The soul wants to get out of the body,
it pushes hard through the eyes.
I sight a plane far up high in the night sky
and I realize I am obssesed with freedom, a new sunrise.
The plane disappears behind a tall building
taking away the oportunity of being free in this city of the unkind.

Where is the kid I used to be? Where did she go?
Where is the love I used to breathe?
And I think, I wonder
why was it that we wanted to grow up?
Carolina Dec 2014
The story of a gay and a ******* that got married.  
He did it to hide himself and she did it to show off something she never had.
Encouraging, don't you think?
They wore so good masks that one day they felt real,
what a shame they were made of porcelain.
Carolina Apr 2020
Dark coffee, late morning.
Hot cup, cold heart.
Slowly sinking into the ocean.
Slowly losing the mind.
A fixed gaze on the wall,
fingers getting burned,
lifelessly inhaling,
feelings begin to rot.
Carolina Jan 2015
Rays of light, last in the sky,
with descending sun, soon to die...

Diving behind horizon, light just disappears,
from the darkness reaching out, shadows appear...

Dark shadows, lurking out to hunt and eat,
children of the dark, soon biting mortal meat...

Loud screams of desperation and pain,
echoing for dead ears, just dying in vain...

This night, demons will have feast,
this night, world is for the beast...

Close your eyes
and find paradise.
It becomes everything you want in life
but then you wake up and don't like what you see,
and you're not the person you want to be.
Sometimes staying in a fantasy world seems like the best option, but I'm losing myself in that dreams and I can't find a way back to normal...maybe I just don't want to. I don't even know myself anymore.
Carolina Jun 2018
Maybe after some months
– or years –
I'll meet your eyes again
and maybe then,
you'll be able to love me.
Or maybe,
just maybe,
I'll have already forgotten you.
Hopefully.
Carolina May 2021
Pienso en vos cuando muero de frío,
pienso en vos cuando me puede el hastío
de un amor sin sentido,
de un amor sin latidos.
Y es que preferiría estar en tus brazos
que en la miseria de este eterno ocaso.
Y es que me conmueven tus caricias y tu calor,
cuando acá sólo parece haber dolor.
Lágrimas sin secar
y noches en vela,
cómo si mí amor por él
fuese una maldita condena.
Por eso me escapo a tu recuerdo,
con tu voz en mí mente, finalmente, me duermo.
Y es que el cuerpo a mí lado ya duerme hace rato,
y es que en su curiosidad perdió la última vida el gato.
Y todavía sigo acá con una compañía ausente.
Y todavía sigo acá, siempre al pendiente.
Otra noche más pensándote.
Otra noche más diciéndo que me iré.
Carolina Apr 2020
No need to eat.
No need to sleep.
My body's kicking me out of it.
Can my soul find a place?
Will it wander lost for ever?
Carolina Apr 2017
What a miserable life you're living;
Bonded to loneliness and pain,
barely coping, trying to survive.
Wishing you would die
every second that goes by.
Carolina May 2019
No sé si soy tonta
o me hago,
tal vez es esto de estar enamorados,
pero tengo un poema de amor guardado
por cada día que paso con vos.
Carolina Mar 2018
Now I accept you don't belong with me.
And I may spend too many days in grief
but at least I could taste your lips.
I can't be sure if you were the one
but I can say you were my happiest time.
But as happy as I was you also made me blue;
you ripped my heart apart and, sadly, I let you.
Carolina Apr 2018
El corazón hemorrágico
siempre tiene una excusa
para el exceso.
Y cuando parece estar
al borde de secarse,
de alguna forma,
sangra un poco
más.
Estar en el círculo, conocerlo muy bien, y aún así, no (querer) encontrar la salida.
Carolina Jan 2018
I've never seen a brighter red than your Honda's one.
The rigid metal cold to the touch contrasts with my warm palm.
Its black wings, mistrustful, promise to enchant you away from me.
They tell me about your reckless riding through the wild city.

Morning glory flowers surround your backyard,
and unlike them we always come alive at nighttime.
Under a ethereal dark blue ocean starred sky
I stare at you stealthily, it doesn't take much until I decide to dive.

