Inhaltsangabe

Ignacio started writing as a way to express what he was experiencing. He grew up in sunny Southern California. At a young age he lived with his parents and siblings in Baldwin Park, Ca. As a teenager they all moved to West Covina where he went to Workman High School and had friends that were close enough to inspire him. Starting at a young age there were many words written with a chance to be cherished by close friends and family. By placing himself in the moment and absorbing the feelings around him, he has captured those things that many people think and wish to express but can't find a way. There is true emotion within each word and phrase. There are pictures that develop in the mind to represent what each word is describing. A vision of words that can be read and felt with the not only the mind but the heart.

Chapter One

           Love


            In My Childhood

    Nothing could make me happier than being the person you fell in love with
    since day one.
    And even though we can call each other, ones soul mate; we are worlds
    apart.
    Some call me a fool for being such a loving person; I don't care, love has
    always kept me young.
    With you, there was something special in your gaze when your lips caressed
    my broken heart.

    One day I took a stroll down memory lane.
    In it, I found my childhood admiring so freely.
    Everything from the breeze, the streets, the schools, the trees, all remains the
    same.
    The only thing that has changed has been me.
    I was lost once, did not know what the future held when I ran away.
    I was confused; I was devastated to the point of no return.
    All I wanted was to be in your arms and for you to tell me everything would
    be ok.
    I need you now more than ever; patience is not my virtue, but a quality I need
    to learn.

    In my childhood; I don't know why I can still remember this,
    I wondered who I'd keep safe, living through all those wonderful years.
    In life, I knew all kinds of love, but I wondered if true love could actually
    exist.
    Then one day you appeared and whispered; "I love you so much", in my ears.


            May 1, 2010

    One year ago today I saw my life flash before my eyes.
    You walked in through the door and had the most amazing laugh.
    And though your reluctance to notice me was like a thousand
    knives; my life would never be the same. It's filled with memories;
    it all began with the memory of your photograph.

    Was it the dozen roses that filled your office the following day?
    Or was it because you were still in love with me?
    In hindsight, does it really matter why you are with me today?
    You love me more than I could ever ask for. The same principles
    apply in life as they do in love; there is no guarantee.

    Was it the fear of losing you to another man who would hold you
    at night as you fall asleep?
    Was it the fear of losing my soul mate when you were within reach?
    Was it fear in knowing I could love you more than anyone else in the world?
    Was it fate when I received a phone call when I was reminiscing at the
    beach?

    Was it fear in knowing you were slipping through my finger tips?
    Was it fear of the unknown that drove me to your front door?
    Would you open it? Would you take that chance? At that moment;
    I didn't know; but I never wanted to look back and regret not
    saying, "I need you as much as you need me, if not more."


             A Beauty Like You

    What have I done to deserve a beauty like you?
    I don't remember doing anything considered to be worthy.
    What have I done to kiss a beauty like you?
    I feel the need when I'm with you to act like no one but me.
    In you, I find myself wanting you more and more.
    In you, I want to give you everything inside of me.
    I want you to know that fear does not exist anymore.
    What have I done to meet a spirit so free?
    So many wrongs in my life I need to answer for.
    But by God's grace he has given my heart your beauty.
    He has given me the chance to love again like before.
    By chance we met and so I consider myself so lucky.
    A spirit blessed; a spirit released; a spirit to adore.
    A beauty like you; a free spirit like me
    I want to love you more than I can possibly love.
    Could there be so much love I can offer you?
    I'm willing to let myself be vulnerable for you.
    I'm willing for a beauty like you to go deep in my heart.
    I'm willing to take a chance where two roads meet.
    All I know is that with you my life is complete.


            On The Horizon

    The rising fog burns off slowly on the horizon with every passing hour.
    As the sun breaks through, the colors grow brighter; the roses are a bloom with
    every other beautiful flower.
    The aroma of life travels across the hills with the wind touching my soul.
    And with every breath, and with every step I take, my love for her melts away
    all the snow.

    She stares at me with those caramel eyes.
    She lifts me up whenever I'm feeling down.
    She provides me a passionate kiss from where the wind cleared the skies.
    No need to worry, I'm in her arms as she wears her wedding gown.

    My heart feels younger as my body gets older with every smile I take.
    Where did all the time go?
    I feel the knees tearing with every birthday cake.
    It doesn't matter; every day is new, every kiss is tender,
    Every hug is stronger, and with every good-bye; I receive a hello.

    When I travel...
