Burned 12 of 30 NaPoMo2014

It's time
To pick up the matches
Among the ashes
Left from too many flames
Lit and re-lit
But not getting it quite right
And getting quite upset
About the outcome
Overcome with loneliness
It's no wonder
She set her love life on fire.

Out of Step 6 of 30 NaPoMo2014

I'm not sure I made the right decision
Actually from the beginning
It's like we're on the wrong foot
Trying to make it fit to the beat.
And even though we BOTH KNEW
We were out of step.
It just felt nice to listen to the music
Even though we BOTH knew we were not on beat
You beat me to it
And your phone call telling me you wanted to sing a different song
With me doing the oohs and ahhs
Instead of the lead duet.
Which lead to my anger
For once again letting a stranger
Strum on my heartstrings
But not finish a verse.
And worse...
I knew you were right.
Because we BOTH knew we were off beat.
And instead of beating around the bush
That phone call
Let me push you away far too easy
Maybe we could have met in the middle
When you tried again
I ran away from the repeat sign in the score
Those two dots bring you back to the beginning
But i guess I also ignored the breath mark
And the fact that most times there are second endings

Es Cara La Ilusión

Veo tu cara en todas partes
Descansando en Plaza España
Saliendo del metro
Comprando vino en AhorraMas
Veo tu cara en todas partes
Esa cara de cobarde
Que no pudo darme la cara
Veo tu cara en la luna
Cuando me asomo a la ventana
Para inhalar la aroma de nuestro pasado
Ya sabía que jamás me ibas a querer
Y no quería admitir
Que yo tampoco lo tenía tan claro
Esos pajaritos en el aire que te iba a pintar
Por eso no hay poema
De los momentos felices que vivímos
Porque ya tenía fecha de caducidad
Y no tenía porque meter más ilusión
En una relación
Destinada para meterla con la basura.
