Stay The Night
Green Day

impulse that it burns
i wanna breaks your heart
until it makes your stomach churn

the circles round my eyes
and we can watch
the stars until the sun begins to rise
i gotta know if you're the one that

even though it was
never meant to be
so stay, stay the night
cuz we're runnin' out of time
so stay the night
i don't wanna say goodbye
so stay, stay the night
cuz we're runnin' out of time
so stay the night
i don't wanna say goodbye

TAKE ME AWAY WITH YOU

Make You Feel My Love

Adele

When the rain

Is blowing in your face

And the whole world

Is on your case

I could offer you

A warm embrace

To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows

And the stars appear

And there is no one there

To dry your tears

I could hold you

For a million years

To make you feel my love

I know you

Haven't made

Your mind up yet

But I would never

Do you wrong

I've known it

From the moment

That we met

No doubt in my mind

Where you belong

I'd go hungry

I'd go black and blue

I'd go crawling

Down the avenue

No, there's nothing

That I wouldn't do

To make you feel my love

The storms are raging

On the rolling sea

And on the highway of regret

Though winds of change

Are throwing wild and free

You ain't seen nothing

Like me yet

I could make you happy

Make your dreams come true

Nothing that I wouldn't do

Go to the ends

Of the Earth for you

To make you feel my love

Eu Sei Que Vou te Amar

Tom Jobim

Eu sei que vou te amar

Por toda a minha vida eu vou te amar

Em cada despedida eu vou te amar

Desesperadamente, eu sei que vou te amar

E cada verso meu será

Prá te dizer que eu sei que vou te amar

Por toda minha vida

Eu sei que vou chorar

A cada ausência tua eu vou chorar

Mas cada volta tua há de apagar

O que esta ausência tua me causou

Eu sei que vou sofrer a eterna desventura de viver

A espera de viver ao lado teu

Por toda a minha vida

Com que escritor você tomaria uma birita?

to precisando dar uma virada a la J.K. Rowling...

Ela me inspira muito. Se fosse escolher um autor (a) seria ela.

Apesar do meu gênero favorito ser poesia, eu adoro Harry Potter.

Falta ler e ver o último. Faz parte da minha vida.

Lembro que quando comecei a ler, o Harry tinha minha idade, achava o máximo.

Sempre gostei da Hermione e as gracinhas do Ron.

Caso eu tenha filhos, eu vou ler pra eles, ou quem sabe eles não aprendam a ler com os livros.

Outro dia estava no bar e comecei a pensar na escritora. Ela já tinha uma filha e escrevia em bares. Agora é uma das mulheres mais ricas do Reino Unido.

Por favor Deus, me dê o talento igual dela em transformar palavras em dinheiro. Em milhões.

Prometo ajudar os pobres e os necessitados.

amém.

Estou esperando que faça arco-iris, mas e se só chover?

Naquela estrela estão todos meus sonhos realizados.

Preciso voar para tê-los!

Rezo a Deus para que me dê asas.

Mas ele não entende direito e me dá palavras.

No escuro eu tento fazer algo.

Mas acabo dormindo e sonho.

Talvez chega a hora dele dizer:

Carolina, não esquece que tua alma é feita de poesia,

e ela é tão imaterial quanto a alegria.

Seja grata pelo que já tem, pois o homem maduro te ama

e amor é feito de liberdade.

O tempo é muito lento para os que esperam
Muito rápido para os que tem medo
Muito longo para os que lamentam
Muito curto para os que festejam
Mas, para os que amam, o tempo é eterno.

William Shakespeare

If You Go Away

Madonna

If you go away
On this summer day
Then you might as well
Take the sun away
All the birds that flew
In the summer sky
When our love was new
And our hearts were high
When the day was young
And the nights was long
When the moon stood still
For the night bird's song
.
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away...
.
But if you stay
I'll make you a day
Like no day has been
Or will be again
We'll sail the sun
We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees
And worship the wind
.
Then if you go
I'll understand
Leave me just enough love
To fill up my hand
.
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away...

