LEAVE YOUR CRYSTALS Crystals of your absence riddled my voice, that spreads at night by the icy desert of my bedroom. -I want to be an angel and I am wolf. I would like to be luminously yours and 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 memory Suddenly, I write about me, About the people, As a tragic game No letters alone, I mix the colors, The loves, The urban people The violent words And instead of hatred linger Or to the street, I write to whatever happens.

- Human mostly, only tell half-truths or whole lies - Best of forgetfulness is the memory... -I feel that I want one who can not love me. - I would like to be the fire that stoked your ashes I would be called a fire to your heart I would like to be the owner of your soul and you were the owner of my love.
