  • Where I hide


    One good thing about living in a city like São Paulo, is that everything is practical. Everything´s near, I dont even need to go far for anything I may want.  I got subway, bus terminal, drugstores, markets, malls, gym, restaurants, bars, schools and all sorts of facilities close to me. I got nature as well, as the part of the city where I live in is surrounded by  Cantareira ridge. What I actually i dont have is time to unwind and recollect my energy. I love doing that by traveling! And it feels even greater when I´m able to do so with friends. I have got some special souls here. There´s my friend Chrysane who has recently moved to a city close to here. She is not that far, but she manages to live in a very nice place. It is a farm, and a pleasant place too. I must say she and her family are special enough to make their home even more special. There are some pics of her place and its surroundings… Already one of my favorite places to hide…


                        


     


     a closer look at her home:



    Sharing…

  • The door was closed
    And there she stood
    So uncomposed
    Waiting to see what could

    Be done to make life more appealing
    And so she walked away from the door
    Thinking of the worthlessness of her dealings
    And fell to the floor

    Silently she clutched her blanket
    Why, why, why am I here?
    She asked feeling as if she were in a straightjacket
    And all of her fears were so near

    So near they suffocated her
    And there she repose
    Lifeless she seemed, in a weeping blur
    Clutching to the thorns of a rose

    Holding onto that which was dear
    Only to wait to slip again
    But this time life seemed so clear
    She could see the prison walls then

    Surrounding her soul like a fortress
    But those walls appeared weak
    And couldn’t contain such a mess
    Then she began to seek

    Looking for the rationality
    Looking for anything to facilitate
    Maybe it will give her possitive mentallity
    Or maybe the walls will crash down beautifully and great.




  • cold rush of an october breeze
    settles on unsettling seas
    certanty is not clearly certainas
    it unvails falls beautiful curtain

    the leaves fall gracefully to forest floors
    Helplessly delicate wisping through moores
    beautiful angels dance through the trees
    manipulating all the falling leaves

    There are no more emerald greens
    And cold rainwater washes the leaves
    Warm breezes gone with the geese
    South for the winter to rest at peace

    Fall brings that grim reaper
    Unsettling all those emotions that were hidden deeper
    Causing its disease
    to spread among the trees

    Cold and rushing are the breezes
    Tender and warm have left the seasons
    Waiting patiently for the end
    Could it bring me to long for the dead.


     


    Such things we write when thinking of life in a distant land…Is it like painting? What if I painted those words? Would it bring me any closer to the words I wrote? Would it bring me any closer somehow? Is the poet really a liar? Is the artist a liar? I wonder…
