Applause*

And I'd like to give a big round of applause to all the women in my life...

... For bringing me back to reality just when I had a fantasy about they were not that bad' after all."

That, I believe in.

Do you believe in love at first sight?
As for me, I don't know....
But that feeling before a first date,
when you just know there is something special about her.
That, I believe in.
How you can't wait for her to arrive.
How you pay attention to every little detail.
That, I believe in.

I believe in it because it is gently surrounded by this comforting aura of anticipation.

I have been here before... Same place, same time... 5 Years ago.
And there she was, I took one look at her eyes.
And there is was... I was mesmerized.
It's simple. But sometimes, that's really all it takes.
I'm not mad at her ...How could I?
I shouldn't even be disappointed.

So, do I believe in love at first sight? No.
But taking chances, That I believe in.
Closing your eyes and jumping off. That, I believe in.

All of it. THAT, I believe in.

I gave it a try and I'm glad I did. If I didn't try,
who knows... Maybe she would be looking for me,
But I won't be there.

Now, at least I have peace of mind.

"Despues de tantos -Te Extraño- finalmente nos perdemos en nuestro olvido."

The Man In The Mirror

If you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that man has to say

For it isn't a man's father, mother or wife
Whose judgement upon him must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in his life
Is the man staring back from the glass

He's the fellow to please, never mind the rest
For he's with you clear up to the end
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend


You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass
But your final reward wil be heartache and tears
If you've cheated the man in the glass.



-- A convict; found on the walls of his cell.

Devuélveme los días.

Congelo el sentir, y comparto mi silencio con estas palabras.

No sé cuando fue que tu pelo me cautivó, ni cual de tus pestanas hipnotizó mi mirada y tiño el mundo de colores que me ligan a ti.

No sé en qué momento deje de ser mío y fui tuyo, cada día mas.

Aun recuerdo los días que te volví a ver, días cargados de duda y incertidumbre, días llenos de emoción y recuerdos.

Solo te pido una cosa:

Devuélveme los días…

Devuelve los días donde los lápices me recuerdan a ti y me atrapan a recordarte entre notitas y frases que intentan describir como te observaba, semi-oculto, semi entregado y semi-colgado.

Devuélveme los días llenos de primeras veces, sonrisas y felicidades.

Los días cargados de momentos inolvidables, de decisiones importantes y de riesgos que nos hicieron ser lo que un día fuimos y ya nunca seremos.

Devuélveme los días donde quería regalarte una estrella por cada sonrisa que dibujabas en mi corazón, devuélveme el día donde me adueñe de la luna solo para hacerla tuya por un breve instante.

Mas que todo, devuélveme los días donde todo fue cuestión de tiempo, los días de cartas a terceros y esos días donde hacer absolutamente nada contigo significaba absolutamente todo para mí.

Devuélvemelos ya que luego no me quedaran más que recuerdos en el estómago, quizás se sientan como mariposas como aquel primer día o quizás sean una tortura de tinta china.

…

…

…

…

A quien engaño? Son tuyos…. Estos días son mi regalo de despedida, guárdalos, te los mereces, porque siempre fuiste y serás la princesa que se robo mi corazón y se volvió la razón de todos los días querer ser alguien mejor.

Hasta luego.

Daniel.

You

Lying

Sack

Of

Shit...

Black and White.

I can't run anymore,
I fall before you,
Here I am,
I have nothing left,
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am,
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it,
I give up,
You're my only strength,
I can't go on,
Without you,
Anymore,
I wont be Happy
Ever again.

...Derailed

Derailed
...We failed to keep our love on course
Now we lost what was left of any chance that we had
What a way to go out.


Derailed
...I'm afraid I failed to keep you by my side
The mistakes we made will keep us drifting farther apart
What a way to go out.



""Y Aquí acabo una vez mas en la soledad de un rincón; en el mar de un naufragio que se rinde a la tempestad. Tempestad de incomprensión de ausencias y de realidades, que se alejan mientras se consumen los deseos en las puntas de mis dedos. Ya no se que pensar, ya no se que instantes atesorar, ya no se que rincones reconocer."
