Breath of Life
Far from the ones we love,
Far from who we want,
Very close to what we feel,
Very close to what we suffered.
Everything so close...
And at the same time so far away.
Everything so impossible
Life so unreal.
We dream... we dream...
And from these dreams we live.
Loving as we can
Always feeling what we don't want,
Wanting what we don't want.
And so we suffer... because we live
While waiting. Rio de Janeiro, August 1989
MARIA LUCIA DA COSTA

ALWAYS THINKING
Breath of Life Full of curiosity one day I asked Life: "Life, who would I be if I wasn't who I am now?" I'm sure it wouldn't be known as Maria Lucia, Maria, Lucia or Lucinha... Maybe it could have other names, like Laura, Rita or Carolina! But with such different...
SWEET CHARLOTTE
Breath of Life Life, who would I be, if I were not what I am today?For shure I would not be called Charlotte or sweet Charlotte... As I am known at home. I could have another names! Laura, Rita or Caroline!But, with such different names, I would not be the sweet...
