There is a secret garden
where I’m the warden
and everything shines
made to fit in rhymes

good morning
the sun is out
at the end of an August drought
I could see a new plant sprout

everyday I would take care of it
promising to never quit

one day a flower appeared
but she was weird
like she wouldn’t fit
lost in a place where her hues
were my main muse
too beautiful to be normal

then I realize
sun’s light had became dim
because, by now, that flower
was the one bringing light to the garden.

Lonely days
I'm still searching for a place to stay
explored old alleys
and could only find
the same face
because the one that I adore
just went away through that door

Now I walk in the rain
expecting the whole world
and getting nothing
quiet and bubbly
as I write down private thoughts in public.

Even through shadows
she shines like
there is no other star
up in the sky
because your smile was like the sunrise
my inspiration for art
a poem needless to rhyme
and even though she may deny
it is impossible to disguise
the beauty inside her heart.

At the darkest nights
you manage to find your spot
sparkling among the stars
illuminating my life
with your white light
just like a full moon
filling all of the room
left in my heart.

Nights awake
too much time to waste
thinking what to think
what you think
about me

But then I realise
you are the only thing
on my mind.

It's like trying to run away from the moonlight
history without tragedy
sun without fire
it's inside me, I can feel it burning
and I never know if it will hurt or heal
but I keep running
trying to get to you
like a wolf at midnight
your love is what keeps me alive.

When she cries
it's like shooting stars fly
right across the sky
and a piece of me die
because I just wanted
to see her smile.

She was art
the kind of art
when seen with the heart
become easy to realise
it's actually
a masterpiece.

She was just another star
from a distant constellation

But she didn't know that
looking from his planet
she was already a
beautiful nebula.

Her eyes were like stars
in a clouded sky
at midnight;

She felt like
she wasn't
bright enough;

But he was in love
with her moonlight.

I used to think
about traveling the world
searching for a happy place to go

but then I've met this girl
and realized
I'm in the happiest place I could be,
in a relationship between you and me.

You are
my early morning sun
my midnight moon

and even in my dreams
there is light

because eyes are not required
to see how much
you shine.

In a starry-starry night
you tell to look up at the sky
and then I realise

the star that shines the most
is the one by my side.

Her tears were like a storm
one of those that makes you cry

And her smile was like the morning sun
one of those that makes you feel alive

The weather has never been so intense
and it hurts to live in a house without windows.

Her eyes were like
stars in a clouded sky
at midnight

She felt like
she wasn't bright enough

But he was in love
with her moonlight.

Blinded because of the sea
surrounded by some beach trees
looking deep inside I could see
some mermaids staring at me

''Oh my dear what do you desire?''
a love that could light up a fire
that will resist the strongest storm
and still keep me warm

One of them grabbed me by the hand
''not even in the farthest sealand
you will find a love that could stand
and you probably will never understand''

As she told me that
the sun began to rise
but luckily I wasn't sad
because I truly believe
my mermaid is out there
somewhere.
