Flor de Papel

Paper Flower
The moon is an orange
the color of the garden, at midnight,
rests behind the window watching the ....
I go, I go rogue
the photos the rNr
were alcohol tacks what are you doing?
now I try to keep the heart
which is a great steel spring from jumping out of my chest
I need you, you see, I hate to admit
that I need to have your breath to be okay
lost in love, my mind needs you
call please!!,
I'm a zero on the left
I'm a gasless balloon,
a ship at sea without a captain adrift
call please!!
if I'm so defenseless
I lack willpower
I can't concentrate
I find the way out
roses....red...one by one bitter
roses...red....the decision and the pleasure
I imagined I had you, again, like back then
soaked in dew, all night...wait for me
don't go yet, I shouted in the darkness
paper...flower...dissolving in the rain
in the foam of your kisses I shipwrecked,
and now I'm raw,
paper...flower more changing than the moon
in the cold geometry of your skin I missed sanity I

lights...cold diamonds..
angel like demon you
fall from the blue sky slowly like a light
no, don't cry like that, almost breathable air
evening streets.
half man with woman
I bring more than a pin
no, don't cry like that,
be careful with the heart
down here in this material world
you defend yourself or they will tear you apart for nothing
be careful with the heart
with the wings and everything else,
a slip and they can pluck you ....alert...
