SNOWY NIGHTS
Long, cold, snowy days
White blanket on the hills
Soft cotton over me
Times of reminiscence, affection
Long, cold nights like this
A distant bark,
A train whistles beyond the creek,
Moonlight bathes the hills …
Looking through the window
Wondering what now?
The battle thought to be over
Is here again in my soul…
This turmoil of my mind
Like last winter continues
Loss, sorrow, uncertainty;
And you…
Our journey is difficult
Dreary times and hard winds await
I am ready for you my love
Tender, with my heart in hand
As yesterday, as tomorrow…..

WHAT A DREAM
I dream of Paris, the city of poets
Where you and I will meet by the river
On a Sunday afternoon,
While a romantic Chopin plays.
I dream of Paris,
The city of love
On a Sunday afternoon,
Where I will be waiting for you……..

I THOUGHT OF YOU TODAY
I thought of you today
I loved you since I met you,
I know this, deep in my heart and soul
I still do, I always will….
I feel like I never felt before
I know that you have a powerful grip on my heart
Since that magical time your eyes laid on me
I thought of you today……
Yet, many months after,
Storms, distance and silence,
My entire being trembles like today
When I think of you
You have a grip
That feels sweet and strong,
When I embraced you I wondered
Will this last forever?
It is the fate of my life
That I’ll have to learn to live
With this pain in my heart,
With this thought of you
I have no doubt
That you will think of me
I have no doubt
That I’ll think of you again……
Alvaro, Summer /2000
