Jupiter and Saturn

It’s the shortest day of the year
On the Northern hemisphere
While two brothers far from Earth
Appearing closest at the sky

Agreements With the Past

Making agreements with myself
Of not putting me into a shelf
Closing the door
Not opening it any more

By a Landslide

Life could be so easy
How many times do we use this phrase
Every week —
Every day —

Gargoyles

The gargoyles roam this place
To meet another face
To face
Fate maybe?

Hurt No More

The reason is gone
And my heart feels empty
Not heavy at last

Sonnet #6: Building

In far reflections past our distant time
The miracles are limiting themselves
For every drop of wisdom is sublime
The better thought got always someone else

Observation

We like to observe
We want to judge
Other people
Because looking at ourselves
Is simply too much

Trier

This life is one of the hardest
My brother used to say
Yesterday you had a past to remember
Today your future was taken away
