Simplicity

written by: Leila Ziari

Move me with simplicity
The tingling of the summer breeze
The echoes of tranquility
A conspiracy against instability

Move me with this certainty
That I belong to you
And you belong to me
No convoluted facts—it’s easy

Move me with your soul
The warmth of your heart that shatters the cold
The fireplace in the midst of showers of snow
In a world of unknowing, you I always know

Words can be riddles
But loving you is simple
Like oceans and their ripples
Your spirit makes me feel whole

Shadows of New York by Francisco Bravo Cabrera

One day I sat and listened to the choirs of Babel.
It took me back to when I painted shadows in New York
which cast skyscrapers high above your garden.
And I wondered if an island, in the seas of nowhere,
would have served as shelter if our ship should sink.

Did a siren with her song lead you so far away from home,
and has that made you forget me?
Have you removed the old tattoos?
Did you forget the sailing trips?
Was it because Manhattan’s winds destroyed your jib?...
