My poem got reposted by my favourite Poetry Account, how cool is that? // j.d.m.
“One day it’s here and then it’s gone, how are you still holding on?”
“Life passes you by, don’t waste your time on your own”
- Kodaline “One day”
“The only way anyone can live in peace is if they are prepared to forgive”
Still one of the best speeches i’ve ever heard
Que aunque me encuentre lejos
Me sientas cerca
Que la distancia que hay entre nuestras fuerzas
Se hará siempre tan ridícula
Y tan pequeña
Mientras los dos sigamos las mismas estrellas
Y aunque vueles lejos
Tan alto que no puedas vernos
Te esperamos dentro
Siempre habrá un techo
- Izal “Pequeña gran Revolución”
Water
Life’s too short to waste it in “caffeine” people, those who make you feel good, but just for a brief moment, and then make you feel like shit till the next coffee.
Look for people who, like water, make you feel peaceful after a hot day at work, who give you the energy when you’re facing a long run and who bring you the fun even when the winter snow freezes your nose.
Cause water is transparent, doesn’t hide the truth. You may don’t always think it’s necessary and take it for granted.
It can be furious as a storm and tranquil as the sea, but there is always beauty in it.
It can take what you think is just plain sunlight and turn into the most gorgeous rainbow you’ve ever seen.
And suddenly, after you’ve lived for a bit without it, you realize you can’t live without it.
Listening to someone’s voice in your head sooo clearly, that they make you laugh without being there.
You are my “just in the right place at the right time” kind of story.
Welcome to my world Sunshine

