Vida

É necessário abrir os olhos e perceber que as coisas boas estão dentro de nós, onde os sentimentos não precisam de motivos nem os desejos de razão. O importante é aproveitar o momento e aprender sua duração, pois a vida está nos olhos de quem saber ver.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Die alone

I woke up this morning with a funny taste in my head.
Spackled some butter over my whole grain bread.
Something tastes different, maybe it's my tongue.
Something tastes different, suddenly I'm not so young.

I'm just a stranger, even to myself.
A re-arranger of the proverbial bookshelf.
Don't be a fool girl, tell him you love him.
Don't be a fool girl, you're not above him.

I never thought I could love anyone but myself.
Now I know I can't love anyone but you.
You make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Maybe I won't die alone.

Kiss the boys as they walk by, call me their baby.
But little do they know, I'm just a maybe.
Maybe my baby will be the one to leave me sore.
Maybe my baby will settle the score.

What have I become?
Something soft and really quite dumb.
Because I've fallen, oh, 'cuz I've fall-fallen, oh 'cuz I've fall-fall-fallen
So far away from the place where I started from.

I never thought I could love anyone,
...
But you make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Ingrid Michaelson

Há amores assim...

Há amores assim
Que nunca têm início
Muito menos têm fim
Na esquina de uma rua
Ou num banco de jardim
Quando menos esperamos
Há amores assim

Não demores tanto assim
Enquanto espero o céu azul
Cai a chuva sobre mim
Não me importo com mais nada
Se és direito ou o avesso
Se tu fores o meu final
Eu serei o teu começo

Não vou ganhar
Nem perder
Nem me lamentar
Estou pronta a saltar
De cabeça contra o mar

Não vou medir
Nem julgar
Eu quero arriscar
Tenho encontro marcado
Sem tempo nem lugar

Je t’aime j’adore
Um amor nunca se escolhe
Mas sei que vais reparar em mim
Yo te quiero tanto
E converso com o meu santo
Eu rezo e até peço em latim

Quando te encontrar sei que tudo se iluminará
Reconhecerei em ti meu amor, a minha eternidade
É que na verdade a saudade já me invade
Mesmo antes de te alcançar
É a sede que me mata
Ao sentir o rio abraçar o mar

Sem lágrima caída
Sou dona da minha vida
Sem nada mais nada
De bem com a vida
Donna Maria

Just living my head

Those who are dead are not dead
They’re just living my head
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well

Time is so short and I’m sure
There must be something more
...
You thought you might be a ghost
You didn’t get to heaven but you made it close
...
Coldplay

Moratorium

I've never been this accountable-less and within
I've never known focuslessness on any form
I've never had this lack of ache for dalliance
To let go and let god in ways I have never even imagined

I declare a moratorium on things relationship
I declare a respite from the toils of liaison
I do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement
I declare a full time out from all things commitment

I've never let my grasp soften fingers like this
I've never been careless otherless like autonomy's twin
...
Ah to breathe
Stop looking outside
stop searching in corners of rooms
Not my business or timing

I've never known freedom from intertwining
I start again this time for keeps in my skin I'm residing
...
Alanis Morissette

I'm yours...

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
...
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And It's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved
...
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
My breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what i be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
...
No please, don't hesitate
no more, no more
It cannot wait
The sky is your's!
Jason Marz

Quando...

"Quando o amor te fizer sinal, segue-o; ainda que os seus caminhos sejam duros e escarpados. E quando as suas asas te envolverem, entrega-te; ainda que a espada escondida na sua plumagem te possa ferir."
Khali Gibran
