Peace
We pay with our lives
Decision others they took
Because they are looking at their pockets
And not at the safety of the planet
Why a war is happening?
Always the same response
Nobody knows
Learn to talk
Learn to communicate
Learn to accept
Learn to respect
Peace,
So rare in this planet
Since the existence of the humans
Quiet was a privilege for few
Understand,
Listen
Be silent
Those are the rules for a bright future
Hope,
No children will sleep
Without his parents tonight
Pray,
For Angel’s protection
To everyone’s house.

Miss the hug
A hug that they give you and you forget the weaknesses of your existence.
I miss a kiss
The kiss that someone give you and your stomach make those noise like is full of butterflies
I miss the smile
That childish smile that you have
You are smiling and all nature become
Pink
I miss the walk to the beach
The waves
The perfume of the salt
I miss the sunshine and the sunset
All the simple things that I had
I miss the generosity of people
I miss the kindness of grandparents
I miss the relaxing moments of drinking a coffee
Now, they all want your friend, your position, your talent, your contact, your potential, your life almost but no one…
Nobody want to get in your shoes
They are too tide.
***
Women
They born
They do not become
They are the pillars of societies
Or tribes
They are
They exist
Women,
Creators of rainbows
Of Angels
Of Gods
Women,
Show them respect
As you respect your mama
Your daughter
Your sister
Women,
We supposed to be all together
But the new societies
Makes us enemies
Cheap
Without care
With sympathy
Without empathy
If women they could remember their purpose
The world it could be different.