If you go away
As I know you must
There will be nothing left
In this world to trust
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
Like the empty look
I see on your face
I would have been the shadow
Of your dog
If I thought it might kept me
By your side
.
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away...
.
If you go away
If you go away...

Please, don't go away.

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Maysa

Composição: Jacques Bre

l

Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le coeur du bonheure

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles et des pluie
Venues de pays
Où il ne pleut pas
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'après ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumière
Je ferai un domaine
Où l'amour sera roi
Où l'amour sera loi
Où tu seras reine

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Je t'inventerai
Des mots insensés
Que tu comprendras
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-là
Qui ont vu deux fois
Leurs coeurs s'embraser
Je te racontrai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

On a vu souvent
Rejaillir le feu
De l'ancien volcan
Qu'on croyait trop vieux
Il est paraît-il
Des terres brûlées
Donnant plus de blé
Qu'un meilleur avril
Et quand vient le soir
Pour qu'un ciel flamboie
Le rouge et le noir
Ne s'épousent-ils pas

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Je ne vais plus pleurer
Je ne vais plus parler
Je me cacherai là
A te regarder
Danser et sourire
Et à t'écouter
Chanter et puis rire
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre
L'ombre de ta main
L'ombre de ton chien
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Don't leave me

Dont' leave me
You have to forget
Everything can be forgotten
That is flying away already
Forget the time
The misunderstandings
And the time that was lost
Trying to understand how
These hours can be forgotten
Those that are killing sometimes
With whys that hurt like punches
The heart of happiness

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

I will offer you
Pearls made of rain
Coming from countries
Where it never rains
I will work the earth
Until I die
To cover your body
With gold and light
I will create a kingdom for you
Where love will be the king
Where love will be the law
Where you will be the queen

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

I will invent for you
Meaningless words
That you will understand
I will speak to you
Of these lovers
That we've seen twice
Their hearts embracing each other
I will tell you
The story of this king
Who died of not being able
To get to know you

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

We have often seen
Fire flowing again
From an ancient vulcano
That we considered to be too old
It seems like
Burned earth
Produces more wheat
Than a warm month of april
And when the night comes
And the sky is on fire
The black and the red
Won't go together

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

Don't leave me
I won't cry anymore
I won't speak anymore
I will hide right there
To see you
Dancing ad smiling
And to listen to you
Sing and then laugh
Let me become
The shadow of yor shadow
The shadow of you hand
The shadow of your dog

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

Discursos feministas

A dominação masculina deve ter começado quando um homem disse que tal pedra era sagrada.

A mulher discordou.

Ele mostrou o cajado (bastão).

Ela concordou com ele.

Talvez eu seja a espertinha que conseguiu roubar o bastão.

-A pedra não é sagrada, é apenas mais uma pedra.

No Brasil as mulheres ganham cerca de quase 70% a menos que os homens.

No Japão ganham metade para fazer o mesmo serviço, as mesmas horas.

Lá as mulheres vão sabendo disso.

Mas aqui no Brasil quase ninguém sabe da diferença.

E outra, dona de casa faz o serviço de uma doméstica e não recebe salário por isso.

Deus é homem, o Diabo é homem, onde a mulher tem espaço?

Na Terra? Pois é na Terra que a gente vai dominar!

Pela dominação das bonecas!

Sono

Tenho preguiça

Por isso durmo.

Escutei a

canção do noturno

Dizia: durma

porque é noite,

naquela bruma

a rotina é açoite.

Durma porque é dia

fecha os olhos

e esquece a melancolia.

Durma e descansa

quem sabe aquela

velha esperança

apareça na janela.

Durma e sonhe mais

porque a poesia

saiu do teu cais

e visita outra estadia!

