Just before I thought of you
I was happy
Happy on my own
But then you made me feel
Whole again
Which never lasted
Illusion and too good to be true
But even with my last sense of life
I still wish you happiness and
Nothing less
Maybe one day
I will be courageous enough
To be back again
With my whole self
On my own again
Feelings are difficult

Us
You were my sun
As I was your moon

And ours was a rare eclipse of the midnight sun and the midday moon

At least
It used to be.
For the sun and the moon shared a love so strong that even destiny can't keep them apart for so long.

But even an eclipse has to end.
Amate piel desnuda
amate consternada
constelacion comandada
con sueños de hada.

Amate cebollita morada
que lloras bajo la almohada
no le temas a la parvada
vigilante atrapada.

Amate cristal censurado
de claro destello amado
corazon de candado
que sangra azul fluido.

Amate sensual florida
que escupe en la herida
flama candente herrada
sin tierra, sin ojos, sin nada.
Take  my  hand,  take  my  pain 
let's  not  make  this  conversation 
behind  the  mountain  of  the  fame 

Digital  life,  a  settlement, 
a  heart  made  from  metal 
you  got to  choose  it  better 
Which account  do  you  want, 
how  many  followers  do you  have?

You  should  put  the  screen  down, 
give  a break  while  time  runs 
follow  the  life  that  you  are  yearning 
on  the  screen,  you  are  only  losing

It's raining today
Everyone stands
With their black umbrellas
Opened wide
To catch the sky

Soft music played
Inside the funeral home
It echoes in their ears
Old lyrics scattered
To the beat of the rain

The ceremony was short
The coffin was not open
There were no deformities
But the mother couldn't bear
To see the body

The tombstone is small
Simply carved
No one quite knew what to say
So all it reads is
Gone but never forgotten

That's funny
Considering who I was
I always prepared mental images of the flowers there would be, and I think I have a list of songs to play around here somewhere. None of that will happen.
Thought, I had lost me
when I hadn't got this goal.

Maybe a part of me had become
somebody that I had needed to
meet too.

It was sentimental although
they said: "you won't break through!"

There were sharp stones on the track,
thorns could bleed me really bad.

Some said walk away, some said
don't even hesitate in this room.

I got pretty occupied with the world,
more than I need, (more than we need).

There is no turn backwards now
because all we can have is now.

How precious is 'now' that you won't
have this moment in another 'now'.

Why are you wasting your tears while you
can evaluate these golden hours to shine?

Therefore you don't have to impress or prove
anything to them, Some will still be 'wow!'

The moment will end, will stay in the past,
another "now" will come till every "now" of you ends.

Now is remarkably precious, use it wisely;
before it gets late to complete all your amends.

Don't be afraid to die because 'death' isn't disappearing
it's changing your vehicle to get to another land.

Don't rush your life to become old or get what you want;
the process is where you can still decide.

Decide what you want to add to your vehicle
the lands you can live forever, heaven or hell.

If you use your days flawlessly in the best,
you may have better 'now's in heaven forever.
