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...

Forever and ever...

Time has passed

feelings have changed

but one thing that hasn't change is the love

as long as my heart keeps beating

I will always love you

and care about you

like I always have and

like I always will

you'll never be alone

whenever you feel lonely

look at the sky and I will be there for you

whenever you want a kiss

let the wind blow your hair

and as the wind caresses your face

it will be me kissing your soft skin

whenever you're feeling sad

look at the sky and think

that the sun is jealous of you

because with your beautiful smile

you can outshine the morning star

whenver you want a hug

look at the sky count the stars

and in every one of those stars there

would be a hug from me to you

and no one else

because you are special

like no one else

unique in every way

there is no one like you

and there never will be

so my words for you

keep on being who you are

and shine on

like the star that you are

Maybe

Maybe it was your eyes

Maybe it was your hands

Maybe it was your soul

Maybe it was your lips

Or maybe it was the way you said my name

I don’t know what it was

but little by little

you turned my world upside down

I wasn't looking for love but I found it

It called to my door when I least expected it

It’s you, your personality, everything

that has made a huge difference in my life

I'm a better person because of you

The sun shines brighter

The birds fly higher

Skies are clearer

and it is all because of you

Maybe it was meant to be

Maybe the planets aligned that day

Maybe it was destiny

Maybe it was coincidence

I don’t know what it was

but what I do know is that

I'm thankful to life

for putting me in the right place

at the right time

and that I was able to meet

someone as wonderful as you

I don't know what the future holds for you

I dont know what it holds for me

and frankly I dont want to know

after all I do love surprises

but I do hope, that no matter

how many hours, days, months or years go by

that our lives will always be intertwined

one way or another

Land of Fairytales

Tell me

How does it feel?

To have such beautiful eyes

Anyone could get lost in them just like I did

The eyes are the windows to the soul

I've seen beyond the superficial

and I was mesmerized by what I found

Such a beautiful person inside and out

If the world went dark I wouldn't be scared

I'd had your eyes and your smile to guide me

Just like a north star in the midnight sky

I like the way you smile

the way you laugh

the way you make me feel

your facial expressions

I like your attitude

The way you carry yourself

And so much more

When I’m with you

Time stops but at the

same time goes faster

It’s a weird feeling

I think father time might

be pulling a prank on us

When I see you I feel like a kid again

I think about all those fairytales

I once read and heard about

And you’re like those princesses in those stories

Sleepy like Sleeping Beauty

Hard working like Cinderella

And beautiful like Belle

Maybe you’re waiting, looking

For your prince charming

The one that will sweep you off your feet

I’m no prince charming

Maybe at best I’m that frog that

Once kissed turns into a prince

I don’t know

What I do know is that you

make me feel different

in a way that could not easily

be explained with words

and I would like you to be

a part of my life

to take a crazy and hopefully

beautiful ride with me

and I ask you

would you take my hand

and fly away with me?

Still on my Mind

It's been so long since I last saw you
I don't know if you still look the same
I never forget you, or stop thinking about you
Because you're always on my mind
Even though I don't carry a picture in my wallet
There is and image of you that is embedded in my brain
and tattooed to my heart

But, maybe it is that time
the time that I had dreaded for so long
The moment when I let you go
The moment that I knew would come
but I was hoping would never actually get here

I've tried many times
I told myself that you didn't matter
That it was over
That you would always be just a wonderful memory
and nothing more
But the truth is, that when it comes time
to push delete button and erase you from my mind
my heart won't allow it

It doesn't matter how many times I said it is over
my heart always overrules my mind
and I guess I'm not strong enough to leave you behind
I guess deep down, there is always hope
and hope is what makes us strong
it is what we fight with when all else is gone

So I guess I will keep going
like a friend once told me
"stay on this road, go as far as you can,
even if it takes you on a dead end"
Because you leave and you learn
and things will always happen for a reason

A reason that we might not understand at the moment
but life goes on
and everything you learn will someday be worth it
Worth every little tear you ever shed
Because, life's lesson is not at its end, it's in the journey.

Light up my Sky

I look up at the sky
trying to see the stars
It's almost impossible
living in a city so polluted
with light, trash and chemicals
flying around the night sky
as hard as it might be I see one
only one, the most beautiful star
the one that fights against human's selfish actions
and decides to show us her majestic beauty
this one star reminds me of you

yes it reminds me of you
you're just like her
she's just like you
brighter than the moon
brighter than the sun
but not as bright as you

This star is so strong
even when it rains
when skies are turning black
even through thick clouds
she still shines
nothing can move her away
nothing can hold her back
but she's all alone
I wish I could be a star as well
maybe I could keep her company
tell her that she’s not alone
that she can count on me

I think she's giving me a sign
I know you are that star
your eyes are so bright
like that lonely star in the sky
I think I might be right
so I ask you can I be there
and light up the sky with you?
