Toy Soldiers

Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win
Battle wages on for toy soldiers

So said Eminem in one of his lyrics. And from all the battles he fought he said:

And even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost it
I spent too much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted

Just like Arjuna when he cryed after having won the battle, because his dear cousins were dead.

Flor

Liberdade outra vez

You said we're fatally flopped
When I'm easily bored
Is that okay?
Strike me off your list
Made this the last kiss
I'll walk away

Porque é que palavras como estas são tabu. Porque é que não somos livres de dizer: Estou farto de ti, desaparece da minha vida? Porque é que não somos livres?

Angel Padmé

Anakin
Are you and Angel?

Padmé
What?

Anakin
An Angel. I've heard the deep space pilots
talk about them. They live on the moons of
Iego, I think. They are the most beautiful
creatures in the universe. They are good,
and kind, and so pretty they make even
the most hardened spice pirate cry.

Padmé looks at him, not knowing what to say.

Padmé
I've never heard of Angels.

Anakin
You must be one...
maybe you just don't know it.

Padmé vs Anakin

PADMÉ
There was a very old man who
lived on the island. He used to
make glass out of sand - and
vases and necklaces out of the
glass. They were magical.

ANAKIN (looks in her eyes)
Everything here is magical.

PADMÉ
You could look into the glass
and see the water. The way
it ripples and moves. It looked
so real… but it wasn't.

ANAKIN
Sometimes, when you believe
something to be real,
it becomes real.

They look into each other's eyes. He touches her chin.

PADMÉ
I used to think if you looked too
deeply into the glass, you
would lose yourself.

ANAKIN
I think it's true…

Anakin kisses Padmé. She doesn't resist. She comes to her senses and pulls away.

PADMÉ
I shouldn't have done that.

ANAKIN
I'm sorry. When I'm around
you, my mind is no longer
my own.

Padmé to Anakin

I'm not afraid to die. I've been
dying a little bit each day since you
came back into my life.

Anakin vs Padmé

PADMÉ
I am not going to give into this.
I have more important things to
do than fall in love.

There is silence as they stare at the fire.

ANAKIN
It wouldn't have to be that way...
we could keep it a secret.

PADMÉ
Then we'd be living a lie - one we
couldn't keep up even if we wanted
to. My sister saw it. So did my mother.
I couldn't do that. Could you, Anakin?
Could you live like that?

Silence for a moment.

ANAKIN
...No, you're right.
It would destroy us.

Anakin to Padmé

From the moment I met you,
all those years ago, a day hasn't
gone by when I haven't thought of you.
And now that I'm with you again,
I'm in agony. The closer I get to
you, the worse it gets. The thought
of not being with you makes my
stomach turn over - my mouth
go dry. I feel dizzy. I can't breathe.
I'm haunted by the kiss you should
never have given me. My heart is
beating, hoping that kiss will not
become a scar. You are in my very
soul, tormenting me. What
can I do? I will do anything
you ask…

Love

I was hanging around and I got in love...
Suddenly I realize that I got in love a lot of times.
Then I asked myself: What the fuck is being in love? Who the fuck invented love? Is love a concept?
Is love instinct? Are we meant to love each other?
If yes why there are so many wars. It seems hate and love walk side by side as in love couple.
Maybe is the this duality that create love. The duality that makes us all different. The duality from water and fire.
The duality represented by good and evil. And maybe this duality it is an ilusion!! MAybe we are all one.
Maybe there isn't any duality. Maybe we are being cheated by GOD. Maybe we are meant to be cheated.
So where does love end up? Down the toilet? Or as the most important thing in our lifes? Many questions, few answers.
What am I looking for? I don't know, but I do know that only get lost the ones who are seeking for something.

Nice Girls


Pus no Google "Nice girls" e a primeira imagem que apareceu foi esta. Estava à espera de uma modelo estrondosa, com peitos rijos e e abdominais de sonho. Afinal vieram três mulheres reais, com olhares mais profundos que todas as revistas mostram. Quando não se criam expectativas os frutos são maiores.

Autobiography in five Chapters

1
I walk down the street.
There is deep hole in the pavement.
I fall in.
I am lost… I am hopeless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.
2
I walk down the same street.
There is deep hole in the pavement.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I can’t believe I’m in the same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.
3
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the pavement.
I see it is there. I still fall in … It’s a habit.
My eyes are open.
I Know where I am.
It’s MY fault.
I get out immediately.
4
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the pavement.
I walk around it.
5
I walk down another street.

To be naked



To be naked is to be deprived of our clothes and the world implies some of the embarassament which most of us feel in that condition. The World nude, on the other hand, carries no uncomfortable undertone. The Vogue image it projects into the mind is of a balance, prosperous and confindent body: the body re-formed.

Keneth Clark, 1956 in the wall of Tate Modern Gallery, London
