Te Dije (I Told You)

I told you that I loved you,
I thought that was enough.
Te dije que te amaba,
Creí que fue suficiente.
I was wrong, so wrong,
But my heart was yours and no one else´s.
Estaba equivocada, muy equivocada,
Pero mi corazón era tuya y de nadie mas.
I can´t forget you, no matter how hard I try,
You´re in my heart, my skin.
No puedo olvidarte, no importa cuanto lo intento,
Estas en mi corazón, en mi piel.
You left me behind,
Without a goodbye.
Me dejaste atrás,
Sin un adiós.
It´s hard to forget...
What we had.
Esta difícil olvidar...
Lo que tuvimos.
Pictures of you and I,
Memories I treasure.
Retratos de tu y yo,
Recuerdos que aprecio.
Every story has a beginning and an end,
Ours ended in nothing.
Cada historia tiene un principio y final,
La de nosotros termino en nada.


*Inspired by the song "La Bella y La Bestia" by Reik &Morat*

Truth in Love

You want it
Just as much
As I do
There's no denying 
It
As hard as you try
You can't, you won't
Deny it
Me
It's never easy 
To
Let go
Give up control 
Your hand in mine
Too obvious
To be a lie
You can't sweep it under the rug
Delete it like a text message
It's written all over your heart
It covers your skin
Easy was never part of the equation 
Just give in
Say it's all true
Wear it like a badge of honor 
The label of love
Given freely 
Without question
Or is it too much?

Stronger

It's burns
Every time
I see you
I hear your name
A fire builds within me
My soul screams out in anger
You never bothered
To look back
At the disaster
You left behind
I was just 
Rubble 
Left behind 
You never
For a second
Thought
Tried
Said
You were sorry 
There's no remorse
For what you did 
Who you hurt
It was all
Just a game
I was just
Your casualty
But I'm still here
You'll not 
Hurt me
Break me
Ever again
I'm stronger now
More than you'll ever now

Love Joy

Nothing can be more complicated and wonderful
Than what I feel
It pours from the inside out
It's been a while
Since love was on my mind
You've got me all twisted around
But only in the best way
I try to concentrate
But I always wander back to you
You bring back that hope
That it's all worth it
You see into me
And fill me up when I feel empty
When you're not here
I miss you too much
But I don't regret any of it
It's too sweet an emotion
Feeling your hand in mine
There's nothing better
You got me permanently smiling
To the point where I'm silly
But I don't mind at all
Cause I'll be that fool for you

Dangerous Love

You were dangerous
From the first Hello
You had me
You played me
Wrapped me around your fingers
Had me at your 
Beck and call
I went along with it
I longed for you
You were sweeter 
Than candy
I dived into you
Not wanting to come up for air
Stroked ever curve
To memory
I wanted you
I lost my mind
With the words you said
The way your lips glistened
Waiting to be kissed
Calling me 
Pulling me 
Closer to you
More was never enough
Wanted all of you
Teased me
Bit by bit
Never enough time
To savor all of you
You had that magic
Captivated me 
Endlessly
Couldn't you see
I just wanted
Every word 
Every thought
You know what you did
Did it so well
I couldn't say no
Should have known
How you would be
What you'ld do to me
How you'ld make me feel
Your were just too
Dangerous

Ella (Música)

Me arropa
Me da esa ternura
Me da esa calor
La necesito tanto
Sin ella me falta todo
Ella es mi alivio
Cuando las cosas van mal
Cuando las cosas van bien
Allí esta ella a mi lado
Llenando mi corazón 
Cuando tengo la verdad trancando en la boca
Ella me espera con es paciencia
Ella es mi todo
Ella es mi respirar
Me llena de tanta felicidad
Me da esa libertad
Me hace respirar
Ayudándome 
Apollandome
Empujandome 
Amandome 
Es todo y más
No hay palabras suficintes
Es ella
Música

Real

Tell me
Who you are
What you want
What you fell
Deep down
Below the surface 
Show me
The real you
That you keep 
Locked away
I need
To know...
You
The real you
Can I be?
I wanna be
That strength
That shoulder 
That warm embrace
Could you?
Would you?
Do you?
Need me...
I want to
Need to
Understand
Feel
See...
You 
Don't ignore
Evade
Deny
What you 
Feel
What I 
Feel
Take from me
I give to you
Love
Without bounds
It can't be stopped
Contained 
Buried...
Love
Is that everlasting
Undeniable
Undying 
Truth
That is me
That is you 
Love...

