
When you’re alone
Or when you’re lonely with someone
And you’ll remember that time
When you committed a crime
When you found her and let go
Back then you didn't know
But love takes no excuses
Wrong decision and one loses
You listened to your rational brain
And now from love you won’t hear again

I wasn't ready to say goodbye
With you, I felt so high
The way you'd bite my lips
The way you'd hold my hips
I miss your pretty face
Miss when my body you'd trace
Going on adventures
And you giving me lectures
I was your muse
Then I was old news
Did everything I could've done
And still we came undone
But I still remember
Our happy days before September
I wish we could go back to then
I hope we meet again

Ella quería construir
Él sólo sabía destruir
Ella buscaba lo positivo
Él siempre tan negativo
Ella caía en sus redes
Él ponía paredes
Ella le daba flores
Él le daba desamores
Ella por las noches lloraba
Él con sus palabras la lastimaba
Ella por él cambiaba
Él igual se quedaba
Un mundo tenían por descubrir
Tantas aventuras por vivir
Pero él prefirió rendirse
Y a ella no le quedó más que irse

I missed him when he was away
I felt everything when he was around
All it took was a "hey"
To make my heart start to pound
Hadn't felt them in years
A thousand butterflies with each kiss
But it would all end in tears
I wish his first "hi" I'd miss
His feelings were locked in a cage
He cared only for himself
He would spit words in a rage
Made me feel bad about myself
But this magic was so rare
I tried to keep it alive, to fight
I tried my best, I swear
But it takes two to make a thing go right
And so in the end
We couldn't agree on anything
What we had, I couldn't mend
So I said "Goodbye, darling"
I missed him when he was away
But felt nothing when he was around
He killed the magic

They always thought it'd be blue
But bright red, it made its way through
For she wasn't a princess
She was a damsel in distress

He had his demons in jars
He said he had his flaws
From life he had some scars
For love he had his laws
He was made of stars
He was a galaxy and more
He might have been from Mars
But I could see right into his core
He looks in the mirror and sees imperfection
I hope one day you'll see what I see
And on the back of the reflection
I hope you see me
