I never knew life out of the desert.
I remember the heat and my father never turning on the AC
how the winters were dry, just like the summer.
It hailed once in 2009. And I built a hailman.
Life so dry and isolated in the valley’s of California.
I didn’t know life out of the dry.
until i jumped
and i swam away into the only pool of water
found in the radius of this dry island
then i felt like i was in the ocean and i could get lost
i was no where near Perris
i got lost.
i wandered to a town where people said your dreams can come true.
and the camera lights will lead you out of darkness
and all your problems leave you.
and with many companions at your side
after the first year
i seemed to doze off
after the second
i seemed to give up
after the third year
i seemed to forget
After the fourth year
it seemed i should just be normal
It washed and faded
every thing I thought I could do
Reality hit and i was no longer what i fought to do
the dreams have shattered.
the ships have sailed
the mic has fallen
and the time I had
is now meant for the next
Who think they can have a chance at it
but on the last year
Something happened
that only happens in your head
the place you’ve dreamed about
The place you heard of
and seen in the movies
heard of in the books
The place where
it all started.
the greatest city in the world.
you some how managed to go to New York
Where not just hard work conquered all
but a giant stew brewed
with a blend of elegance and history
you wont ever find any where else
Do things that make you feel alive.
the cold. I didn’t think thats how cold would feel.
i remember the snow falling
for the first time i was experiencing snow
snow flakes bouncing off our cheeks and onto our jackets
Central park, love you are so magnificent my dear.
time stood still and the leaves sang
the wind shook the world around us
and left me spinning
such elegance and intelligence in one town i would choose this city
over a human being
if i could
i would choose to grow with you
i choose the art
i choose the culture
i choose the history
i choose to grow into a story of all this
just so that one day
i may feel like i belong there.
its hard to be alone in Los Angeles but i would choose to be alone with you
i never fit in to any place but 5 days you gave me and 5 days i fell in love with the place where the world connected
my mind connected. just like the ports and the ships
it all landed in my mind
rearranging what i want my life to be
I Choose to leave the warmth
the beaches
the tv lights
the actors
The hiking
all for the suits and the ties
all for the coffee
and the pizza
the subways
The endless walking
that seems to go unnoticed along the
life around you.
the concrete jungle
where your pocket full of dreams is always with you
and i heard if you make it here.
you make it anywhere
New York you are my home
you are a stranger
who made me believe that love exists
at the first glance
And i will never forget you
as long as i live
you are one of the greatest creations God has built
gold crown or not
you won.
