I am the sea and the ocean, the captain of my ship, under this firmament.
I am the volcano and the ice of Antarctica…

Identity
I am this world that adorns me with forests and rivers,
That embraces me with its cities and washes me with its rains.
I am the sea and the ocean, the captain of my ship, under this firmament.
I am the volcano and the ice of Antarctica,
The most beautiful image of him,
I am the sister of every brother,
I just separate myself from the war.
My life is this most beautiful garden of a forgiving soul,
My heart preserves its identity and loves the whole world…

The desire of dreams
I want someone to wake me up in the morning to offer me his sighs,
With a look to hug me hands to tender breasts to rush.
To receive kisses as a gift for love it’s not a thing when you truly love,
The heart and first love get over it.
A gentle breeze from the pocket to wake us together,
Behind him the sun to offer us its splendor, to carry us to our dream sphere.