Your grey waters and my black waters do not compare,
all of this mismatch leads me to deep despair.
Sinking deep down, it gets darker, but somehow we can breathe.
Trading love to forget our sorrows, hoping it will work as Lethe.
Carolina Dec 2017
Palabras ocultas en su cuaderno barato.
Palabras no dichas por una tonta razón.
Imágenes y recuerdos se vuelven fantasia;
su mente trastornada corrompe su corazón.
Carolina Sep 2020
Did you really thought
I'd be the deer for you to hunt?
I'm the roaring lion
that'll rip your beating heart out.
Carolina May 2018
She mumbles in her sleep,
worthless thing she couldn't keep.
The magnetism turned into cruelty
and the guitar plays a disastrous melody.
Absentminded lover who was never there,
now he's not here and she is aware;
People like him cannot make it last.
He likes taking roses from behind the glass.
He lets people in but "Do not touch anything!"
Peeking through the window is the same **** thing.
She now understands and tries to accept.
You know, she's just me, who would have guessed?
I know you didn't mean all the nice things you said,
to you I was just a new marionette.
I just wanted your love and protection
but you gave me a kick in the face with no hesitation.
You took it all and broke me apart,
but let me tell you the very best part;
I thank you for the depression thrill
but I never needed you and I never will.
She's me and I am her, we keep each other safe.
We are one, an union you can never take.
Bruised heart? Yes. But guess what, snake.
This one you can never break.
Carolina Jan 2019
What a combination,
summer and wine.
You chase that purple dream.
Won't you hold me tight?
Keeping it cold,
meet me after midnight.
You showed and told me so,
how to stay more distant.
All the attention
is in rock and roll,
interrupting the kiss
just to sing along.
Oh, rosy quartz
clean this uncertain way.
Oh, moon and sun
bond us right away.
Carolina Oct 2016
It was an insignificant date to her.
At least that's what she always said,
even though she'd never tell,
deep inside her heart
it was a little special.
It made her believe there's still hope,
even in the darkest and loneliest place.
She never wished for much,
just for a few gold friends
and a little of the happiness she was pretending to feel.
But tonight,
as she lays awake trying to fall deeply asleep,
and failing like every other night,
she felt a sudden need, and a new wish.
A blurry vision of an untouchable body
and a loving caress.
It was the strongest longing for the warmth
that would unfreeze her ice cold soul.
A longing for a ghost hug
that would light her existence.
Tonight, she closes her eyes,
I close my eyes,
and wish for you to break into my dreams.
You, the blue eyes and the tall figure,
the boy who was hidden,
the boy who remain ageless.
Like a God in the sky,
a sparkling star placed in the distant void,
a pair of wings that make the sun shine.
Please come inside my broken mind
and make the fear go away,
help me feel safe,
in this insignificant special date
which means nothing to me,
or at least that's what I always say.
Carolina Oct 2018
La necesidad de un cambio,
casi desgarrador,
que promete una revolución
a nivel interior.
La palabrería
ha nublado toda la razón,
sin lógica alguna
ahora seguís al corazón.
Te lleva a situaciones
donde te disparan a quemarropa.
Ya deberías haber aprendido
a cerrar un poco la boca.
Aunque hay luz
por encontrar
todavía no sabes bien
dónde buscar.
Pero estás creciendo,
ya casi lo logras.
Cuando encuentres a tu gente
no te paran más.
Carolina Nov 2019
Trying to prevent you from living,
those who send you there to be eaten alive.
Thinking of being forgiving
even when they
deprive.
Carolina Nov 2020
Still here
even though I left months ago.
I'm absent
but my conscience overflows.
Carolina Mar 2023
In essence, deep and hidden,
there's the moon
and there is me.
Moving oceans;
raging waves,
hunting winds.
Carolina Jan 2015
Sadness and cigarettes,
you erase your pain with razor blades.
People ask you why
but you never reply.

Drugs and different adictions
which are of self infliction.
Every dream turn to dust
and the blame is on the past.

You are running out of time.
You said: " I have nothing to call mine".
Empty bottles on the floor,
cops are knocking at the door.

Painful way you chose to walk.
The neighbours standing in the whole block.
They are talking ****
but they will never speak.

The life of despair will be forgotten,
just the same way they forgot you were broken.
Adictions took you away
but you've never been so happy till today...
Carolina Jan 2020
Wasted time,
wasted youth.
Was this the path I had to go through?
Carolina May 2016
Cigarette by cigarette
her life slips away.
Day by day, night by night
she's one step closer to goodbye.

Cure her disease,
she only needs affection.
Help her deal with sadness
cause it's causing her an infection.

You could bring her eyes life,
just make her feel loved.
Take her to a joyful ride,
little details count, she does not ask for more.

