The Aftermath

So I'll follow the wind 
where it leads me today 
through the valley of silence 
I'll make my own home way 
and when the day is done and the sun sinks low 
I'll listen to the whispers and let my soul go

So I'll follow the wind where it leads me today 
through the valley of silence 
I'll make my own way 
and when the day is 
done and the sun sinks slow 
I'll listen to the whispers and let my soul go

So I'll follow the wind where it leads me today 
through the valley of silence 
I'll make my own way. 


I'll follow the wind

VERSE 1
You came to me in a fevered light
Veiled in silk and ancient rites
Eyes like scripture, breath like wine
You whispered: "You were always mine"

PRE-CHORUS
And I kneeled, trembling, to receive
A kiss, a curse, a new belief
Your touch — it split my soul in two
One half for me… the rest for You

CHORUS
I built an altar in my chest
Lit candles where your name would rest
You're not love, you're a god disguised
And I’m your lamb, crucified
Possess me whole, no in-between
Worship hurts when it feels this clean
So take my voice, my blood, my spine
Make me yours
Divine

VERSE 2
I wear the marks you left behind
Like holy wounds that cleanse my mind
Your silence speaks in tongues I crave
You bless me deeper than the grave

PRE-CHORUS
My prayers decay in your caress
I beg for pain, I beg for less
But heaven bends beneath your weight
And I collapse beneath my fate

CHORUS
I built an altar in my chest
Lit candles where your name would rest
You're not love, you're a god disguised
And I’m your lamb, crucified
Possess me whole, no in-between
Worship hurts when it feels this clean
So take my voice, my blood, my spine
Make me yours
Divine

BRIDGE
(Whispered)
I tore out every mortal part
To house your throne inside my heart
(Screamed)
Sanctify me — in your fire!
Purify me — take me higher!

FINAL CHORUS
I built an altar in my chest
Lit candles where your name would rest
You're not love, you're a god disguised
And I’m your lamb, crucified
Possess me whole, no in-between
Worship hurts when it feels this clean
So take my voice, my blood, my spine
Make me yours
Divine

OUTRO
Divine... divine...
I was never mine...

ALTAR

Her kiss was honey... thick and slow,
But it burned like fire from the get-go.
Eyes like dusk on a heatwave night,
Told me everything... but not what’s right.

She danced like smoke on a porch light breeze,
Talked ‘bout forever like a southern tease.
I fell for the ghost of who she might be,
Now I’m drinkin' her memory... bitter and free.

Her kiss like fire, but I’d go again,
Even if it leaves me scarred like sin.
She was mercy wrapped in a hurricane —
And I loved her most when she caused me pain.
Yeah, I still feel the spark in the rain…

She left lipstick on my cigarette pack,
Now every drag pulls me right back.
A heart like hers don’t settle or stay,
Just leaves ashes where love used to lay.

I built a home from matchsticks and pine,
She lit it up with a kiss so fine.
Told myself it was fate, not mistake,
But I still taste her every breath I take.

Her kiss like fire, but I’d go again,
Even if it leaves me scarred like sin.
She was mercy wrapped in a hurricane —
And I loved her most when she caused me pain.
Yeah, I still feel the spark in the rain…

Ain’t no map for a heart this lost…
No compass when the needle’s been crossed.
I chased her shadow across that field...
And kissed the flame ‘cause it made me feel.

Her kiss… like fire…
Still burns… under my skin…
Still comes… back again…

What It Takes

A dystopian tale. Con letras

I put my socks in
They disappear
Left a sweater here last year
The machines hum a ghostly tune
Under flickering lights
Neon blue

[Prechorus]
Is it magic or a trap
Are my clothes never coming back

[Chorus]
Lost in the laundromat
Where do my t-shirts go
Lost in the laundromat
It's a mystery
I’ll never know

[Verse 2]
The spin cycle feels like time travel
Shirts and jeans begin to unravel
The dryer’s door a black hole gate
Swallowing fabric
Sealing my fate

[Bridge]
Quarter after quarter
I feed the beast
A feast of cotton
Denim
Fleece
I’m stuck here folding what’s left behind
But the missing pieces haunt my mind

[Chorus]
Lost in the laundromat
Where do my t-shirts go
Lost in the laundromat
It’s a mystery
I’ll never know

Lost in the Laundromat# 7. ( A Project 7)

Verse]
We carved our names on the moonlit stone
Promises whispered where the wild winds moan
You said forever
I said I’d try
We never thought about goodbye

[Prechorus]
Your laugh was thunder
Your touch was fire
We fed the flames of our own desire

