Decisions Decisions

So many want to drink from the fountain of youth
but if they knew it was spiked with the truth
would they still drink it 
if they knew it was just a thought
would they still think it 
pretend you know what I'm saying
and you use your hands for more than just praying
not to say you shouldn't have faith
just know where your faith lies
and stop putting your faith in lies 
why do you want to believe everything you've been told
by those whose souls have already been sold 
that doesn't make any sense
and since pledging your loyalty 
you've forgotten the fact that you're royalty
and not some mindless drone
who allows others to put them down
or wear their crown
and sit on their throne
but that doesn't sound like you at all 
so would you drink from the foundation of youth
if you knew it was spiked with the truth
you would be less thirsty than you were before
but the truth would make you thirsty for more

Si No Respondes

Cuando no me respondiste 
me sentí un poco triste
ahora tal vez estaba siendo egoísta
pero eso es tu culpa 
no debes ser tan increíble 
me llamo por teléfono
te mando mensajes de texto
y dejo comentarios en tu Facebook
todavía nada 
quizás estás ocupada 
sé que estás ocupada
pero sólo quiero un momento de tu tiempo
un momento de tu tiempo precioso
podemos hablar en español 
em português também
forse un po 'di italiano
or as much English as we want
no me importa el idioma que utilizamos
porque el amor es un idioma universal
así que quizás no necesitamos palabras 
porque si no respondes a mí
está bien 
dejamos que nuestros corazones hablan
y nuestras almas responden

In Sickness And In Haiku

Water can cleanse you,
but when it comes to healing, 
that's where you come in.

Me, Myself, And Sky

They say goodbye is like never again
like the way a loss is never a win
still I triumph even in defeat
I find truth even when there's deceit
but that's just me lying to myself
staring in the mirror crying to myself
trying to convince myself it wasn't my fault
so explain how it all came to a screeching halt
okay maybe it was my fault
I took the blame
hung my head in shame
I'll never be the same
every night
I pray to the sky
keep me in the fight
the sky replies
asking me why
I want to say goodbye
so I try
to explain
that it's all because of pain
and it's all because of fear
then the sky began to clear
it was at that moment that I had a change of heart
saying goodbye wouldn't change my heart

L.O.V.E. Notes: My Beautiful Dream

I just want to be with you
am I wrong for that
put yourself in my position
can you blame me
every time I close my eyes
I see you 
my beautiful dream 
I'm almost afraid to wake up 
the risk is too great 
because I don't want the last time
to be the last time
but sooner or later
I have to wake up
the risk is too great
and I have to know
if you'll ever come true
even though my hopes are high
my expectations are low
because when I close my eyes
I don't see myself
but I do see you 
my beautiful dream 
and sometimes
that's all I need to see

More Than Meets The Haiku

If you aim higher, 
the world around you seems small
when it's really big.

L.O.V.E. Notes: Tu Última Sonrisa

La gente dice que tiene que sonreír más
y así que empezaste a pensar
cuándo fue la última vez que sonreí
porque muy poca gente ve esa parte de mí
eres una de esas personas positivas
que disfruta de las cosas sencillas
pero a veces es difícil para que usted pueda sonreír
a veces creo que no merezco a sonreír
es por eso que no puede recordar
usted no puede recordar su última sonrisa
pero recuerdas la última vez que lloraste
la última vez que sentiste el dolor
y la última vez que sentiste absolutamente nada
para qué sirven estos recuerdos 
si no te acuerdas de sonreír
y así que empezaste a pensar
cuándo fue la última vez que sonreí
porque muy poca gente ve esa parte de mí
suena como necesitas ver tu sonrisa más
por lo que nunca olvidas tu última

<3
