El final de una etapa
The end,
The beginning of a new journey
un camino
A un mundo extranjero
Un deseo, un sueño
A dream
Haciendo mi propio path
un camino
rostros nuevos , new failures
historias nuevas , new experiences
a sequel to my story, con hojas rotas
y mojadas
INMIGRACION
La memoria es un salto
entre continentes
crossing invisible borders
swimming in the rios
corriendo debajo del sol
La memoria es los abuelitos
ancestors cooking arroz y frijoles,
flan, driving through for hamburgers,
popcorn, sipping on horchata
Basilica
No todo lo que brilla es oro
not all rainbows and butterflies,
Clarita y sus cien años
Ruben y sus Tacos del Camino Real
El rancho
Midnight movies
Quiero a quien me quiera
It’s been a long day, without you my friend
Mexicanos al grito de guerra
Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light
Tepechitlan, Jerecuaro, Guanajuato
Long Beach, Argentine, KCK,
Chihuahua,
A Distance Between Us
El puente, the bridge.
Three Little Pigs en casa, at home,
don't step out marranitos,
la llorona te va a llevar
Memory is a leap
between continents
Cruzando fronteras invisibles,
Nadando en los rivers
Running under the sun
Born in different places
Pero las mismas intenciones

I grow up in a place that has a lot of blood
Every where you walk by is a hole of blood
bombs everywhere , gunfire sound, people head's
flying in the ear.
Can't see anything because of the dark ear that flow by.
Lost in the wonderland of darkness.
Don't know the direction in her country
people bother her , judge her and laugh at her .
All because she didn't know what's going on .
She went to school only for 5 years , then she quit school ,
because of the killing in her country and in front of her eyes .
Aylin lefted her country behind and moved on to U.S.A
to have an adication , her dream is to be a soccer player .
Aylin went to school called fugees Academy , witch is soccer program
she's a soccer player but she's fighting for her dream to come true one day :)
