Long Distance (No Distance)

Disregard the ticking clock
Time is just a dusty trap scheming against our longings

Forget any given concept about hours
Seconds tend to get selfish in their loneliness
Trying to over-expand their splatter of importance
When we are apart

Ignore the geographical gap
Distance stretches its arms in a thug of war
Pulling both sides to its center

We meet in the middle
Tectonic plates sliding in together like God-made matching enzymes
Counter parts of a two-piece puzzle
Together complete

And every morning
I wake up drinking what reminisces of your taste in my mouth
I find in the breeze the whiff of your armpit
I touch your hands through the prints you left on my skin
I hear your laughter in every madly barking dog
Every tanned man over 6 feet tall wears your face for a second

You ask me about the empty space between our bodies
Don’t you see? It’s filled up with air
We’ve never ceased rubbing each other’s surfaces

The only geography I know
Is the vastness of your Land
My only concept of Time
Is what slips between our threads when I'm lost in your abyss

Nothing can come between us

I'm here
I'm yours
I'll wait

Nuestros Abismos

Dirigiste sin destino
Directo para el centro de todos mis secretos
Y alocaste dentro de mi pecho
Nadando mis mares mediterráneos

Yo, sin pensar, desavisada, deje entrar
Y aquí esta
Molestando la calmaría del monótono
Bañando me con tu tormenta de entusiasmo
Ah, como me haces borracha de felicidad

Miro lo escuro de mi miente
Y te vejo bien en frente de mi cara
Tu mirada atravesando mis ojos
Viendo me por detrás de todas las cortinas

No hay humo
Todo esta bien claro
No hay nada a ser dicho
Nada a programar se
Apenas la libertad del momento
Y que se sea infinito mientras dure
(Y mejor que dure para siempre, si aún queda alguna esperanza en Dios)

Ahora, aquí mi encuentro lejos de ti
Pero totalmente pertenecida de tu carne
Cada poro transpirando tu olor
Cada gota sudando tu sumo
Cada entrada recordando tus extremidades

Tetas, coxas, buceta
Mi rompes con toda la fuerza
Sonríes ríos entre mis piernas
Y yo desaguo mi flujos en tu cuerpo melado
Corriendo nuestras fronteras
Muriendo todos los segundos en raciones homeopáticas

Soy tuya
Tu cabrita danada safada sapeca
Buceando en tu cama
Rolando en tus sabanas
Y implorando en susurros tu mercy-turn-into-nectar

Seriamente
(Y para eso até junto dos deditos de mi manos para enfatizar)
Creyó, que for safety reasons, and that reason only
No debemos parar

Quiero proseguir sucumbiendo a nuestros abismos
Para el siempre de todos los siempres
Amor de todos los amores

Venga acá
Vengas me amar

USA

For seven years I have tried to fit in
Little child longing for the class’ acceptance
Struggling with inadequacy
Either explaining or fighting in the loneliness of my weirdness

But I’m not weird
I’m just not them
I’ve never been

I will never be

Genesis

They have opened the golden gates
They tangle their glory in front of my face
They offer me the status of the rich, the nectar of the Gods
They invite me in with promises of fame and fortune
Selling their acclaimed format of happiness

I stand motionless
I don’t want their happiness
Whose dream am I supposed to live?

Conformity had confused me
I had adapted to what they told me about success
I had forged a Master Plan of way of living that was never mine
I had surrendered to their army of compliance
And accepted a fate written down prior to my own will

But wait
There was hope left
I didn’t know but I still knew better

So there I went blindfolded by my innocent ignorance
Crossing continents
Searching for something
I didn’t know exactly what

I closed my eyes
And flew unintentionally into my destine
Just to hit face first against my shallowness

God, I’d been wrong!
How the hell had I been living?

I found myself landing in Joy
Thick smoke immediately dissipating
And a forgotten humanity squeezed epiphany out of my chest

It was all so clear
There it was
Me

And by Me, I mean the Me that I most like out of myself
That Amazonian identity of woman that jumps head first into the world
That has no fear of downfalls
And no hesitation towards happiness

Fuck precaution
Life is a sip of light in the vastness of this universe
Throw me into the black hole
Stir galaxies within me
Pare o mundo que eu quero descer!

I jumped in
And swam my mediterranean Sea
I ran across my borders
I biked the streets of my depth
To finally reawaken my Titan within

Life was blown into my nostrils

And in the seven night
After founding my own Genesis
And resting on my Sun-day
I climbed the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil
I caressed softly the Serpent skin
And took a full bite of the succulent Apple
Unaware of having invited my Adam in

I opened my eyes and there He was
Tribal Man-giant smiling at me
Palpable mirage watering my desert
Offering freely his bare heart to my hunger
No fig’s leaves needed
No shame welcomed

Go ahead and throw us out of the Garden
We will build our own

I’d be happy to bear the pain of childbirth over and over again
And live 930 years
As long as my Adam is with me

Close your golden gates
Our land has no fences

I rather swim my oceans than climb your mounts

I have found Home in the land and chest of my lover
Home sweet home

And here we are
Full of life and
Filled with love

Here I am
