WITH A SMILE

The minimum. 
Shards of cynicism
we're born with. 

A cut is a lesion
we close our eyes
it doesn't seem big
but it hurts much more. 

Forty three cuts our body has
amongst thousands of little stings
our head denies it, 
but the body can't stop the blood. 

Funny and sad it will be, 
cynics the world call us
when we slice our neck 
and remain numb
 

I pressume lack of understanding
we may not know it
but our head is trying very hard
to go far and die with a smile.

WHAT IF

What if if we fall in love?
We lose away all our senses
I come home after a long day and it gets better by the glimpse of your smile.

Who cares if by any chance I forget life
but I remember that Ice-Cream is your favourite dessert.

What is it to the world if you disappear for a while
when my lips caress your neck.

What if after tumbling round and round between a yes and a no (that nobody gives but ourselves) we take the leap and lean in for a kiss.

What if in shame I present my nude self to you and you clothe me with your touch and love.

What if I ditch my friends to see you smile and get lost in the summer of your eyes.

No problem will arise of adoring you day and night, body and soul. Loving you here, now and tomorrow.

No concern to the world if before leaving we ask ourselves if it’s a better decision to stay here forever.

No one will care when I start to get annoyed by your insistence on been in the same place.

No harm is done if I lie to you to keep you mildly happy.

What if we turn our trust into jealousy and desire nothing but hell to each other.

What if after years we get disgusted at the thought of being apart but cannot bear to be together.

It is nothing to society if you manipulate me with your tears while I cry to you with my indifference.

No good or bad will be done if you stop singing to me and I quit writing to you.

Not a soul will care if after a year our love turns into hatred and the sparkle in your eyes ceases to be the reason of my existence.

Earth will keep turning even if we violently exhume our most terrible fears by hurting each other.

My blood in your hands, your blood in mine. Teeth, words, knuckles, guns.

Life will continue to grow when you’ve destroyed my soul and I’ve diminished your personality.

It will happen without us. Life is perfection with your heart and mine in a same place or apart.

So, if no tragedy but the one we desire persists, why should stop our lives?

Why should you keep your voice from my head?

Why should I keep my touch from your hand?

The world won’t cease to exist.

If our love begins or never desists.

So this I must insist:
Let our love be and our hearts fall so hard
that the world would wish it could stop.

TENDER GOODBYES

With the come of Spring
also begin the ends

A constant elongation
a stretch of hands
a common mistake
that takes love for adoration

Try to win your attention
those wild seconds you lend me
through your letters, your fingers
and that voice by the shore.

All at one moment
seems so magical, so tragic
I only think one thought:
that the embrace should happen
in the face of the wildfire.

But it disappears and fades,
it leaves while I despair.
I try to open that window again
while I drink that sweet poison of yours.

I fall, I fall until I need you
Need not to see you go
but stay and share,
find an excuse, find a time
and find a place at last.

But no, as the dream came
the jump avoided
the unknown rested where it is
You leave with notice,

Instead of being a dream
what it has always been about
it is a friendly face, a disgrace
that leaves me cherishing
your tender goodbyes.