She'll give everything to you,
and your soft lips will calm her sorrow.
But remember her smile, what a view!
because she may no longer be here tomorrow.
Carolina Jun 2018
Let the ephemeral moments of sunlight
kiss your skin.
Let the rays rest on your body.
Feel the warmth
in these grey days of constant drizzle.
Recognize and embrace the calm, health and happiness among all the sadness and sorrow. Allow yourself to enjoy the moments you feel good ♡
Carolina Jun 2018
I find you in the darkest place
of my mind.
The one I wander at 3 am
sleepless at night.
Where my dreams
slowly die.
You ended up there,
no need to ask why.
Carolina Sep 2018
Illuminated by the moon.
Her whispers come to me.
I show her that I listen,
I'll prove her that I see.
In a white summer dress,
barefoot by the creek,
with my loose long hair
and my soft pink cheeks.
Almost midnight time,
stones, herbs and tree barks,
kneeling on the grass,
going over ancient marks.
My silver hoops sparkle
and I begin to recite
a beesech to a force
unnoticeable to the sight.
Developed energies.
Astral effect;
my state of mind goes higher
so my wish I can project.
I feel its presence;
It thickens the air.
The wind blows stronger.
I can feel its piercing stare.
I command you my will
and I order you to bow
as I start to float inside the circle
baring my tar black soul.
The moon is still there,
up there in the dark sky.
It giggles and whispers:
*You belong to the night.
Carolina May 2018
You cannot blame the wind
for the mess it has done.
It was you who left the window open.
Carolina Jun 2018
Now I realize
I'm the one I've been waiting for.
And I know I'm more
than what meets the eye.
Now I declare false
half of the things that I swore.
I will furnish you
with all the thoughts I go by.
Now I understand
my mind's state of war
and I sincerely admit
the feelings
I used to deny.
Now I'm standing,
feet bleeding, peaceful postwar.
Sometimes the aching
seems to magnify.
This awareness grows
inside me like a tumor
but I won't turn around
nor say goodbye.
Even if my soul
is deep sore,
even if my eyes
I cannot dry,
even if I'm kneeling
on the floor
my survival strength
you will identify.
And I will be
my own God to adore;
I'll pray to myself
not to the sky.
There's a fire
originating deep down my core.
Through this rising flames
I'll be purified.
And you'll wonder
how I stand strong
when I used to be
the weakest inside.
I'll tell you this,
and no more,
it's possible
once you control your mind.
Carolina Dec 2017
You didn't ask me if I was okay.
You gave no goodbye, just turned away.

The saddest part is that I'd run into your arms,
no thinking needed, I'd instantly buy the scam.

Because your heavy metal tones wander through my core,
because for only one bitter kiss I would implore.

You could send for me, I would come alive.
You could give me up once again, I promise not to cry.

I will not send you mean texts, I will not call you non-stop.
I will not act like a lovesick, as long as this repeats a billion times more.

Call me back, please, call for me.
I can do what you want, just say I'm your baby.

This suffocating feeling I cannot let go,
love? whim? whatever it is, it makes me feel whole.
Carolina Mar 2018
You came in without knocking,
you took over the place.
Now everything is so messy,
my rhythm you've outpased.

I can't sleep since you live in me.

My body is decaying,
I want no food, just small sips.
It all stupidly started
the day I degusted your lips.

I can't eat since you live in me.

I won't sing my favorite songs
because you know how to play them.
Specific music now hurts my soul
because you, with your guitar, create it.

I can't enjoy something I love since you live in me.

My inside's so heavy,
you filled it with your stuff.
I'm unable to walk,
but I won't call your bluff.

I can't have will since you live in me.

Maybe it's not so bad,
maybe I'm being dramatic.
It's just that to me
you're so magnetic.

I can't think clearly since you live in me.

I know you're hiding something.
I know, to me, you're not good.
Maybe if I let time work on it
you'll finaly start being true.

I can't trust since you live in me.

I smoke my lungs black
because it makes me think of you.
I drink the night away
because it makes me forget you.

I can't stay healthy since you live in me.

There's a lot of things I can't do
since you live in me.
But I do love you
and want you to be happy.
Even if it destroys me.
So make a wreck of your home,
dim every light,
until you find a new one,
I'm sure it won't take that much time.
I know you'll leave. You'll go away and leave me in ruins.
Carolina Aug 2019
Today
more than ever
I long to be in your arms
to make it all feel better
to fade away these scars
Carolina Dec 2020
Morning tediousness.
I take my sight through the room and I spot loneliness standing in the corner.
The window's opened, warm breeze coming in. The summer sun's up high.
I feel your presence, but not in a physical form.
A bird's nest inside my chest, with no pigeons just emptiness.
Both of us always staring through the distance.
Eyes always devouring,
mouth drooling.
Catching your eyes sight,
everlasting in me.
Limitless and wild
I let the silk fall down
in my mind.
I was never yours to keep,
you were never mine to stay.
Yet the energy calls us,
or perhaps it only calls me.
Nothing to demand, nothing to wish.
So keep staring in silence
with your everlasting sight in me.
Carolina Feb 2017
Maybe the stars feel lonely too,
perhaps they’re hurting inside,
crying through the night
because they can’t have you.

All I want is for your poison
to black out my light
just like the sun fades the stars
with every sunrise.

And as the stars stare at you
the sadness haunts me,
their spirits wander lonely
the same way as I do.
Carolina Mar 2018
Go ahead and keep playing with me.
You think it's funny that you made me weak.

But in this moment I say no more,
the tables have turned and I stand strong.
And beware,
because I can make hell feel like home.

— The End —
