Oxígeno

Para vivir necesito respirar.
Necesito dar abundantes
inhaladas de oxígeno
para dar paz a mis pulmones.

Con muy poco oxígeno
puedo seguir viviendo,
pero en una eterna agonía
de una asfixia que no llega a su final.

Si debo decidir
entre vivir en la asfixia o morir
yo mismo taparé mi nariz
y exhalaré una última despedida.

Sleep

Esta es mi primera vez escribiendo en inglés. Espero que el sentimiento llegue igual.
This is my first time writing in english. I hope the feeling still gets to you the same way.

I don't want to sleep again.
I don't want to feel life is being taken away from me
while I'm not awake to defend myself.
I don't want to sleep and dream.
I don't want to experience life through my innocent eyes,
having joy on all the things that are so different from the present,
feeling that nothing can go wrong,
feeling that everything is going just right.

I don't want to feel confortable
and live less.
I want to struggle
but live more.

I don't want to sleep again,
'cause I want to feel I'm in control
of my own eternal sleep.