AS SEM-RAZÕES DO AMOR

Eu te amo porque te amo,
Não precisas ser amante,
e nem sempre sabes sê-lo.
Eu te amo porque te amo.
Amor é estado de graça
e com amor não se paga.

Amor é dado de graça,
é semeado no vento,
na cachoeira, no eclipse.
Amor foge a dicionários
e a regulamentos vários.

Eu te amo porque não amo
bastante ou demais a mim.
Porque amor não se troca,
não se conjuga nem se ama.
Porque amor é amor a nada,
feliz e forte em si mesmo.

Amor é primo da morte,
e da morte vencedor,
por mais que o matem (e matam)
a cada instante de amor.

Carlos Drummond de Andrade

Legista sem razão, do coração

O cupido que pode ser menina também, é burra e otária.

Como é que pode me deixar apaixonar por um canalha?

Como é que pode levar minha liberdade e deixar meu coração explodir desse jeito?

Que sorte eu tenho...

Bonita, faz favor de não beber e acertar a flecha no sujeito certo;

Faz favor de ver se ele é o homem que procuro;

Faz favor de se apaixonar também.

Aí você fica feliz por qualquer coisa como eu.

Ai, flecha certeira de que maneira acabo com essa brincadeira?

Até as crianças bobas que nem você proibiram a "novela" de acontecer.

Doida, me traz a lista dos que foram e a lista dos que vão ser.

Aí quem sabe eu aprendo a esquecer. A dor.

Podia ser tão curto sofrer quanto a palavra.

E fe-li-ci-da-de caber em uma mão.

E tris-te-za ser só metade.

Dizem que tem um monte de meninas querendo ser eu.

E que tem um homem esperando por mim.

Até quem mal nasceu, já está a fim.

Queria só poder ver o amor e vivê-lo por completo.

Eu não tenho medo, tenho vontade.

Desejo tudo, sem ser pela metade...

Down em mim

Cazuza

Composição: Frejat/Cazuza

Eu não sei o que o meu corpo abriga
Nestas noites quentes de verão
E nem me importa que mil raios partam
Qualquer sentido vago de razão
Eu ando tão down
Eu ando tão down

Outra vez vou te cantar, vou te gritar
Te rebocar do bar
E as paredes do meu quarto vão assistir comigo
À versão nova de uma velha história
E quando o sol vier socar minha cara
Com certeza você já foi embora
Eu ando tão down
Eu ando tão down

Outra vez vou te esquecer
Pois nestas horas pega mal sofrer
Da privada eu vou dar com a minha cara
De panaca pintada no espelho
E me lembrar, sorrindo, que o banheiro
É a igreja de todos os bêbados
Eu ando tão down
Eu ando tão down
Eu ando tão down
Down... down

first part

Just to say and don't forget,

I love you and don't regret.

I wouldn't be so lonely

Everyday will be better

It wouldn't be so painfully

Just to stay together

Just to say and don't forget,

I love you and don't regret.

Maybe it is just temptation

We don't even have to try.

Maybe my heart is on

You're too loud to hear me cry.

Just to say and don't forget,

I love you and don't regret

And when will you see?

Cause I can promise

And my future is clear

Can love really die?

Just to say and don't forget,

I love you and don't regret.

Libre...

Siempre quise escapar de verdad..
quise largarme y desaparecer..
intente mil maniobras y ninguna resulto..
pero tiempo después una mas llego..
deje lo más parecido a una nube
para cubrir mi ausencia..
deje visitantes con alas
que pasaban al rededor..
deje las inclemencias del tiempo
y el vértigo que me agobiaba..

Siempre quise ya no estar..
quise huir y perderme..
queme el plan de escapismo
y me quede con alguna ceniza..
deje esas vistas hacia mas allá
del norte y del sur..
deje la poca gravedad
que me acompaño..
deje el frio de la bartolinas
y las miradas hacia el suelo..

do poeta Alejandro Cifuentes Arrivillaga

destruindo a mitologia...

