"You find yourself stripped from all your rainbow colored fantasies. Dreams of yours that were like butterflies surrounding you at all time and place suddenly vanished into thin air. You sit there wondering what you did wrong? Questioning yourself every question in the book. The rug was pulled rapidly and violently from underneath your feet. that person you who thought was home left you out in the callous, frigid cold with no answers. The source of joy gradually faded away before your very eyes, and there's nothing you could do about it. Dazed and confused. Trying to find a new reason of happiness.."

Hot August sun, women twirling and dancing in little black dresses, kids running down alleys, a man cutting and assembling mangos, muffled voices in Portuguese of neighbors next door, Big trees that allows sunshine sporadically through it's leaves, a group swaying and pulsing drumbeats to the lines:

"João, José, Jesus, Mané,

E Maria, também tem mulher

Tião, Pelé, Xangô, Nené"

—Coco aka Malak [Cidade De Deus]

"I am the brown tinted woman born by the Nile river and the Mediterranean. Like the moon my skin absorb and radiate sunlight, my eyes recite poems of love and melancholy. I have the scent of coconut, honey and wild hibiscus and I dance to the rhythm of summer solstice breeze."

—Coco (aka Malak)

She remembers vague memories of her long lost lover while she bathes herself in honey water and eats freshly picked plump red cherries. Her skin shines in the beams of sunlight like how the water of the Nile river in Luxor glistens on a hot summer day in July, her eyes luminesces like gold flakes in mines and she had lips of Damask rose.

“Give me your love your, your sad eyes, your sleepless nights. I want you. Your laughter, your gaze, your smile and your presence that’s featherlight.”
