Teaser

So, you play with my mind and tempt me with your love

only to pull back and dissapear..

How cruel, these games and I fall for them each time, thinking you have changed

But no, you are the same, a coward in love matters, afraid of commitment and sincerity

Much easier for you to flirt and tease, than to love and trust

And here again I wonder will the next time be for real..?

Sweet smile

The first time I saw you... you gave me a sweet smile and even though we did not say,

I felt you were telling me, you wanted me...

Each time we saw since then, I felt the same unspoken message in your smile..

you wanted me...

Last night we spoke, and again your sweet smile said to me what your lips did not..

Your hands touched me softly, I wanted to hold you, but I kept still...

I am anticipating the moment when you and I decide it is time...

when our lips will tell the words we want to say..

I know that when we give our love without words ,all I will need is your sweet smile..

Standing in the rain

Outside, looking at the pines under the rain that gently falls, thinking of you...

in the mist a lonely hummingbird flies around me curiously..

I stand alone under the gray clouds that move towards your hometown..

distant thunder reaches me and I see the glow of lightning over the hills that separate us..

The wind caresses my hair and the raindrops mix with my tears...

are you in the rain that kisses my lips and the wind that embraces me?

How I miss you..love.

I have searched for so long, that when a little of it I have found, I have cherished every moment.. and died a little when it was gone...
Solitude finds me, my old friend always near, to talk to you is easy, to cry with you innate..
here once more, looking into the distance, feeling this emptiness, this yearning...
I have reached the golden years and I still have not found those eyes I have been seeking
and thought once I found..
Solitude, my old friend I am sure you know him, bring him to me, guide his gaze, carry him in your tender arms and let me fall into his...

Sisters

Like this, holding hands facing the sun, smiling, united...

Our hair free in the wind gazing a wonderful horizon....

Advancing joyfully, confident, supporting each other...

magical creatures, all different all beautiful, all special, filled with tenderness...

Our voices a melody, our hands a chain, sisters forever, daughters of mother nature,

nieces of Pachamama, brides of the sun...

Grandmothers, mothers, aunts, daughters, all capable, all queens, let's go ahead,

filled with light to spread our sweetness, to share our hearts.

Silent witness

(To Frank)

Sailing by your side under the warm sun of the afternoon, laughing and carefree...

I let you enter my heart, looking into your blue eyes, caressing your curly hair...

I kissed your lips and dreamed in your arms...

The stars were silent witness to the tenderness we felt, the magic we created and the closeness we gave...

Now the sun shines and you are not here, my heart aches for the truth..

I wish I was like the sand kissed by your tide...

But the waves took you away to kiss another sand

Shimmering Lights

Together you and I like a dreamed so many times, gliding softly over the waves ...

pushed by the gentle afternoon wind ...

Shimmering lights you and I, following the sparkling reflection of the sun..

Your arms around me, your warmth behind me...

the wind fills the sails and I rest my head on your shoulder...

I navigate following the sunny trail and your voice softly encourages me...

Sunset arrives and the harbor lits....

you call me to your side and I sit next to you, as nana's blanket covers our shivering bodies..

The starry sky, the sound of the distant seals, we kiss as we rock gently in the night,,,