Depois de descobrir que Dionísio era o cara da vinícola, veio um momento decisivo na minha vida:

descobri que o diretor das nações unidas (clima) era o cara que perguntava sobre o tempo no elevador.

Foi tão depressivo que quase chorei... Eu esperava que ele usasse insígnias, ou pelo menos carregasse uma bandeira com ele...Mas depois disso voltei a realidade, ou não voltei, porque esperava que o nome dele fosse Pedro...São Pedro...

Não... Só me acorde quando a tempestade passar.

At Last Etta James

At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Ohh yeah yeah
At last
the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah...
You smile, you smile
oh And then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

poesia concreta

after too much drinking

after puke

after being on a toilet

after having sex

Is your life really cool?

do you really love?

because fuck isn't love

and poesy isn't a work

and writing isn't necessary

and you should be dead.

and your bedroom is a prison...

OF COURSE MY DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE.

AND IS BETTER THAN I THOUGHT.

from a desperate needer

My God Singer went away

And what I can not say

I love him forever

With you is better

Orpheus do not play with Zeus

Play for me, play for us.

There are milllion fans.

Green Day are here to stay.

and from the verse is my pray.

if all the bullets that may

cross your heart or stray

stop all the while

when you smile

jesus you are my soul.

you are my heart.

p.s. i'm still locked up here.

If You Forget Me by Pablo Neruda

I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine

Cold Cold Heart

Norah Jones

I've tried so hard, my dear, to show that you're my every dream

Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme

A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart

Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue

And so my heart is payin' now for things I didn't do

In anger, unkind words I say that make the teardrops start

Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me

But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory

The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart

Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

Lonestar

Norah Jones

Lonestar where are you out tonight?

This feeling I'm trying to fight

It's dark and I think that I would give anything

For you to shine down on me

How far you are I just don't know

The distance I'm willing to go

I pick up a stone that I cast to the sky

Hoping for some kind of sign

I'll Be Your Baby Tonight

Norah Jones

Close your eyes, close the door

You don't have to worry any more

Cause I'll be your baby tonight

Shut the light, shut the shade

You don't have to be afraid

'Cause I'll be your baby tonight

Well, that mockingbird's gonna sail away

We're gonna forget it

That big fat moon

Is gonna shine like a spoon

But we're gonna let it

You won't regret it

Kick your shoes off

And don't you fear

Bring that bottle over here

Cause I'll be your baby tonight

Well, that mockingbird's gonna sail away

We're gonna forget it

That big fat moon

Is gonna shine like a spoon

But we're gonna let it

You won't regret it

Kick your shoes off

And don't you fear

Bring that bottle over here

Cause I'll be your baby tonight

Cause I'll be your baby tonight

Cause I'll be your baby tonight, tonight

Thinking About You

Norah Jones

Yesterday I saw the sun shining

And the leaves were falling down softly

My cold hands needed a warm, warm touch

And I was thinking about you

But here I am looking for signs to lead me

You hold my hand, but do you really need me

I guess it's time for me to let you go

But I've been thinking about you

I've been thinking about you

So when you sail across the ocean waters

And you reach the other side safetly

Could you smile a little smile for me

'Cuz I've been thinking about you

I've been thinking about you

I've been thinking about you

I've been thinking about you

Sleepless Nights

Norah Jones

Through these sleepless nights

i cry for you

And wonder who

is kissing you

Oh these sleepless nights

Will break my heart in two

Somehow through the days

I don't give in

I hide my tears

That wait within

Oh but then through sleepless nights

I cry again

Why did you go ?

Why did you go ?

Don't you know ?

Don't you know ?

I need you

I keep hoping you'll come back to me

Oh let it be

Please let it be

Oh, my love, please end

These sleepless nights for me

Why did you go ?

Why did you go ?

Don't you know ?

Don't you know ?