Maturity
Maturity. i’ve realized that when people tell you to be mature they actually mean “hey don’t worry, you don’t need to express so many feelings, just move on and you’ll see how this pass”. I guess they are right. How easy it’s for a child to go from playing laughing with their friend to crying desperately if they fight and then a moment later they are back to bing best friends again. And we see that as immaturity of course. How is showing your feelings to that degree ever going to be the right way to act? we’ve become a society where showing that you are anything less than “fine” or “good thank you” is wrong. That when you love someone so much you can’t imagine your life without them you can’t find the words for expressing it, simply because no one has ever showed them to us. how are we supposed to let people come and go and just say “hello” and “goodbye, see you later” with the same fake stupid smile we always wear. Maybe it’s something we realize as we grow up, showing your feelings is a weakness, something you don’t want to do cause that means the person in front of you could harm you. and no one wants that.
Honestly if that’s growing up i don’t want a single part of it. I want to be able to feel, to cry, to laugh, to be upset, to love. I want to be able to transmit how much i love someone without thinking i’m making myself so vulnerable i should be scared.
Eventually, when we are all a super “happy” society and no one knows how the person they care about is feeling we will realize that life is not based in how many hours you smile a day, but the way those smiles make you feel.
THREE LOVES
It’s been said that we really only fall in love with three people in our lifetime.
Yet, it’s also believed that we need each of these loves for a different reason.
FIRST: Often our first is when we are young, in high school even. It’s the idealistic love—the one that seems like the fairy tales we read as children.
This is the love that appeals to what we should be doing for society’s sake—and probably our families. We enter into it with the belief that this will be our only love and it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t feel quite right, or if we find ourselves having to swallow down our personal truths to make it work because deep down we believe that this is what love is supposed to be.
Because in this type of love, how others view us is more important than how we actually feel.
It’s a love that looks right.
SECOND: The second is supposed to be our hard love—the one that teaches us lessons about who we are and how we often want or need to be loved. This is the kind of love that hurts, whether through lies, pain or manipulation.
We think we are making different choices than our first, but in reality we are still making choices out of the need to learn lessons—but we hang on. Our second love can become a cycle, oftentimes one we keep repeating because we think that somehow the ending will be different than before. Yet, each time we try, it somehow ends worse than before.
Sometimes it’s unhealthy, unbalanced or narcissistic even. There may be emotional, mental or even physical abuse or manipulation—most likely there will be high levels of drama. This is exactly what keeps us addicted to this storyline, because it’s the emotional roller coaster of extreme highs and lows and like a junkie trying to get a fix, we stick through the lows with the expectation of the high.
With this kind of love, trying to make it work becomes more important than whether it actually should.
It’s the love that we wished was right.
THIRD: And the third is the love we never see coming. The one that usually looks all wrong for us and that destroys any lingering ideals we clung to about what love is supposed to be. This is the love that comes so easy it doesn’t seem possible. It’s the kind where the connection can’t be explained and knocks us off our feet because we never planned for it.
This is the love where we come together with someone and it just fits—there aren’t any ideal expectations about how each person should be acting, nor is there pressure to become someone other than we are.
We are just simply accepted for who we are already—and it shakes to our core.
It isn’t what we envisioned our love would look like, nor does it abide by the rules that we had hoped to play it safe by. But still it shatters our preconceived notions and shows us that love doesn’t have to be how we thought in order to be true.
This is the love that keeps knocking on our door regardless of how long it takes us to answer.
It’s the love that just feels right.
Maybe we don’t all experience these loves in this lifetime, but perhaps that’s just because we aren’t ready to. Maybe the reality is we need to truly learn what love isn’t before we can grasp what it is.
Possibly we need a whole lifetime to learn each lesson, or maybe, if we’re lucky, it only takes a few years.
Perhaps it’s not about if we are ever ready for love, but if love is ready for us.
And then there may be those people who fall in love once and find it passionately lasts until their last breath. Those faded and worn pictures of our grandparents who seemed just as in love as they walked hand-in-hand at age 80 as they did in their wedding picture—the kind that leaves us wondering if we really know how to love at all.
Someone once told me they are the lucky ones, and perhaps they are.
But I kinda think that those who make it to their third love are really the lucky ones.
They are the ones who are tired of having to try and whose broken hearts lay beating in front of them wondering if there is just something inherently wrong with how they love.
But there’s not; it’s just a matter of if their partner loves in the same way they do or not.
Just because it has never worked out before doesn’t mean that it won’t work out now.
What it really comes down to is if we are limited by how we love, or instead love without limits. We can all choose to stay with our first love, the one that looks good and will make everyone else happy. We can choose to stay with our second under the belief that if we don’t have to fight for it, then it’s not worth having—or we can make the choice to believe in the third love.
The one that feels like home without any rationale; the love that isn’t like a storm—but rather the quiet peace of the night after.
And maybe there’s something special about our first love, and something heartbreakingly unique about our second…but there’s also just something pretty amazing about our third.
The one we never see coming. The one that actually lasts. The one that shows us why it never worked out before.
And it’s that possibility that makes trying again always worthwhile, because the truth is you never know when you’ll stumble into love.

“I don’t want to be the reason why you don’t want to leave, I want to be the reason why you want to come back”
Some things were meant to be
Wise men say only fools rush in But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay? Would it be a sin If I can't help falling in love with you?Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with youLike a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you For I can't help falling in love with you

A new dimension just for ourselves
You know what i would do if i had the 6 gems?
I would create a dimension just for the two of us.
One where we could both hold hands in the street, walk while hugging each other and stop for random kisses wherever we want to.
A reality where we could see all the sunsets we would like, where we would lie in the grass and see the sky change color while the stars appeared.
Where the only air we breathed was the sea breeze, while the birds sang around us and our feet sank into the sand.
A world where we could dance and cook and dance while we’re cooking, and just stay at home watching movies.
Or spending our time living adventures in the wilderness, getting lost in the most far away jet amazing places.
But just for the two of us. Let time stop, let the rest of the world just stay on pause..... or continue and move on, i really couldn’t care any less.
But i want this world and i want it with you.
The only problem is, i don’t have those 6 gems, and whenever i try to make that reality happen, someone get’s hurt.
