Come

I've been waiting for you to call my name, only God knows how long I've been waiting. Even when the sounds stop buzzing in my ear and the sun goes down, I still feel like listening to your voice.

I cast a spell far away from the places where we have been, so nothing will remain — not a picture of you or me, none to speak about each other. Only the moon will remember stares that we shared.

But in these nights of lonely bliss, I still wait for you to come to me. So come.

Choke

Me vendiste tus pecados como errores,
mientras yo susurraba plegarias en tu nombre,
queriendo creerte tan inocente,
figurabas en una lista como el primer culpable.

El sol era mi enemigo,
y tu te regocijabas bailando en sus rayos,
desde las sombras te ignoraba,
pero venías por mi,
jalándome más hacia ti,
dejándote consumir por el frio de mis manos.

El deseo era solo tu excusa para abusar de mi paciencia,
para culparme por palabras dichas,
por actos cometidos sin segundas intenciones.
Pero te pregunto,
a pesar de todas las que buscas,
de todas las que quieres,
¿por qué sigues durmiendo solo?

Christmas wishes

It's not rocket science, I just wanna fuck him.

Battle scars

Sitting by the shore, watching the hurricane,
It had to decide whether to descend or rise,
Whether to swim or remain still.

There was no full moon,
And the wind scattered its tears across the sand,
Painfully touching its shoulder,
Screaming in its ear to run.

Breathing became difficult—shallow and fast.
It tried to fill its broken lungs through its mouth,
But ashes gathered in its throat,
Like a whirl of black dust.

Anguish, invisible and violent,
Pounded its chest and nestled behind its eyes.
How lucky are those who do not fly,
How lucky are those who do not remember.

And night after night,
Step by step,
It drowns its demons
In flames of sighs.

Aspirando plumas

Rey de los suburbios
¿Qué sabes de noches sin dormir?
Si miras tu reflejo y sonríes de tu propio destino,
tan lleno de ti mismo,
que incluso el diablo disfruta de tu egocentrismo. 

Cuéntame cómo me veo a través de tus ojos,
¿he sido muy obvia o he sido muy fría?
aún cuando le pido al sol que te nuble los días,
aún siendo yo un sueño que no puedes alcanzar,
nos arden los dedos por intentar escribirnos otra vez,
pero claro, el orgullo nos carcome.

Que largos días, ya no puedo abrazarte
Pero no me imagino siendo otra mas que tu incertidumbre, tu final,  
el infierno donde se quemen todos tus milagros.

No le pidas a mi pecho, lo que no va a darme la razón.

Fade to vastness

I'm not thinking of anything romantic,
not even trying to picture a future.
I'm just asking for the simplest and most common offering that someone could request
a little of your time.

Someone once said that words always triumph over violence,
but I'm not so sure about that.
What I am sure of is that all the violence I've inflicted upon myself by rejecting the thought of you
has made me more of a winner than a loser.
If I had spoken all the truth,
used the real words that I wanted to tell you,
I would have felt like I was losing my throne,
and I don't lose.

Scraps

You don't belong here,
where the corners of my mind get foggy and cloudy from the ghost of you,
you don't belong here anymore,
where the room seems so big that it could swallow me whole.

There's no air for you to breathe,
you should say goodbye to the precious oxygen,
sitting next to the only demon you know,
ready to exorcise the evilness from your heart.

You may have been the worst,
you may have been pure darkness,
but I drank from your innocence,
and I tricked you into believing that I was innocent too.

Lovely eyes, lovely fall,
keep collecting scraps,
you should just die.

Deep down

Craving is dangerous,
it doesn't fit into my head.
Even when I try to savor the sensation,
craving just feels so unfamiliar to me.

I'm no stranger to finding myself fantasizing about other lands,
other people, other worlds,
but never for something so tangible,
never for someone so close and simultaneously distant,
and yet, here I am, craving.

I acknowledged the devil in me a long time ago,
sometimes it looks at me through my reflection in the mirror,
sometimes through the tears that I shed,
and even more regularly, in the fist that hits the wall.

What a perfect geometry my body will form entangled with yours,
fading together with the many faces that we show to the world.
What suspicious art that dances in the wind,
like the smoke of my cigar, which I crave enormously,
the same as you.

I'm on my way

The moon used to give me the best advices,
and sometimes in them, I could find solace to sleep.
Most times, I'd sleep near the fire, reflecting on my madness,
dreaming of lips that were no longer mine and superficial ideas that screamed at me,
flapping their wings.

