They are alone
feeling lonely,
making wishes to the stars
asking for a family.

The new orphans
do have a family
a big one.
They built a life,

your chest does not hurt.

The sun blinds your eyes,

you smile at the sky.

Diego Arellano, why are you smiling?

Do you know… Do you understand

Jeffrens always says “Carolina” in his last movements until he cums inside of my mouth. I cannot stop thinking: who is Carolina? His wife’s name is Flor, and I am Diliana. Anyway, his flavor is awful; I swallow all because he likes it and because I prefer it than when...
