letter to my sister


Hello,

How are you doing? Well I hope that everything is well with you…….lol…I know you are going to start laughing and telling me “ it’s a letter but you did not have to write it in that format you nerd”…..lol. I know but it’s kind of funny anyways..
The first time I met you I though you were a little chunky cute baby….lol but there was something else that I saw in you a determined stubborn kid… don’t laugh.. but it’s true…once I came here and we started living together well I continue seeing that kid….just growing up….into a stubborn little girl…lol…determine and only God knows that once you were doing something there was nothing or nobody that could take you away from it. All through that time I was hoping that you would grow up and be the best that you could be. I used to tell you how to dress and what books to look at and what TV shows to watch because I wanted for you to be better than me.. and here we are 15 years later after the first year that I met you. You are still stubborn and dedicated. And that dedication has taken you to this glorious day your culmination of high school. It’s funny and a bit sentimental to think that you grew up so fast….was it a couple of years ago when you saw me off to college?, well now It’s your turn. I have always known that you are an intelligent kid, and that you could achieve whatever you want in this world, no matter what obstacles are in your way you will prevail and you will see through them. I know that for sure. That same stubbornness of the little girl 15 years ago still prevails but now instead of playing with dolls and trying to stay within the lines whenever she colored, has been transformed into reading books of 200 and more pages until the weee hours of night, and into a meticulous critic of current events and our so so erroneous political system….lol…and the many many ways that we could better this world if only your ideas were to be heard. I just want to let you know that I am very proud of you no matter what happens, what you do, where you go I will always be proud of you. Today it’s just a little stepping stone to a better tomorrow and to an adventure that will be both hard and joyful. Congratulations in your High school Graduation.

Your sis.
Rocio.

your bitter sweet memories

could somebody really forget the past, totally utterly and completely, I sometimes wonder, and just a song reminds me of you and your sweet smile and your tender caress.
Why is it that when i try the most to forget you i remember you the best, is if i try to loose your memories in this heart of mind or is it my mind?

oh que brillantes y bonitos estos pensamientos y recuerdos de nuestras aventuras de aventureros. De nuestras caminatas de caminantes y de muchos muchos amantes entre tu y yo. la verdad es que tu dulce boca ardiente de almendra y azucar mentia y mentia por ver mi corazon de marzapan y vainilla bailar de alegria. Oh! pero que gran tonteria el de mi gran amor.

Es que tu vida de ramera se me cuelga y me hiere el corazon de quimera.
los brazos que algun dia me abrazaron, los labios que algun dia me besaron besan y abrazan a tantos a muchos a todos a nadie y terminan por desear aquello que se tuvo y hoy no tendras.

oh tentadora, pobre ruisenora, senorita de mis amores me tocas el pelo, me rozas el alma y me dejas con un centavo de limosna mientras yo me arrodillo y le pido a Dios me de piedad y paciencia para perdonarte el haberme roto el corazon.
