Tenace.

It is life with its experiences

small or large, every day

even if it is not adorned with joys,

they strengthen consciences so much.

So you have new perception,

with the passage of time and years

how tenacious one is with worries

and don't just accept good things

that make you live in comfort

to become mature and experienced

to be determined and never uncertain

so that we can grow.

 From The Bottom Of The Soul.

If you stop to reflect

on the many cases that every day

happen around you,

get away from it, you want to live!

Suddenly, direct or indirect,

like lightning in a clear sky,

no more rainbow in the sky,

esperanza, new rules dictated.

It happens that you don't wait for it

what everyone has in common is well known

will all forces gather

in new hopes and affections

they place importance on every moment

of life intensity from the depths of the soul.

Dono

You are my most beautiful gift.

If I never knew you and,

knowing in my heart,

of your existence,

I would have looked for you everywhere ...

throughout the universe.

Between the valleys and the mountains,

I would have put my ear down

to listen to your breathing and,

come in front of you

that, I know, you too

you looked for me and ... a lot.

I would have looked for you among the stars,

looking at them one by one

to see what looks like you.

In the waves of the sea

and then also where they

s' break against the rocks

where it is more difficult to find you.

Yes, I would have searched not in the abyss,

but where there is light

that reflects your love

for me shining and

gleaming

to give me the signs of your existence!
