Running away
praying peace and love
that I can’t hear above the need
such a loud cacophony

Running away
burning promises
Others greed that came
decievingly

Running away
Turn up a song
of my unanswered wants
all i hear is others symphony

Seeking a runner’s high
Silently heard
In complete
curiosity

Running away
Nowhere seems like
Everywhere or just the place
without mundanity

Running away
Taking a slide
Leaving my life
Temporarily

Praying your love
Giving you mine
Like the gray stoned road
And not the broken dream

As I looked around the new teachers, I was kind impressed with the bunch. Some have wounds that aren’t ready to heal. Others left their IT career behind the desk coding to explore the world and some are fresh out of college and just want to party. My friend looked at me and said, “My grandmother and mother have lived within walking distance all their life and it’s been that way for generations. I was tired of doing the same thing.” Above, more market scenes, below, motion photography from a taxi…from pretty in pink to coming from left-field, what-the? abstract: I love Asia.

My chemical romance
watches me write
makes me remember
everything
I’ve been wanting to forget

Mary go round
up and down this hill
my autumn is my house
and my heart is a fill

Every boy I loved has a sandy heart
watch out! Here comes the wind
Now my drink is sour
a broken dream tastes so tart

In the purgatory of customs
My devil is in black and white
And my angel wears a red tie
I can’t speak or the dam will peak
Every confession gets sealed
between the stamp and me

–what beautiful skin— she says
-hiding the implosion that’s held within-
I say
–Every boy I loved has a sandy heart

Sacred is the feeling
of a bitter good to have you
sorry I can’t keep you here,
Too bad that I can’t have you here

I miss your pink granite bed
I miss my flower orange glow
Flying down your corridor
Watch me as I’m out your front door

Bless me as I sing out the front door
Watch me as I’m out your front door

For Hui (my car’s name), Texas, and the teachers of the broken dreams.

Todo lo que quieres, cuando tu quieres

No me digas, lo que tu quieras
Cuando yo te busco tu me esquivas por los lados

No me digas, que tú me quieres,
Vete de mi lado yo de ti ya nada quiero

No me llames riendo y con excusa
Borro las memorias, difícil el pasado

No repitas lo que tu veas
Eres marioneta de tul tela, transparente

Inculpable, miserable
Todo lo que quieres

Me atas en nudos, inseguridad tan profunda (Chorus)
Me matas en dudas, perjuicios y burlas
Yo soy mi propia fuerza, Basta ya….!

No me digas, que tú me quieres
Porque la diferencia, cuando ayer no te importaba

No me busques en tiempos de sequía
secos mis anhelos, otro clavo me lo quita

No empieces porque yo termino
Idiota la noción que mañana estoy contigo

(Sorry, a little old school Metalica inspired song in Spanish)

Estoy loca, enamorada
Juntos estaremos
Hasta el infinito

Yo, Yo sin ti no vivo
Tu me haces falta
Eres mi amorcito

Co…Como enumerar
Como recontar,
Decirle a todo el mundo
Lo que significas,

1, 2, 3, 4! (chorus)
Como dejarte ver por dentro
Todo este amor de que yo siento
Para ti, todito para ti

Cuento con ti en frentes fríos
Somos distintos individuos,
Así es, mi calorcito

Tú me dejas y yo te dejo
Tú me besas y yo te beso
Yo te llamo y tú contestas
Tú me invitas, y yo te acepto

Es un baile de una pareja
Una chanza a la ruleta
A empezar, contigo continuar

Uhhh…Una y otra vez 2
Tú aquí conmigo (chorus)

No..No todo es de gala o de papel
Uhh…Es como ruleta o ajedrez
Por buenas o malas
Por ti yo, persistiré!

Woman in darkness
incessant confessions
that scream to a void:
Escucha tù voz!
Destapa tus ojos!
Vive esta vida!

Adoración que tu eres
Escucho mares
que derraman de ti!
Ironía del mundo,
plenitud de tu ser
buscado una luz
Cuándo eres un faro
acopando galaxias

Take out your light
Speak out your strength
Seek out your soul
And liberate your Love
Baila morena, baila!
Y saca tu sol

add to del.icio.us

Adivina todo sobre de mi

Que como, que tanto
Que talla, que largo
Que hondo, y dulces
Susurran mis besos
Sobre ti (Chorus)

Es que hombre no sabes
Las delicias que me atraes
Enloquecerte
Es mi poder

han habido tantas noches
de demonios y angelitos
que se alegraron por pensarte
aunque duermen sin tocarte

Eres mi lluvia
Mi adoración
Mi paz en silencio
Mi gusto y mi sabor
Me tienes y me quieres
Adivina a quien quiero yo
