IF I CUT A FLOWER

If I cut a flower

A Butterfly would tremble

If I catch a butterfly

A hummingbird would turn away

If a hummingbird leaves

The air would change direction

If the air moves in the opposite way

Sound waves wouldn’t reach my receiver

My only communication would change time

From eight hours to eight days

My hearth would start beating faster

And I would run out of time

To give the love of my life

That beautiful flower I would have for him

That’s why I won’t touch the flower

That’s why I will watch the butterfly go away

That’s why the hummingbird will fly still on the same spot

And the air won’t change directions

I will stay still

I will catch another glimpse for a moment

Of what a wonderful love awaits for me every day just there

Only eight hours away.

JOURNEY

When does it start

When does it end

At every curb a new street

That ahead of us unfolds

A new unexplored destiny

And to start anew

Once and again

Over and over

Leading us every day to new surprises

Leaving behind a bridge

To get to the next

Thinking that this plan is ours

Making our wishes truth

Reaching for the happiness that awaits us

Right there, and very far

Then once inside the tunnel

Moving on a one way street

We see the light at the end

That never seems to approach

And we keep going

Sometimes so focused on that light

So concentrated in that direction

That we absolutely forget

That right here and right now

In every single moment

There is an opportunity for enjoyment

If we would just slow down a little

Looking at our sides

And see that other souls like ours

Are also reaching for their own dreams

Let's hold hands with one another

Let our energy be the guide

Let our love be the motion of our actions

Let's live our own lives but without separation

Share our dreams in harmony

Reaching for the stars as a family

And travel our journey together.

SOONER OR LATER

The ship is about to sail

We are here, we are there

Heart in one land

Brain in another

Our body sailing

In the middle of the sea

Uprooted from the continent of pain

Traveling to the continent of hope

Navigating an ocean of fear

But there it goes

Against all odds

With salty water underneath

and salty water in my tears

Far I left all my suffering

Sooner I will conquer all the happiness

Sad faces behind showing their wet handkerchiefs

Happy faces ahead with extended arms

And there I go

To a new adventure, to a new experience

Lonely sailor of my own life

Tides of fortune

A sun on the horizon

The same horizon that is waiting for me

Where I am going to arrive

sooner or later.

COLORS OF PASSION

Its fire

Red, orange, yellow incandescent

Red hot liquid running through it

Strawberries juice dripping of thick persian lips

A tempest of feelings over the red sea

Blood in blood like the warriors

Turbulent land of dragons

Sour in the rough corners

Sweet in their intense eternity

And the orange gets stronger

It is yellow, bright yellow

Almost white and then red again

Persistent like a wound that won’t stop bleeding

Red hot liquid running through it

Intense, accelerating

Fascination at first glance

Gaze that will last forever

Red, red and more red

Now completely out of control

When the bodies get together

Just a stare, can’t look away

And then feel, powerful and soft hot pleasure

And when almost there, like fireworks

Red, orange, yellow bright

Red hot liquid running through it

An explosion between the two

Two who adore each other

Red hot liquid running through it

Passion of lovers that is.

TWO YEARS TOO MUCH

Time passes by, very fast to slow

Two years might be an eternity

Two years getting old and dying

Time passes by, very fast to slow

One mirror will reflect dark

One mirror will reflect bright

Time passes by, very fast to slow

My skin getting dryer

Your skin getting softer

Time passes by, very fast to slow

I will be dragging my feet

You will be running ahead

Time passes by, very fast to slow

Two years that is

An eternity to wait

An eternity to die.

DEAR FRIEND

You are there looking, staring at me

I can see your bright dark eyes

Telling me how much you love me, oh good friend

I know you can’t talk, no need too

As you age

I am not only seeing silver in your hair

But I learned how unconditional your love is, oh good friend

I know you, when you smile at me

I know you, when you want to play

And I know, you know me well

All the joy in you when I touch you

And the look in your face when I don’t

Oh, good friend

You cozy, sweet little thing

Tell me what is your secret

How is it that your tail never stops

How you never stop to amaze me

How your patience is so enormous

Please tell me your secret, oh good friend

Find the way to communicate

Let me learn that I don’t need what is missing

Let me learn I have everything I need

Let me learn to be as happy as you are

Because you have me

Teach me to be as happy as you are

Because I have you

You are the joy of my life

The company that follows me everywhere

Oh, dear friend

Teach me the secret of your happiness.

WHEN YOU ARE GONE

I saw you walking away from me

Getting away and away

Little by little

I saw you flying away from me

Disappearing slowly

Little by little

And I tried to hold my breath

To actually go back in time

When we were so happy together

But your image in my mind was also fading

Little by little

And the pain in my heart getting more intense

Little by Little

And every thing was turning blurry

Little by little

And my legs were shaking

And I couldn't move

You were no where to be seeing

And something inside my chest was falling apart

Little by little

The distorted figures around me were moving fast

Pushing me away, and I had to go back

Go back to my mediocre life without you

Go back to live like nothing had happened

Go back and start my healing

Little by little

And the scars will never go away

Over and over I will try to forget you

Over and over I will try to forgive you

And over and over I will ever remember you

And time will put a toll on me

Little by little

My reflected image won't be the same

My smile will be turned backwards, upside down

Like my life without you

And my heart will still be falling apart

Little by little

And it will be the day when inside, finally dry

I will turn my face back

And I will think that there is you, who is approaching again

Little by little

And my heart will accelerate

And my life will feel strange

And I will think that I am smiling again

And then I will close my eyes

To keep that image of you eternally

I will die

Little by little
