The Flame


It could forever be clouded;
In an instant the sea could become dry;
The earth's axis may break
like a weak crystal.
Anything could happen!
Death may cover me with its funereal cape;
But the flame of my love for you
can never be extinguished.

The one that got Away


Maybe someday I will look back and tell this tale
of a precious girl the most beautiful person you can imagine
breath-taking, pretty inside and out
this one girl is the one that got away.

I should have known from the beginning
things like that don’t happen in real life only in fairy tales
The princess doesn’t go for the frog
she’s always waiting for the prince to sweep her off her feet

 And it’s true what they say
nice guys always finish last
but I rather finish last than pretend being someone that I’m not
And so I’m still
here thinking about the one that got way…

Maybe I never said what she wanted to hear
maybe I said something wrong
All I know is that in her eyes it was never meant to be

The one that got away will always have a special place
I did everything I could, things that I said I never would
but nothing seemed to change her mind.

At least I could look back days, months or years from now
and say that I tried, I really, really tried
but I just couldn’t make it work
 I don’t regret anything I said
or anything that I did, I meant every single word
it still didn’t matter she still got away.

Maybe someday I will tell my kids not to give up
to keep trying, to reach for the stars
maybe their dream will come true
even if mine didn’t

I will tell them to love like if there was no tomorrow
to live like if it was their last day
and so when they are older
they will not wonder of the past
and the things that could of been
regretting things that they didn’t do
and think about the one that got away just like me.

Because I will always remember that imperfectly perfect girl that got away…

Aroma de un Sueño

Llegaste a mi entre sueños
Un olor conocido pero
Perfume que no puedo nombrar
No pude ver tu rostro
Pero no hay duda eras tu
Estuviste en mis sueños
Ese aroma es inconfundible
Inmediatamente me transporta
A esos días de verano
Cuando paseamos por las calles del pueblo
Tomando un refresco muy elado
Para matar el calor
Como olvidar esas noches de julio
Sentados bajo la luz de la luna
Admirandola a través de tus ojos hermosos
Y es que muchas cosas me recuerdan a ti
Una canción, una palabra, o un simple olor
Aunque sólo sea el aroma de un sueño.

Loneliness

Sometimes loneliness is the one and only companion
the one that no matter what happens
will always be there
oh such irony is this


The one thing we dread the most
is the one thing you can be sure will be there for you
because no matter how fast you move forward in life
whenever there is a low point in your life


Loneliness won't be that far behind

For your sake

I wish there was a moment
just a slight moment
in which you would realize
what I feel for you

you see there might be many
but none like me
I'm not being arrogant
but I know who I am

I know that you will never
have someone better than me
I just hope that someday you realize that
before it is too late

I'm a patient man
but I can't wait forever
I'm trying to find my own happiness
and your worth waiting for
but not for a lifetime

I'm hopeful that you'll soon realize
what I have to offer
and I hope for your sake
that it'll be sooner rather than later

What else can I say

I was sad
I had nothing to look forward
History repeats itself
The memories that we built
Keep hunting me

There is always that one moment
where everything we had seems to fade away
And I'm free
but only for a moment
you see, I can't get far from all this
because deep down I know I want it

Truth is my heart is chained to you
and I can't break free
I will always be attached to you
Look what you've done to me

Because I try to forget you
and there comes the time when I realize
I held you up so high
that maybe you couldn't live up to my own hype

but it only takes one second
one moment
one word
one small gesture
and I end up right at your feet again...

Here we go Again

So many times I have told my self that it is over
That seeing you with someone else didn't bother me
That knowing that you were thinking about him was fine
But the truth is it isn't, I'm not fine
I hate it, because I know that we can be much more...

The truth is often times I can't do anything without thinking of you
and that's why it is harder to let you go
Going to sleep is hard because all I do is think of you
When I wake up things are not much different
because my first thought is always of you

Call me arrogant, conceited or cocky
whatever name you want
whichever one you prefer
but in my heart and in my mind
I know, that no one would treat you the way I would
and I think you know
That I'm the best you'd ever have

Now I'm lost
I don't know what to say
or what to do
Anything, to make you see me in a different light
Hoping that someday, somehow I'd get that chance
that opportunity, to show you who I am

Because no matter how hard I try
no matter what I do
Trying not to love you... Only makes me love you more...
