I raise my eyes to the sky, di Laura Alaniz

I raise my eyes to the sky

The whole world

Aches and groans

Do you feel her pain?

The human in me

Wants to heal mankind

It has more wounds

Than I have Band-Aids

(2014)

To love reading Writing and words And not be able to Communicate Frustrated

No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo

We Are me and you Together Two hearts Two minds

She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends

Pragmatic me Doesn’t like this girl You can’t depend on her Too complex to understand She cries at the worst times

Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms

Manos fuertes No me sueltan De la cama Yo les digo Me tengo que ir

Mis manchas de Bambi Manchas blancas Cubren mi cuerpo La gente se queda mirando Pero no les da asco

Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly

Destruction is fun But cannot be undone Smashed Trashed Crumpled

What if one day I wasn’t there for you? And you were left needing me If I wasn’t there When you woke up

The teenage rebels All fall in line Be they hippies Goths, rockers or skaters Moving from one mould

He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere

Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection

If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
