POEMS LEAVE YOUR CRYSTALS
Crystals of your absence riddled my voice,that spreads at nightby the icy desert of my bedroom.-I want to be an angel and I am wolf.I would like to be luminously yoursand I am darkly mine.
IN THE CLEAR NIGHTS On clear nights,
I solve the problem of loneliness of being.I invite the moon and with my shadow we are three.
WRITE I write without model
In what comes,I write memorySuddenly,I write about me,About the people,As a tragic gameNo letters alone,I mix the colors,The loves,The urban peopleThe violent wordsAnd instead of hatred lingerOr to the street,I write to whatever happens.
QUOTES
- Human mostly, only tell half-truths or whole lies

-I feel that I want one who can not love me.
- I would like to be the fire that stoked your ashesI would be called a fire to your heartI would like to be the owner of your soul and you werethe owner of my love.
