The glass is bottomless

But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

there's people and there's pain


You dont know this yet,
but life is not suppose to be this

hard.

a song and a book




Here is a song I used to listen back in London.
I'm off to Harry Potter once more.. I have stuck with him until the very end but even more important, I owe him big part of my sanity and hope.

Coracao sem imagens


Deito fora as imagens,
Sem ti para que me servem
as imagens?

Preciso habituar-me
a substituir-te
pelo vento,
que esta em toda a parte
e cuja direccao
e' igualmente passageira
e veridica.

Preciso habituar-me ao eco dos teus passos
numa casa deserta,
ao tremulo vigor de todos os teus gestos
invisiveis,
a' cancao que tu cantas e que mais ninguem ouve
a nao ser eu.

Serei feliz sem as imagens.
As imagens nao dao
felicidade a ninguem.

Era mais dificil perder-te,
e, no entanto, perdi-te.

Era mais dificil inventar-te,
e eu te inventei.

Posso passar sem as imagens
assim como posso
passar sem ti.

E hei-de ser feliz ainda que
isso nao seja ser feliz.

Raul de Carvalho


move along


Then the fire fades away
But most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're the other side of the world
To me

let me in






You need boundaries, between you and the rest of the world.
Other people are far too messy.
It's all about lines. Drawing lines in the sand and praying like hell no one crosses them.

At some point you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out; they fence you in. Life is messy, that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines that are too dangerous to cross.

So here's what I know.
If your are willing to take the chance, the view from the other side is spectacular.

at the edge of the ocean





There's a place I dream about
Where the sun never goes out
And the sky is deep and blue
Won't you take me there with you?


There's a world I've always known
Somewhere far away from home
When I close my eyes I see
All the space and mystery.
