Jonas Goncalves Poems

Hey Eduardo!
Your name won't be forgotten.
It will echo through our heads
as well as screams of despair.
...

Without melodies in words,
we modify the wonderful daydream
which one day we doubted exist.
So, sweat drips slowly by the body
...

To Drummond

And now, Carlos?
I had friends, I had family,
...

Among the wagons
I found the affection
which one day made me cry.
And maybe that has never been
...

To Daniel Nunes

Before turning on my heart,
I used to walk in the dark.
...

Yes, my dear, I can be happy.
No, my dear, your words don't scare me.
Yes, my dear, there's a real organ.
No, my dear, it's not metallic like yours.
...

I'm always surrounded
by any people
who never wanted to be happy
in their own destiny.
...

... He didn't want to wait.
He just couldn't wait...

I
...

Everyone lies like I lie.
Everyone feels what I feel.
But no one sees what I see...
...

As human as you.
As real as you.
Just not so happy as you,
because of you...
...

Someday we will rise
until the white clouds
and then from them we will fall down,
because they're fragile when you have them.
...

The wrinkled fingers get dirty
with the dusty objects.
The memories get dirty
when it talks about the wins.
...

By her heart I was welcomed
and although I have never thanked her
she didn't want to me see lost.
...

When the chaos broke out,
I just ran and shouted;
without knowing where to go,
much less who to call.
...

I

We visited that abandoned house.
We shouted our names for nothing.
...

Like a ghost
they start to treat you.
Now you're useless
and, for society,
...

To the pacient poet,
who saw the world falling into perdition,
I, another young, I say to you which nowadays
everything's much more lost.
...

I

Write parnassian verses under my skin,
because today I don't want something meaningful,
...

The word is enough
to love who
was never loved
fervently.
...

I don't know what to be near me
because I spent all my time,
trying to survive the social voracity.
...

The Best Poem Of Jonas Goncalves

Eduardo's Last Words

Hey Eduardo!
Your name won't be forgotten.
It will echo through our heads
as well as screams of despair.
It will invade our hearts
as well as old lovers.

Where are the moments
which stab the chest,
investigate the body
and fill it with sorrow?
Where did they go?
Where are they?

Oh Eduardo!
I can't be courageous;
not after seeing you so cold.
She can't stand upright;
not after having her heart broken.

So much time penetrated the darkness
made you wish one last will;
– almost unreachable, almost in vain...
I hope they know how to be sensitive,
because I really don't know what else I must feel.
Oh too many words dissolved into a simple yearning!