But on the first day of letting go of bitter sighs,
I also left poems half-written, with words about all I had buried.
With my silhouette turning its back to the door,
my eyes fixed on the white wall,
watching the years slip by and my hair tangling in itself,
I closed my eyes, wounded and burning, entrusting myself to my cards.

The drawings and their blurred instructions seem to want to laugh,
with destiny still not putting on its shoes,
and my predictions, like jokes, seem to be life's ironies.
If lies come out of my mouth, I am ready to walk on pins,
because I'd prefer to forget everything before denying that I walked several times on the same path.
I'm tired of repeating the same cliché,
but the darkness grows and seems to want to devour me.
I'm not scared, because I was the one who spoke in dreams.

Through shadows and folds

Un departamento lúgubre,
de aquellos que solo conocen Santiago centro, su smog y su ruido,
en donde no sale el sol y la humedad se siente en el aire.
Si no tenía depresión antes de entrar,
al salir ya quería que me tragara el cielo.

Pero sigo estando acá,
aún después de haber tirado la toalla y vomitado palabras infinitas.
Pero sigo estando acá,
aún después de haber agotado infinitos recursos.
Pero sigo estando acá,
aún después de haber dado mucho más de lo que me robaste,
sigo acá.

Y solía ser un poco de todo, 
reina sin corona,
una gran prima donna,
princesa desquiciada,
y también bastante desgraciada,
eligiendo entre él y el veneno,
seamos honestos, no había mucha diferencia.

Cuando me fui desgarré mis alas,
que no querían nada más que volar.
Firmé mil veces la paz,
y nuestros acuerdos solo eran una guerra fría.
Era más doloroso seguir siendo silenciosos que discutir a bala limpia,
preferí dispararme en la sien que seguir desangrándome de a poco.

Como dijo Sabina,
ni tu eras para tanto, ni tu eras para tanto,
ni yo soy para ti.

 I just needed you to care enough about me to try...

Bite me again

During this time of year, it is usual for me to break down due to the lack of warmth. I often get sick with the absence of dreams, and despair knocks at my door without remorse. However, this time I found myself sitting on your lap, freely running my hands through your neck and hair, while yours wandered over my back and waist.

I smiled against your lips, not feeling ready to truly feel, but sometimes, turning off my consciousness makes me feel better. You could pull my strings, and I could drink a thousand promises, believing in romances or in fake ones.

But the kisses only served to silence my pain, to numb my reality. I thought I had forgotten how to kiss, but it still feels as natural as swimming.

Weakly, I pulled away from you, looking into your bright eyes, shining with lust, desiring more, curious about what comes next.

I pressed my forehead against yours and took a deep breath; your scent enveloped me, and at that moment, I also wanted more of you. However, my self-control and fear are stronger than my audacity.

So become the person you want to be; forget my age, and I'll forget your past. Forget my clumsiness, and I'll forget who you really are.

It's such a short life, are you really going to let this opportunity to slip away? If it doesn't work now, it will never do.

Moreover, it won't be the first or the last time that I fall flat on my face, dreaming of love.


Ephemeral whispers

Mi estuche está lleno de lápices que no ocupo,
que a veces revolotean en mis dedos,
pero me doy cuenta de que realmente no los necesito,
solo ocupan espacio.

Así como los mensajes de instagram que no respondo,
cuando leo palabras que son solo letras sin sentido.
Sin contar el whatsApp que ya no suena,
he apagado todo,
hasta mi cabeza.

Cada vez más dudas, más viejos, más ciegos, más sordos.
Y todos los sueños cada vez más rotos.
Mi inspiración como pájaro sin alas,
y mi intuición al borde con mis ambiciones.

Pero hazme un favor, no preguntes más.
Dime con los ojos lo que nunca dijiste con los labios,
habla entre mis piernas y besa mi silueta,
que las sombras suelen ser bastante calumniosas,
y yo aún no aprendo a mentir con elocuencia.

Además, si el celular hiciera ring,
solo le contestaría a él,
y no a ti,
no a ti.

Yo fumaría un cigarrillo más al desayuno,
y el humo llegaría como una invitación a todas las cosas que no son sagradas.
En vez de fingir, prefiero reír.
Que nuestras fervientes súplicas queden olvidadas.

Tu quédate hablando solo,
puedes seguir tarareando...

 Contigo no cerraría los ojos, a ti te miraría a cada segundo...


Playing god

Observé como el cigarro llegó a tus labios,
y desee que fueran mis labios los que llegaban.
Pero aparté la mirada avergonzada,
ya no se me permite soñar.