Verdades

Seeing
Believing 
Understanding
Feelings 
Emotions
Sensations
What I mean to you
What you mean to me
If it was worth it
The back and forth
The uncertainty of it all
Questioning myself
Questioning my heart
Did I give too much?
Did you give enough?
I pushed aside 
Doubts
Insecurities
Needs
To be with you
To have you
I know now
Feel now
With certainty
That is was never real 
I built it up
Built you up
Left with nothing
Empty
Hurt
Alone
My path is elsewhere
Where you are not
This is the truth
My truth
Without
You

You

I sit here
Pen in hand
Ready
To unload it all
Been on my mind
Its overdue
Let go of it all
The pain
I knew
At first sight
Deep down
We were never meant to be
You kept it from me
The key to who you were...are
You never let it be
Let me in
The nights passed by
Surrounded by shadows
The truth barricaded
I tried
Pleaded
Schemed and plotted
To obtain...procure
You
The real you
But you walked away
To insist would be a mistake
I want so much more
Than a phantom, a fantasy
Maybe it was meant to be
To never know
You

Todo

There's so much
I feel
Want to say
It all bubbles to the surface
I need you
Want you
Its beyond my control
This sensation
Ensnares me
To feel you
Smell you
To be completely
Wrapped
Consumed
In you
All I want
Desire
Crave
See you
Consume you
Give you
Please you
My arms ache
To hold you
Es algo mas de mi
Tengo tantas ganas
de sentirte
Respirarte
Te siento tan junto
A mi
Mi corazón
Tu voz
Acaricia mi corazón
Mi piel
Te necesito
Te deseo
Mis labios
Desean recorrer
Todo tu cuerpo
I can't
I won't
Stop
Hold back
You
Tu
What I want
Lo que quiero
Your are my
Love
Tu eres mi
Amor

Truth...

Pen to paper
Spilling forth
The truth
What I wish I could stay
I wish you would say
Its more than want
Its everything
I tried
To tell you
Couldn't you see it
Couldn't you feel it
Every kiss
Touch
Its was in every
Word
It spilled through
My skin
Will you laid in my arms
You are everything
My heart
Make sense of it all
The madness
Can't you see
That its me and you
Together against
It all
The loneliness
I'd follow you
Anywhere
Without fear
Without
Hesitation
Its all I have
The truth
Need
Me
I
Need
You...

Pieces

I've struggled to live up to...
What you want, need me to be.
Its all too much sometimes,
Trying not to disappoint.
I wanna love you the right way,
Your way.
I can't be someone I'm not,
I'm just me, who I was meant to be.
I wish you could see the good,
See the love.
I throw my heart into it all,
But its never enough for you.
I thought you could see the real me,
Eventually.
I feel lost in the shadows,
Barely breathing.
Pushed down by you,
Gasping for air.
I can't be your puppet,
Pulled along by my strings.
I thought love was everything,
Cause I gave it all to you.
Piece by piece,
You broke me down.
I've come to realize,
Its your heart that's broken.
You could never fell my love,
You're not capable.
Somewhere along the way,
You lost love.
My last drop of love is...
Goodbye.

Forever

You had my heart
That first time you hummed my name
Singing at the top of your lungs
Lyrics rolling off lips
Smiling when you hit that note
We had that one song
Hit replay over and over again
You took the verse
I took the chorus
Felt richer with every note
You were my safety net
From all that was wrong
That hurt me deep down
You wrapped me up in the melody of your voice
I felt the love all around
We never pretended
It was all true
It was me and you
Everything
Anything seemed possible
Protected in that bubble that was love
I never wanted it to end
I wanted us to be
I wanted us to see
All there was
But time was never enough
Two different directions
But its still there
That glimmer
How you felt
How I remember
That last kiss
Locked away
In my heart
Forever

