Que tontería la hipocresía de ser menos que perfecta para una sola persona. Que la vida solamente tiene una persona que pertenece. Que no hay mas amor tan grande de la de tu alma gemela. Que la mujer debe esperar para encontrar su príncipe azul. Que cuando llego sabrás el amor verdadero. Que vivirás felizmente por el resto de tu vida. Continue reading “No Hay Limites”

Esa Emoción
Te echo de menos…la aceleración de mi pulso
El canto de los pájaros me hacen sonreír, antes me enfadaban

He arrived and left without even a glance

Every little glance, smallest grazed was only for you, only you

I felt free, I was finally free Continue reading “I Decided to leave”
Todo tiene un Fin
Viene y va como las olas del mar
Nadie lo espera cuando llega
El sonido del reloj siempre te trata de avisar
Lo escuchas pero no le quieres admitir, tu tiempo se ha terminado
Te aferras a las memorias como el niño que se aferra a su madre
Escuchas el susurro de tu alrededor hasta que explotas pero no puedes y te lo tragas como tu favorito dulce Continue reading “Todo tiene un Fin”

Julio Cortazar was an Argentine author and poet that wrote stories that was categorized as the Latin American Boom; included magical realism, musical tone, and criticism of Latin America.
Letter to a Young Lady in Paris is one of my favorite literature works from Cortazar. It is a short story that is written in first person with the protagonist and another character that is writing the story about her; so it goes from her point of view to his.
