Old Man Burning

Theres a fire that burns inside a house made of bricks that groan and sigh as they lay atop one another. The windows reflect images of utter discontent much like mirrors during a funeral procession. The doors of every room moan as they swing to let you see whats inside; only crumpled writings, faded photos, broken toys and a dead cat. The paintings that once decorated these rooms fell broken to the floor. Layers of paint peeling off the canvas like Flowers once adorned the window sill. Now their petals lay dried and shriveled up on the filthy carpet In the kitchen the sink is filled with dirty dishes And on the table sits a steak that rotted long ago, filling the room with a pungent stench.

Lloro Por La Luna

En cada noche, Cuando nasce la obscuridad, La luna canta melodias nocturnas. Cuando las escucha el mar, Se siente un deseo doloroso en el fondo de su alma. Suben las olas. Extienden sus manos para acariciar esa cara tan bella y brillante. Pero no son bastantes largos sus brazos. La luna aun se queda retirada Mirando asi a las estrellas. No escucha el llanto de ese cuerpo de agua que se retuerce Por solo una caricia. Ya no aguanta la noche. Parten los primeros rayos del sol. Y el mar, triste y cansado, Se retira al amanecer.