Not Love

How things have changed
Not like they used to be
I thought you were
What I needed
To fill the emptiness inside
You were that ideal
My dream
But damn I was wrong
I lifted you up so high
Didn't see the cracks
The flaws in your smile
You were that shining star to my heart
But all I got
Was fucked over
Broken heart
Smashed to the ground
The disappointment
Its too much
Too hard
To accept
That I was not enough
For you
That you were not
What I wanted you to be
I put myself out there
For you
You made me feel
That something special
But it was all a fantasy
That you could not fulfill
You were there
But not
I almost said it
I loved you
But you never could
Be my love
Not completely
I look at it all
Now
You've moved on
I live on
Keep myself busy
But every now and then
You pop up
The feelings roll in
Anger creeps through my veins
A smile a cross my lips
Confusion sets in
I just want it to be over
To find that peace
It alludes me
You just continue
To haunt me
I know that its not love
Not love at all
Holding on
To what you were
What we were
In my head
How it made me feel
But its not worth
Time spent on an illusion
I want to be free
Of it all
And finally
Of  you
Cause its not love
Not love at all
Its over...

Music's Love

The music that speaks to my soul
Makes me feel free when the walls cave in
When no one seems to understand me
My feelings put to a beat that enwraps me
Helps to let it all go
Lift the weight of expectations
To see the world for what it is and where I fit in
My muse that insists
To create
To never forget
To smile when its far too cold
With music I can do anything
There are no restrictions
Everything at my fingertips
Its followed me though heartbreak
Finding that missing piece of me
Helped to realize that love comes and goes
But I'm still here in the end
Brought forth the strength to discard the ugly
The pessimism that lurks in the corners
Tells my story
With all its cracks, all its dips
Details flow in and out of rhythm
It remains that one constant
By my side
To soothe me of my insecurities
Music is that force
Its everything
Music is me
Music is love

No More


It takes time to see
Took me far too long
To see though to
The real you
You pulled me around
Toyed with my emotions
You had me believing
It all
Even the small
I don't know
How I could
Love you so
I played the part
Your fool
My heartbeat raced
Every time you said my name
Threw the truth in my face
You embraced that part
Left me cold
I gave you me
The world
All you ask for is
More and more
I was never enough
You wanted to the world
I wanted
Need
Love
Unconditional
True
That's not a bit you

Me

Is it too much
To ask for something
For you
Can't you see
The larger picture
See me
I stand here
Grasping at the air
Hold my hand
Give me something
To believe in
Breathe in
Totally
Utterly
Lost without
A word to guide me
A glimmer of hope
Save me from it all
I can't control it
The way I feel
Cold
I need your warmth
Around me
In me
A prisoner of fear
That I won't see
Feel
Happiness once again
Fill me to the brim
I'm here
But you don't see me
Feel me
Come and see
See me
It comes and goes
That feeling
That I can
Once again
See me
Feel me
But I want
I need you
Give me your hand
Your warmth
Your love
To complete
Fill in the empty spaces
To feel again
To see again
Just me

LoVe

So simple
Thinkin' 'bout you
Always one word
Darling
The key that opens
Deep inside
Makes me shiver
Every time
The suns rays
Caress
Can't explain
What it is
Complex
Feel it
You
Love
Breaks me down
Fills me up
Puts me together
You're with me
You see me
Complete
Apart
You
Me
Love

Feel


I see the way
You look at me
The way you ache
Slightest hint of my perfume
You want something
I can give you
My lips drip
Passion
Every kiss
In my arms
You lose
Control
Is it too much for you?
Do you want more?
My fingertips
Trace
Caress
Every curve
I wanna hear
Feel
My name escape from your lips
Believe me when I say
It can get better
Exceeding expectation
Redefining desire
Wanting more
Wanting me
Wanting you

Blame Me...

You wanna blame me
For your tears
Its that simple for you
You played your part
I told you the truth 
But you believed your lie
Now you're left in the cold
Without the warmth of my arms
I always put you first
But you always love me last
They all told me
You were too much to handle
But I wanted you
And all your baggage
The package you came wrapped in
Deceiving
I built my walls
To protect my heart
You want back in
But that would just tear me apart
Live with consequences of who you are
And that you can't blame me
