Conversación real

Quiero tener una conversación real contigo.

De esas en las que no te dan miedo los silencios que puedan darse, porque no significan vacíos que deben llenarse por incomodidad, sino instantes de conexión más profunda.

Me gustaría que tuviéramos el tiempo para que el tiempo no sea un motivo para detenernos. Que no haya nada por definir, aclarar o demostrar, simplemente un deseo sincero de conocer más del otro: lo que cambió con el tiempo, lo que se mantuvo.

Pienso constantemente en el espacio ideal, la música de fondo perfecta, incluso la ropa que llevaría puesta. Imagino lo cómodo que se sentiría compartirte mi historia y escuchar la tuya. Lo mucho que quisiera conocer el camino que recorriste hasta hoy y regalarte mi atención completa.

Quisiera tener el valor para decirte que estoy aquí si me necesitas, que siempre estuve, pero tenía miedo y por eso busqué tu mirada, para luego esquivarla.

Yell Fire!

Imagen
Yesterday I read a post called “10 things rapists look for” and something caught my eye: “If you’re being attacked, yell: fire!. It’s more likely to get a reaction from people around you if you say this than screaming for help”. Wait, are we…“there”? Is our society really that cold-hearted that when someone’s in danger, now they also have to think the best way to ask for help? Is that how we get people’s attention? yelling something others find really dangerous for themselves, like a fire? Because, otherwise, it’s way too risky to help? Is that selfish? or maybe it’s just how the human brain works and a common reaction? By this time I was too shocked to think clearly and could only imagine me flying up to the sky, to see the whole city from up above. Tiny houses, streets getting thinner as I kept rising. And just like a GPS app, thousands of warning pop-ups saying: Fire! Fire! Fire! Considering my country is in third place on rape statistics and violence against women. Where 76...

Loving Princess Leia

Imagen
She was barely 2 months old when my boyfriend adopted her. We named her Leia, like the princess. She is a Red Nose Pitbull, white and caramel. I often say she looks like a Cinnamon Roll. When we are watching TV on the bed, she always jumps in between us and her white hair never leaves your black pants or jackets. She likes to lay next to me, bit with her butt on my face. When I tell her to switch sides, she ignores me, but when I say: DOWN! She immediately turns around and literally hugs me. Every time we leave the house, she howls and the whole building hears her. “Your dog cried all day,” said a note we found under the door one time we left her for 2 hours. She is way too needy, she doesn’t know how to be alone, but she is the reason my boyfriend’s happier than ever. When she turned 3 years old we found a male Pitbull for her named Draco, whose head's like 3 times bigger than Leia’s. A few weeks later, the vet confirmed Leia was pregnant. Her belly got bigger and bigg...
