A street lamp lit the house of Tomasa, a Boricua who had arrived in town on vacation from Ponce Puerto Rico, but smitten by the heat East Village had gone to live forever. She was the torment of Sergeant Perez and Paulino Rojas Guerrilla penalty.
For the sergeant, his life was like a car driven by her, he was just a passenger led nowhere. _The

the morning, she picked up the porch of her home two gifts, a bouquet of wild flowers cut from the hill and a red rose stolen from a house in the city, she laughed. _ Damn! These guys fuck pal Sistan.
Paulino Rojas fell before sunrise, left a bouquet of wreaths at his door and returned to the hill uphill writing your name on the fallen leaves of the trees. Sometimes typos left letters written on the canvas in the afternoon, redundant, hoping that you say them both open a gap and lead him into his arms.
He could not believe everything in matters of love, I had never loved as he loved Boriqua, Tomasa, was his first love.
The thought with him on the mountain, where the sun slips into the streams and death hangs around with drums on dusty roads. Two wars fought
these Men, on the homeland and the love of a woman How often forget that the fight put them face to face? Rojas still had on his shirt bummer hole that got him the sergeant and the military, even limping on his right leg by shrapnel from a grenade he launched the guerrilla.

The sergeant was more consistent with the operations on the hill, trying to down one day with the body Rojas drawn, contrary to this, come back with their own dead on the back of the recruits.
_Algún day I get off a good shot to the fucking subversive _It said Perez. _When
these outposts fall, she will be mine alone and together sell lots heaven to live the days we are _ said the guerrilla.

Sergeant Perez I wanted to burn down the hill to take off like rats from their burrows to the guerrillas. Winter came to camp guerrinche wetting the words and whipped with hurricane-like storms in the mountains. The death raised the flag in the trenches and fire spat regiments rump of the hill. _A

Rojas _ Why not look at this side? Here I am I've loved since complained siempre._ Meche, guerrilla companion Paul, had saved my skin many times, did not mind dying for.
kisses La Meche silences drowned and died in the mountains of sorrow and heartbreak.
There were times I wanted a regiment throw open her heart to empty all that feeling that he drowned.
Rojas knew
But what could I do? His heart was for Boriqua, those flirtations of a bitch in heat I had good asshole. Each day he left the trench of the camp and fell in secret, to leave by the door, a bunch of intent to cut into the sides of his soul and a subversive poem written by the brush of the forest.

Los Temerarios Eres Un Sueño, the indifference of Vicente Fernandez, among others ...
The fit in these boleros indifference and did not realize there was a third, Soriano Pelon, sell mother drunk bum without a job and no canteen. God makes no mistakes were made for each other. It came without waiting in line and left apendejada.

How sad! Boriqua imagine the rolling with another, the bald white meat gave those who were always in an attitude of surrender, but never arrived and dressed fools. That love was always a maybe, one can not be and it was not from the beginning.
From betrayal, black flowers and strawberries seemed bitter. Prisoners were crying until picked up the trail of their sentences and decided to forget it. Rojas broke the ticket I had to go to heaven and returned to earth to embrace his rifle, his only companion in agony.
Sergeant Perez was delivered to the chest of Chupaderos, his drinking led to the trench, the moon, heard their cries and looked through her tears and stones, occasionally, the night passed before his eyes trying to seduce him dressed in miniskirts. Lights as prostitutes times people offered him. he preferred the dark corners, the corners of a bar, the solitude of the river that was growing in his eyes.

Ambushes were ready since then and the sidewalks were mined, eager to cut off the legs of the battalion.
_Ahí regiment dogs come _Dijo La Meche aiming his AK 47, and if I die this day, to say it in the press, who suffered from dementia by amarte_ He shouted to Rojas.
_Perdóname, Tu I'd avoid that pain.
_Aun loving too late to Paulino. Q: If we
