Breath of Life
PEOPLE
People… are merely people in all the world.
They have their feelings,
Their anxieties…
And at the end of their lives,
They will have the balance
Of their entire lives.
People… are merely people in all the world.
They have several stages in their lives:
First as babies desiring comfort and care.
Then as school boys or girls, without will in life.
Then come the lovers, like all lovers with broken hearts…
And as an adult, without peace in their lives.
People… are merely people in all the world.
Life passes by… and soon old age comes.
Very soon they reach their sixties, their seventies.
The age of wisdom, the age of knowledge.
Wishing to return to the time of their childhood,
Desiring as before the same comfort, the same care…
BUT BEING FORGOTTEN

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...
LOVERS IN LOVE
Breath of LifeI will cry out one day like a lover in love,With the same force when Spring comes,Covering once more trees with newly born leaves,And bringing life to the huge flourishing fresh fields. I will cry out one day like a lover in love,With the same intensity...
