Take a Piece of Me
I don't want to be selfish
but I don't want to be alone,
I used to be the one who goes away
now it's time for things to change.
I'm afraid you broke my heart
with departures on your hands,
I'm upset because you are right
there's no way to avoid that time
and when the day finally comes
I must be happy, no sorrows,
I must treasure what was done
and with your kindness heal my wounds.
It's always hard to say goodbye,
please, take a piece of me right now,
taste the salty tears that fall,
drink the sweetness of my heart.
Please, enjoy yourself with me
and remember the experience of being here,
don't forget that you will live
forever in my memories.

Star Gazing
(31/08/2018)
The Sun rises up
and it’s time to face again
the secured truth
that you are with him.
Everyday I have to be strong
to tell myself that is not wrong,
that everything goes on
and my heart keeps beating up,
that I’m lucky for my life
and the precious time I have
here, where I’m not from,
it’s an opportunity from God.
I have to bless my path
and say that everything is all right,
keep telling me the story
that only ends until late night.
The only moment I have
when I can feel completely free
is well hidden in the line
of the horizon with trees.
I wish for luck, I wish I have
a strong will to dare,
I wish for a kiss
that won’t be again.
A shooting star cross
the sky at high speed
and for a moment is like now
I can fulfill my wish,
but is just a twinkle star
this sensation that will fall
in a far away place,
in a far away land.
Give me that glowing charm
tell me that all is a lie,
tell me whatever you want,
I believe any word from your mind.
I don’t want the night to end,
I don’t want to sleep right now,
let’s keep doing this dazzling game
until the Sun comes back.
