Escrever lágrimas

Escrever lágrimas

Como é que se escreve lágrimas?
Não “lágrimas”
Mas lágrimas
Não a palavra
Mas o objecto
E lágrimas não são um objecto
Lágrimas
São lágrimas
Mas como se escreve?
Não as letras
Mas a água, a dor, a tristeza
Não o L, o A, o G e o R
Não o I, o M, o A e o S
Não
Como se escreve o sentimento?
Como se descreve a angustia?
Como se define o aperto no peito,
Os olhos molhados,
A sensação de sufoco,
O choro?
Como se escreve lágrimas?
Como dizer por escrito
Quando nem há palavras?
Porque se houvesse palavras
Dizíamo-las
Não choravamos
Então,
Como se pode escrever “lágrimas”
Se lágrimas não se escreve?

Cry

Cry

I wanna cry
Just cry
Only cry
Seconds
Minutes
Days
Even nights

Cry until I have no more tears
Until I have an empty space in my chest
Cry until I can't breath
Until I can't remember why am I crying

I wanna cry
Release the tears
The pain
To forgive
To forget
Who let go
What they never get

Why life should be so hard?
If they're just fine, why must they change?
How could that love be so cold? What happen?
The Sun frozen it, didn't burn it

And I wanna cry
Forever
For now
Show to everybody
That it's wrong
Show them
How it hurts me

So where is the "together forever"?
The "friends forever"? The true friendship?
Was the distance so important?
Grow means say one thing and do the opposite?

So I wanna cry
In silence
Alone
And maybe one day
I'll wake up
And found that all of it
Has just change again

By Butterfly
To the ones who never read what I write

Words

Words

Words don’t matter
Are empty
Full of nothing
A way to explain
What can’t be explained
Just letters
In some special order
Symbols of something
That means anything
So why are so important?
How could they rule our life?
Change us
The way we fell
Make us cry
Or make us laugh
How could they?
Words are only words
A combination of letters
Written in a paper
They are
What we want
They mean
What we say
And they represent
What we thing
So…
How could they turn
Against us?
How could they be
Above us?
How could they
Create and destroy
Escape
Form our control
If they’re just words?
Letters
Without meaning
Symbols
Of something bigger
How could they?
Kill the hope
Or make us dream
Raise a smile
Or let us die
How?
They’re simple words
But have the power
Of the humanity
They are the good
And the bad
They mean the heaven
And the hell
Are the world
In words

Revolt's Poem

Revolt’s Poem

Whatever they say
Whatever the order
You won’t do it

Whatever they want
Whatever they require
You won’t give it

Even if they scream
Even if they threaten you
Doesn’t matter

You won’t be
What they want you to be

You won’t say
What they want you to say

You won’t do
What they want you to do

And you won’t think
What they want you to think

‘Cause you are you
Not them
Not what they want

‘Cause you are you
Born from them
But more than them

You’re what you are
Say what you think
And do what you want

Whatever they desire
Whatever they dream with
Will be always more than you

But what they really have
What they really raise
It’s just you

By Butterfly

Solitude

Solitude

No one cares
‘Cause no one hears you
You’re all alone
But you like it
The empty walls
The silence between them
The peace
No screams
No voices
Just your own
You and yourself
But when you cry
Won’t be anybody
To caught your tears
You’ll be drown in them
And then
You’ll wish someone
Other’s screams
That are not yours
And other’s voices
Whisper in your ears
Saying you to handle it
To don’t give up
But there’s just silence
Deep damn silence
And you keep falling
And in the dark of the night
You’ll smile
Because it was your choice
You wished
It was you who wanted
That loneliness
Solitude
‘Cause you thought
It would be easier
When there is no one
To tell you what to do
To give you orders
To say what’s right
And what’s wrong
But now
In the end
When the silence smothers you
And the shiny empty walls
Make you cry
You realize you’re wrong
But it’s too late
You’re really all alone
You and yourself
You and your solitude
The only one
That will never leave you
Solitude