I need you

I keep hoping you'll come back to me

Oh let it be

Please let it be

Oh, my love, please end

These sleepless nights for me

My love, please end these sleepless nights for me

Love Me Tender

Norah Jones

Love me tender, love me sweet

Never let me go

You have made my life complete

And I love you so

Love me tender, love me true

All my dreams fulfill

For, my darling I love you

And I always will.

Love me tender, love me dear

Tell me you are mine

I'll be yours through all the years

'Till the end of time

Love me tender, love me true

All my dreams fulfill

For, my darling I love you

And I always will

Love me tender, love me true

All my dreams fulfill

For, my darling I love you

And I always will

Always will

Free Minds

In a beautiful dance

We, love will trance

And if we cannot shine

We are burning bright

Exploding life with chaos

Confusion are getting us

Oh, such a terrible dust

Oh, suffocating bitter gust

Remind me the last discuss

Record past dirty disgust

Starvation will cease

No more pain and tease

Such as calm hot breeze

That came to make us pleased

The undiscovered power

Hided by the smallest flower

The secret will be revealed

But only if you need

Nothing but a joy,

Oh, how much I love you boy!

Is it a dream???

to Billie Joe Armstrong

On my dream I wasn't alone

All my love wasn't gone

On my dream it was a kiss

And I say to myself, yes, he is!

He is the man of my dreams

And my mistakes, my sins

Are erased by my Lord

And now I can believe is God

Maybe he just does not understand me

Or perhaps he can't comprehend me

But another repetition

Will make a poem by a instruction:

"Women are meant to be loved,

not to be understood".

dreaming again

In the morning I felt a sleep.

When I count the first sheep

He already knows my dreams.

Letter One

I can't write the fairy tale

My brain is burning

My love isn't for sale

I'm still learning

I'm skipping classes

I'm full of boredoom

The time just passes

Now it is afternoon.

Billie Joe Armstrong, from Green Day

Why poesy?

Lay me under the stars

Or let me daydreaming

Vici(latim) all the wars

Vouchsafe you

Hope you enjoy my speech!

I want to thank my parents, my friends, God, but specially those who fucked me when I was really bad.

It is important to remember how they spend every second of their precious time to criticize my work. And how useless it was.

I want to thank the dictators and the criminals too. Because of these plagues I almost commit suicide. It was so pleasant to think about death, everytime I was lying on the bed.

How my verses improve! And how I was afraid of being robbed by these idiots! All my knowledge and life being wasted to prove something. The persecution was funny sometimes, but most of the"brilliant" ideas stuck(still) on my mind and stops my creative process.

I am so proud of be open minded! I wish my heart, my lungs and my stomach get the same treatment (cut) too! Blood over my body. People doing wars with my bones! So beautiful!

Now being sincere, all these sarcasm made me almost give up from everything.

Thanks ONLY for who really understands and loves me.

Poema que vem com o dia

Poema que vai com a noite

Não sei se é cara a poesia

Feita com o coração amante.

Se do sonho vem a alegria e do gozo a satisfação, não quero acordar ao meio dia, prefiro a gostosa sensação. Qual a cor da alegria? Transparente como a da alma. Sim, já tive muito disso. Sem sair da cama o corpo pronto para dançar. Ah! As nuvens onde fui descansar.

Esqueça o inferno das Merry Wives e coloca Shakeaspeare tragicômico, sem os casais que vão para cama morrer de amor.

E o fruto probido, aumenta a libido.

Nevermind the sin, now God is a queen,

And a drag queen, forgive and redeem!

excerpts from Tamerlane

O, human love! thou spirit given

On Earth, of all we hope in Heaven!

Which fall'st into the soul like rain

Upon the Siroc-wither'd plain,

And, failing in thy power to bless,

But leav'st the heart a wilderness!

Idea! which bindest life around

With music of so strange sound,

And beauty of so wild a birth-

Farewell! for I have won the Earth.

Edgar Allan Poe
