"Hey! </div>
<div>
no vayas presumiendo por ahí </div>
<div>
diciendo que no puedo estar sin ti </div>
<div>
tú qué sabes de mi. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ya sé que a ti te gusta presumir </div>
<div>
decir a los amigos que sin ti </div>
<div>
ya no puedo vivir. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
no creas que te haces un favor </div>
<div>
cuando hablas a la gente de mi amor </div>
<div>
y te burlas de mi. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
que hay veces que es mejor querer así </div>
<div>
que ser querido y no poder sentir </div>
<div>
lo que siento por ti. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ya ves </div>
<div>
tú nunca me has querido ya lo ves </div>
<div>
que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo sé </div>
<div>
fue sólo por orgullo ese querer. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ya ves </div>
<div>
de que te vale ahora presumir </div>
<div>
ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti </div>
<div>
que les dirás de mi ? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
recuerdo que ganabas siempre tú </div>
<div>
que hacías de ese triunfo una virtud </div>
<div>
yo era sombra y tú luz. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
no sé si tú también recordarás </div>
<div>
que siempre que intentaba hacer la paz </div>
<div>
yo era un río en tu mar. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ahora que ya todo terminó </div>
<div>
que como siempre soy el perdedor </div>
<div>
cuando pienses en mi. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
no creas que te guardo algún rencor </div>
<div>
es siempre más feliz quien más amó </div>
<div>
y ese siempre fui yo..."</div>

"Though I've tried before to tell her</div>
<div>
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart</div>
<div>
Every time that I come near her</div>
<div>
I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start</div>

<div>
Everything she does just turns me on</div>
<div>
Even though my life before was tragic</div>
<div>
Now I know my love for her goes on</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Do I have to tell the story</div>
<div>
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met?</div>
<div>
It's a big enough umbrella</div>
<div>
But it's always me that ends up getting wet</div>
<div>

Every little thing she does is magic</div>

Everything she does just turns me on</div>
<div>
Even though my life before was tragic</div>
<div>
Now I know my love for her goes on</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I resolved to call her up</div>
<div>
A thousand times a day</div>
<div>
Ask her if she'll marry me</div>
<div>
In some old fashioned way</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But my silent fears have gripped me</div>
<div>
Long before I reach the phone</div>
<div>
Long before my tongue has tripped me</div>
<div>
Must I always be alone..."</div>

"I think your applause died out, hands red, tired, and stained with the hue of once excited blood. I think you thought I was magic. Did my curtain lift when I forgot to take my bow? I think you thought you saw mirrors hiding in the fog and light. Backstage and alone I will slide off the cape, set down the hat, and bow to the empty seat I thought you were filling. I think you thought I was magic."</div>

Mereces un amor que te escuche cuando cantas, que te apoye en tus ridículos, que respete que eres libre, que te acompañe en tu vuelo, que no le asuste caer.

" Te doy mi alma desnuda,
como estatua a la cual ningún cendal escuda.
Desnuda con el puro impudor
de un fruto, de una estrella o una flor;
de todas esas cosas que tienen la infinita
serenidad de Eva antes de ser maldita.
De todas esas cosas,
frutos, astros y rosas,
que no sienten vergüenza del sexo sin celajes
y a quienes nadie osara fabricarles ropajes.
Sin velos, como el cuerpo de una diosa serena
¡que tuviera una intensa blancura de azucena!
Desnuda, y toda abierta de par en par
¡por el ansia del amar! "<br />
<div>
<br /></div>

- Juana de Ibarbourou (1892 – 1929)</div>

She knows you better than you know yourself, in your everyday mind. When she holds up a mirror in front of you, you don't notice the blemishes. You see a being of radiant power and possibility, your ancient and shining self. And in that moment of recognition, you begin to remember and live from your soul's purpose, the sacred contract you signed before you came into your present body.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
...and you never say thank you, or remember her birthday. You ignore her advice more often than not...You forget the songs you sang together, and those nights of love and beauty...If you find the moon through the smog and city lights, you do not recollect that she flew you there...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
If she were a regular friend, she might dump you as a miserable ingrate. This friend is beyond the ordinary, and she has the patience of an angel - but even the patience of angels is not endless. So if you won't take her advice, she might make less of an effort to warn you...Then the magic begins to flicker in your world, and you are more alone than you ever need or want to be.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
...dreams require action. We must take action to honor the friend who visits and advises and travels with us in our dreams, but the most important is the one we find in the mirror - when our sight is clear: the ancient and shining self. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Taking the right action to honor dreams is practical magic of a high order. Real magic is the art of reaching into a deeper reality and bringing gifts from it into the physical world. This is what we do when we honor dreams, and the powers that speak through dreams."</div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<br />
"One of the dumbest things you can do is backbite an animal or a human being.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<br />
Reason is: Besides the fact that an animal who is feeling grouchy that day might bite you back...<br />