Nuestros ojos solían cruzarse,
y yo le rogaba a tus ángeles,
que me miraras un ratito más,
un minuto más.

Como si de imanes se tratara la historia,
yo siempre volvía a toparme contigo,
la misma calle, los mismos espacios.
A recorrer los mismos pasos para llegar a tu camino,
y hubiera dejado que tus espinas me tocaran,
solo por obtener una sonrisa más.

Esta vez no le hice caso a mi cabeza,
y me deje guiar por mi tonta intuición.
Nunca creí ser las más enamoradiza.
Pero anhelaba amor como si fuera mi propio oxigeno.

Nunca serías eterno en mi realidad,
sin embargo te traigo a mis sueños cada cierto tiempo.
Porque sabiendo que podías matarme,
yo solo quería morir de amor.

Me limitaba a sonreír y hacerme la tonta,
puesto que el papel siempre me quedó tan bien.
No me arrepiento de mis miradas de papel,
yo misma quise ser mi verdugo.

No había guerra que ganar,
ni tu ni yo somos vencedores.
Pero tampoco salimos realmente ilesos,
ni tu memoria, ni la mía,
borraran las miradas, ni las sonrisas.

Wishing to say it

I think I forgot to say a couple of things, or maybe much more than just a couple.
I always wanted us to work, always wished it was you and me, that we belonged to each other.
I gave my all to make it happen, but my efforts weren't enough.
I always chose you, above family and friends. But I don't think you ever went through that.
Until I finally chose myself, and realized I couldn't keep collecting scraps of love. I couldn't keep waiting for you, couldn't change your priorities, and couldn't keep longing for things that would never happen.
Pride was always greater than us.
I will always carry an eternal sorrow, because we never worked out.




26 jun 2023

Me dan las 3 de la mañana imaginando mil escenarios en donde te soy sincera, en donde al fin puedo dejar de callar, en donde mis ojos miran los tuyos y no temen de nada.
Pero eso es solo mi imaginación, de eso vivo, eso respiro.
Una vez más, tendré que conformarme con la realidad...

The sun is not shining today

Al fin y al cabo tampoco era tan mala persona, solo alguien un poco herida.

This isn't fair

How many tears have I shed for you?
I can't even try to count them.
In the end, my heart already knew that you were only hurting me.

Did I still believe that you could be mine?
When your eyes were closed to the absolute truth,
To the only truth that was important:
that I used to love you,
and I thought that I could give my life for yours.

Forgive me for what I've done.
I tried so hard to fight these feelings,
but you were the one who always played with them.
I blame you for your selfishness.

I wanted to have you forever
because I believed that you were the one,
but I was mistaken again.
Even when I fought so hard,
You didn't even blink.
And it isn't fair.

Frío de verano

Un vacío me habla de ti,
como si tu recuerdo titilante no te trajera a colación cada media hora.

Una canción me habla de ti,
como si cada palabra retratara todo lo que alguna vez significaste.

Una taza de café me habla de ti,
como si el olor que proviene de ella se envolviera en mi nariz y te proyectara en el vapor.

Unos pasos me hablan de ti,
como si fueran los tuyos caminando a mi alrededor recogiendo los pedazos de lo que algún día quisimos ser.

Mi reflejo me habla de ti,
como coloreando las imágenes que tengo de nosotros fumando en la playa.

El frío me habla de ti,
en un verano donde el calor se ha vuelto implacable, 
pero en donde mi piel se eriza con la falta de el. 
Como si pudiera correr a tus brazos a resguardarme
y decirte que te quedes,
que no te vayas, 
que esta vez todo saldrá bien,
que no tienes que partir.

Pero los dos sabemos que no es así,
que ya no estás.
que te fuiste lejos.
Aunque la palabra esperanza se ha vuelto sinónimo de ti.
Y aún creo que puedes llamar mi nombre.
Besitos al cielo.

Sanctuaries of Mud

I watched as the sun faded,
as the stars stopped shining,
and as the moon no longer showed me its face.

I watched as everything burned,
as oxygen no longer entered my lungs,
and my heartbeats barely showed signs of life.

But I traded all the planets just to see the light once more,
I traded all my tears for smiles made of paper,
I traded all my fear and anguish,
for a new dawn.

And I wasn’t alone,
holding my hand was me.
And I wasn’t afraid,
at my back, again, it was me.
And I was able to sing again,
with a guitar that no one played,
but it was meant just for me
