Morning Light

Purple dust
Caressed by wind
Touched by skin
Gift of the skies
To all, not only mine.
All is never only mine
No indication
That it could be otherwise.
All that is mine,
Is inevitably yours.

The Wait

My chest rises,
A gentle blow from leaves.
Never abandons me…
Never abandons me…
No hate can undo me…
No hate can undo me…
Because I have you,
Beautiful tree.
Beautiful soul.
The beauty in me.

Visible Future

I ran
From my cemented chair.
I refused to stop
And became almost invisible.
The ones playing in the back,
Can barely see me now.
Since I saw what was to come,
I decided to turn around
And grab your hand.

One of Two

It practiced once
And you followed twice
A slave to it you are
Serve with all your might
That's dispensed to your soul
Serve the angel that never served you
Let it have its fun…
To then be saved by the light you shun.

Souls

Low souls don't even
Touch me
Their leader…
I laughed at it
High souls
Guided me
But not even them
Come anymore
It's just me
And God.
The ones living
Who try
To escape light
Can't undo me.
They undo only
Themselves.

In Love With You

I thought I was in love before.
I thought I had met love before.
I thought...
Thinking can be deceiving
When the heart is not
In the right place.
With you,
I didn't have to think.
My heart whispered to me
Your beautiful name.

Grey Sale

Soul for Sale!
Vagina dry
Face pale.
Come take a piece
Come feed your hunger
Come.
Whoever has the most
Green paper in hand
I'll give as much as
My God can stand.
I got it for free
From birth
And now I sell it
Like sheep
Sell fur.

Singular

Carrying the light
In darkness
Until my last day.
Both the truth
And the lie
Living…
But I see now
That I can only live
For me.
The ones who choose
The comfort lies bring,
Will never use their lives
For change.
I can count on my will
Only.

Inside The Cube

The noises on top…
The false judgment imposed…
I will never stop…
Never stop…
The body is an illusion…
And death is rebirth.
You do not see,
And believe you cannot be taught how…
That is a lie…
A lie…
But I am tired now…
And need sleep.

A Secret

Is a thought kept from.
It blooms only in cowards.
Who need to...
Grow a tree of pears...
And pick a pair.

I am now anew.
Since I met the me in you.
I am in love not with an idea
Or the lack of one...
I am in love with a soul.
Beautiful soul...
We will meet again soon.
