Throat Full of Glass
I've seen your face in the fever —
a bloom beneath black water,
your hands pulling constellations from my open mouth.
You wear stillness like a wound —
something holy, something breaking.
I would bleed to taste you —
split my throat on your name,
let the hymn of you hollow me out.
Every breath is a needle in the dark,
every prayer —
a slow crucifixion beneath your weight.
If I begged you to keep me,
would you wrap me in wire?
Would you carve my ruin
into something worth worshipping?
Or would you leave...
a bloom beneath black water,
your hands pulling constellations from my open mouth.
You wear stillness like a wound —
something holy, something breaking.
I would bleed to taste you —
split my throat on your name,
let the hymn of you hollow me out.
Every breath is a needle in the dark,
every prayer —
a slow crucifixion beneath your weight.
If I begged you to keep me,
would you wrap me in wire?
Would you carve my ruin
into something worth worshipping?
Or would you leave...

I will rise and shine
I will rise and shine
Early tomorrow morning
I am not planning to sleep in
During the morning
And waste a day
Also father you brought more snow
It snow last night when I was sleeping
And this morning still snowing
I hope it ends this afternoon
I am not planning to go out
Anywhere today
I will stay in today
And I will do some work for my Father
Early tomorrow morning
I am not planning to sleep in
During the morning
And waste a day
Also father you brought more snow
It snow last night when I was sleeping
And this morning still snowing
I hope it ends this afternoon
I am not planning to go out
Anywhere today
I will stay in today
And I will do some work for my Father

Between These Lines
Let my tears fall between these lines
Because I feel too empty to let them fall down my face
Confidence I had to front cause I never had it
Writing is therapeutic so I used that to cope
I contemplate if happiness can save my soul
Trying to wiggle through this maze to find my worth as a man
My mind backpedaling to the demons I can’t seem to exercise
Middle of the night I wake up to my own cries
I keep running away from my insecurities but they keep catching up to me.
Because I feel too empty to let them fall down my face
Confidence I had to front cause I never had it
Writing is therapeutic so I used that to cope
I contemplate if happiness can save my soul
Trying to wiggle through this maze to find my worth as a man
My mind backpedaling to the demons I can’t seem to exercise
Middle of the night I wake up to my own cries
I keep running away from my insecurities but they keep catching up to me.

Father will be there
Father will be there
To heal me from my sickness
Any time today
Father will be there
And put me to sleep
This night
I need that badly
Father will be there
To pray together with me
Before I go to sleep
We will pray for the countries that
Are in war
Also, we are going to pray
For us both
Father, you know me well
You can always trust me
I will never let you down
Because you hate
To be let down
Father, I will treat you respect
Also, I don't make promises
To you that I can't keep
I am...
To heal me from my sickness

Polvo Brazileiro
I am also proud
To belong to the
Polvo Brazileiro
Also many years when
I was born one Brazilian
Polvo
I lived in São Paulo
I had been robed while walking
In the street of São Paulo
And it is not safe to walking in São Paulo
You also could be killed in the street in São Paulo
Also in São Paulo you can't drive you car with you
Window open
I never liked living in São Paulo
When I was just a teenager
I moved out of São Paulo
To Canada
I love living in Canada
At least it is safe to walk on the streets ...
To belong to the
Polvo Brazileiro
Also many years when
I was born one Brazilian
Polvo
I lived in São Paulo
I had been robed while walking
In the street of São Paulo
And it is not safe to walking in São Paulo
You also could be killed in the street in São Paulo
Also in São Paulo you can't drive you car with you
Window open
I never liked living in São Paulo
When I was just a teenager
I moved out of São Paulo
To Canada
I love living in Canada
At least it is safe to walk on the streets ...

A Bout of Madness
O Aphrodite, you callus and cruel god, I know now the madness of you,
I saw her face and thought her a radiant dawn,
I gave her my words, so simple and basic, nothing to me or her,
And she cared, to my jest she joked,
And something stirred,
Some arrow of madness.
I moved with haste, I made motion to meet her,
Manifest was my heart to bear, for her,
And the sting of scorn, for the hare is not to emulate,
What hubris of me, I know only her image,
Her voice a song yet for me to her, her person not mine to covet,
I knew this, I am no...

And the sting of scorn, for the hare is not to emulate,

Goodbye Dad
Goodbye Dad
I am heart broken
That I have lost you
So fast
I can't stop crying
Yes I could never believe
That you had to part so soon
But deep down
I could not stand to see you
Suffer every day
Battling you disease
I tried to make you
Comfortable
Also I had to be strong for you
And it is very hard to do
Yes you lost you battle
And at the same time
It was hard to see you leave
This earth
But at the same time
I must understand that
You are in a better place them me
You are living a new...

Every hour
Every hour
I am thinking of you
My father
You blessed me
With a nice weather
It is finally sunny today
Thanks God Father
We had already lots of rainy days
During the summer
So father you cooled the earth already
For us
We must tell you that we love the sunny days
We are having a mild summer
I am thinking of you
My father
You blessed me
With a nice weather
It is finally sunny today
Thanks God Father
We had already lots of rainy days
During the summer
So father you cooled the earth already
For us
We must tell you that we love the sunny days
We are having a mild summer

A Scarecrow
Yes
I am fragile
And I tend to break
But I know how
To hold up against
The words
Especially if I need to hear them.
I won’t break from honesty
I’ve learned how to stand with it
I am fragile
And I tend to break
But I know how
To hold up against
The words
Especially if I need to hear them.
I won’t break from honesty
I’ve learned how to stand with it

Hollow Hands
I have seen you in the quiet—
where the world breathes slow,
where the light pools soft against the edges
of something I can’t hold.
You are there,
in the spaces between heartbeats,
in the hush before the storm.
And still,
I reach for you with hollow hands.
I have drowned in softer waters,
let the tide pull me where your voice lingers,
let the weight of your absence
settle in my chest like an old hymn.
I have called you back
in the language of the lost,
in the silence that follows
when a...
where the world breathes slow,
where the light pools soft against the edges
of something I can’t hold.
You are there,
in the spaces between heartbeats,
in the hush before the storm.
And still,
I reach for you with hollow hands.
I have drowned in softer waters,
let the tide pull me where your voice lingers,
let the weight of your absence
settle in my chest like an old hymn.
I have called you back
in the language of the lost,
in the silence that follows

Broken Vessels
I feel you crawling through my veins,
not like fire,
not like ice,
but something quieter—
a weightless drowning.
Your name, still sharp on my tongue,
a rusted key in a door long closed.
Every breath I take,
a hymn in your absence,
a prayer unanswered.
And I swore I’d let you go,
but the echo of your voice
does not forgive,
does not forget.
So take what’s left,
wear my ruin like a crown.
Trace the map of me with your hands,
see where the fault lines tremble.
I was never meant to stand...
not like fire,
not like ice,
but something quieter—
a weightless drowning.
Your name, still sharp on my tongue,
a rusted key in a door long closed.
Every breath I take,
a hymn in your absence,
a prayer unanswered.
And I swore I’d let you go,
but the echo of your voice
does not forgive,
does not forget.
So take what’s left,
wear my ruin like a crown.
Trace the map of me with your hands,
see where the fault lines tremble.
I was never meant to stand...

It is so hard to live without you my father
It is so hard to live without you
My father
I just can't live without you my father
I need you to be a part
Of my everyday life
I could never
live without father
I know that you
Also love me
Without limits
And I am your son
And I will always be your son
You have created me
59 years ago with your
Holy hands
And you have placed me
Here on earth to live
I just love the life you
Gave to me father
I never complained to you
About my life
Thanks to you father
I live a very good life ...