[Chorus]
Until we died
We burned so bright
Lit up the dark
Chased off the night
No second chances
No rewinds
We loved like fools
Until we died

[Verse 2]
We danced on rooftops
Broke every rule
Life was a game
And we played the fool
The clock kept ticking
But we stood still
Chasing the rush
Chasing the thrill

[Prechorus]
Your eyes were lightning
Your voice the sea
We drowned in moments
Just you and me

[Chorus]
Until we died
We burned so bright
Lit up the dark
Chased off the night
No second chances
No rewinds
We loved like fools
Until we died

Until We Died

It’s two in the morning, the sirens blare slow,
The avenue shivers in blue and red glow.
Your name comes in crackles like some AM band—
A prayer half-erased by a tremoring hand.

They said you grew feathers, or maybe just fled—
The house in Montclair with the books by the bed.
I still have your postcards, the margins all burned,
That poem you scratched where the page wouldn't turn.

Oh, the silver thread you pulled through the storm,
Tied to my finger to keep myself warm.
And Mary — yes, she’s here — she still waits by the door,
She's always right there and ready for more.

Do you still wear that coat — the one stitched with stars?
The collar all frayed from the backseat of cars.
It smelled like wet cedar and missed subway stops,
You’d vanish for months with your key to the shop.

I dreamt you last night in your Lutheran coat,
You said, “Don’t forgive me, just finish the note.”
And I did, though it bled through the back of the page—
The ink like a memory you couldn’t quite cage.

Oh, the silver thread you wove through your flight,
Lit up like tinsel and burned into night.
And Mary — she still sings in the kitchen at dawn,
But her voice, it has shadows where yours would belong.

Well, what can I tell you, my ghost from the floor?
You left in a hurry, but you haunt even more.
I saw your reflection in windows half-shut,
And the mail you addressed me still smells of burnt 

Oh, the silver thread, it frays where it ends,
But I still wear the knot where your silence extends.
And Mary — she forgives you, and where you have been,
And I… I remember you more than you mean.

Wicker Street

Text:
Verse 1
First cry, first breath, the world begins,
Tiny hands held in your mother’s skin.
Raised by voices, taught by time,
The roots you carry, the place you find.

Verse 2
Schoolyard dreams and questions loud,
What will I be, will I make them proud?
The years roll forward, the answers hide,
But life keeps pushing, a restless tide.

Chorus
This is all, the rise and fall,
The joy, the pain, the weight of it all.
Every soul will stand and crawl,
Until the end, we’re part of all.

(solo)

Verse 3
Your first son cries, and your heart explodes,
You show him proudly to the ones you know.
Parents fading, the torch is passed,
The mirror whispers: nothing lasts.

Verse 4
Leaders change, the flags will burn,
Wars are fought, and still we learn.
In your small world there’s peace to find,
A fragile gift in a fragile time.

Chorus
This is all, the rise and fall,
The joy, the pain, the weight of it all.
Every soul will stand and crawl,
Until the end, we’re part of all.

Bridge
Are you happy, do you feel alive?
In a million stories, we survive.
Every birth, every goodbye,
A single thread in the endless sky.

(solo)

Final Chorus
This is all, the rise and fall,
The crown, the dust, the voice that calls.
We walk, we run, we fight, we stall,
But in the end — we’re part of all.

Outro
Before the answer ever comes,
The circle closes, the song is sung.
And you return, where you belong…
Part of all.

Lyrics :

Your footsteps linger in the dust you left,
A quiet echo where my heartbeat slept.
I reach for shadows that don’t reach back
You disappear and I fall through the cracks.

You fade through me,
Like smoke I can’t keep.
I hold on loosely
But you still leave.

Every night I feel the empty space,
A phantom warmth where you'd lay your face.
I close my eyes, but you don’t stay
Just slip like light that pulls away.

You fade through me,
Like smoke I can’t keep.
I hold on loosely
But you still leave.

If I let go, will I still feel you?
Or will the quiet finally bleed through?

You fade through me,
Like smoke I can’t keep.
I hold on loosely
But you still leave.

Fade Through Me

As an author - composer, I like to sing, with my natural voice or slightly transformed with different devices, according to my mood. I also play all kinds of keyboards and a little bit of 6-string guitars, both acoustic and electric.I'm pretty old, but I've still got a fairly wide vocal range, though it's getting lower and lower.
I also have a small home studio called Vesuvius( thx Sufjan Stevens! )
I like to work alone, or with two or three partners, male or female, highly qualified.
And I get some much fun to discover amazing new talents on Soudcloud. That's why I follow more people than I'm followed by. I'm just too curious..