Whenever you speak ill of any living creature something of their shadow might fall on you.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

Some unwanted impressions of theirs could spill on your floor,<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br />
and I imagine you are busy enough trying to keep things tidy."<br />

- what is on your desk? -<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
From the beginning of my life<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I have been looking for your face<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
but today I have seen it<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Today I have seen<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
the charm, the beauty,<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
the unfathomable grace<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
of the face<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
that I was looking for<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Today I have found you<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and those who laughed<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and scorned me yesterday<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
are sorry that they were not looking<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
as I did<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I am bewildered by the magnificence<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
of your beauty<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and wish to see you<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
with a hundred eyes<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
My heart has burned with passion<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and has searched forever<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
for this wondrous beauty<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
that I now behold<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I am ashamed<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
to call this love human<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and afraid of God<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
to call it divine<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Your fragrant breath<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
like the morning breeze<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
has come to the stillness of the garden<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
You have breathed new life into me<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I have become your sunshine<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and also your shadow<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
My soul is screaming in ecstasy<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Every fiber of my being<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
is in love with you<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Your effulgence<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
has lit a fire in my heart<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and you have made radiant<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
for me<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
the earth and sky<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
My arrow of love<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
has arrived at the target<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I am in the house of mercy<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
and my heart<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
is a place of prayer<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"There are so many words by Rumi that melt me straightaway into the heart pine floor. This particular line of words is so powerful and free of prediction that first it freezes me, forcing my eyes closed, and then instantly it infuses me with a kind of sweet slow burn that reminds me that I am so alive and so willing to take another chance on another new day. If this line had been spoken at Emmanuel Methodist Church when I was a girl in South Carolina I would not have been bored and scribbling bad poetry in the margins of the church program. I would have been mindful, engrossed, bowed, a devoted girl shepherd — imagining the future.” - Nikky Finney</span><br />

"Look, I don't ask much, just your hand, to hold it...I need that door you gave me for coming into your world, that little chunk of green sugar, of a lucky ring. Can't you just spare me your hand tonight at the end of a year of hoarse-voiced-owls? You can't for technical reasons. So I weave it in the air, warping each finger, the silky peach of the palm and the back, that country of blue trees. That's how I take it and hold it, as if so much of the world depended on it..."<br />

"Mira, no pido mucho, solamente tu mano, tenerla...Necesito esa puerta que me dabas para entrar a tu mundo, ese trocito de azúcar verde, de redondo alegre. No me prestas tu mano en esta noche de fin de año de lechuzas roncas? No puedes, por razones técnicas. Entonces la tramo en aire, urdiendo cada dedo, el durazno sedoso de la palma y el dorso, ese país de azules árboles. Así la tomo y la sostengo, como si de ello dependiera muchísimo del mundo..."<br />

"I feel myself dying in you, overtaken by expanding spaces, which feed on me like hungry butterflies.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I close my eyes and I'm laid out in your memory, barely alive, with my mouth wide open and the river of oblivion rising. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And you, patiently, with needle-nosed pliers, pull out my teeth, my eyelashes, you strip the clover from my voice, the shade from my desire, you open up windows of space in my name and blue holes in my chest through which the summers rush out in mourning.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Transparent, sharpened, interwoven with air I float in a drowse, and still I say your name and wake you, anguished. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But you force yourself to forget me, and I'm barely a bubble reflecting you, which you'll burst with the blink of an eye." </div>
<div>

"Me siento morir en ti, atravesado de espacios que crecen, que me comen igual que mariposas hambrientas.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Cierro los ojos y estoy tendido en tu memoria, apenas vivo, con los abiertos labios donde remonta el río del olvido.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Y tu, con delicadas pinzas de paciencia me arrancas los dientes, las pestañas, me desnudas el trébol de la voz, la sombra del deseo, vas abriendo en mi nombre ventanas al espacio y agujeros azules en mi pecho por donde los veranos huyen lamentándose.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Transparente, aguzado, entretejido de aire floto en la duermevela, y todavía digo tu nombre y te despierto acongojada.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Pero te esfuerzas y me olvidas, yo soy apenas la burbuja que te refleja, que destruirás con sólo un parpadeo."</div>
