The Heart Never Sleeps.

Rest among the petals of a rose,

the heart, but never sleeps,

double its beat

among the dreams that open up to life.

The heart never sleeps

in the dark of night,

naked like the moon,

shines at the center of heaven and earth,

driving force of love for humanity.

Great to do has the heart to never sleep.

Watch with its ticking

cradle the beloved from afar,

song of ancient music,

the eyes follow to never leave him alone.

 Infinite Love

In the rainbow colored reflections

souls dance in the sky

light interposed with light veil

now illuminates the peaceful heart.

Repeat that rhythm in the air

for a time that smacks of eternity

in space, brotherly love

sinterintereca dance and melody.

It is undeniable that I have not lost your love

in the chest the beat is always alive,

above large words I write,

notes of a silent pain.

When I come to my senses, I understand only then

that two hearts albeit far away

they always stretch their hands,

by destiny or other nature in their abode

with the secret of a never finished love

never lost at all

sure it won't be destroyed

until memory leads to infinity.

Walk Under The Moon.

In a corner of the world

of a cold autumn night

man of the student life,

stars and moon in a circle

all on the ground are waterfalls,

sparkling glitter of diamonds

smiles for the broken hearts,

new hopes are born.

With your hands, a big star,

grabs to be able to follow,

light that never has to fade,

expands in the air smelling of cinnamon.

A dream to realize

only if there is love to donate,

illuminates everyone's life,

night of stars and moon, it has flourished again.
