G. La Torre

I'm half Sicilian, part Spanish and British. I really like being creative,Photography, Drawing & Painting also I like Piercingz, I have 6 in my left ear-Daith,Tragus,Conch,2 Rims and three in the lobes. I had a nipple piecing but it healed up. I think i'm an easy-goin guy, honest,I don't act or try to be someone else but myself and a gentleman.

It is, I think, that we are all so alone in what lies deepest in our souls, so unable to find the words, and perhaps the courage to speak with unlocked hearts, that we don't know at all that it is the same with others.

---------------------------------------------My Place-Gran CanariaAfter a mixture of alcoholic and tropical tastes with the coldness of the ice melting in my mouth from the exotic coloured cocktail, I lean back in the comfortable wicker chair. It was called the Tequila Sunrise, which has a smooth taste with a bit of sharpness at the end. My eyes follow the soft swirl of colours in the glass, colours which remind me of the sky at dawn. I then place it on the table beside me. I feel so relaxed sitting by the bar which has a warm and friendly atmosphere. There is no one around me apart from the pretty barmaid with the sweet smile. The background music is dance. But it€™s slow and pleasant.I then light a big fat cigar with the glowing flame of my lighter. The white smoke drifts around my mouth and I blow slow smoke rings. I feel so good. If I close my eyes I could fall asleep straight away.I can now feel the warm rays of light hitting me as the sun is gradually going down. I feel so light headed from the mixture of the cocktail and the cigar. It is almost as if I am in a dream. I can see a combination of blues and pinks in the sky as the sun is disappearing behind the horizon, slowly turning day into night. I can see the beautiful hues in the sky. I feel emotional when it€™s dusk because I can sense excitement building up for the night in a beautiful way. I have mixed feelings of elation and happiness. It seems to be a climax building up.As it turns to night the island comes to life. Night time is when you party. Time seems to go slowly when you are having fun. I can see millions of lights sparkling in the distance as I overlook the balcony on my right. I can see the whole of the view of Maspalomas, the South of Gran Canaria where everyone seems to be relaxed and happy. I can feel the warmth on my tanned arms from sunbathing earlier in the day.I can now hear the noise of the people talking and laughing in the beautiful Spanish language. It€™s so different here, it€™s Heaven. It€™s the opposite of my life in London at the moment, visiting unique luxurious four star hotels which have shiny marble floors and tinted mirrors everywhere. It also has glamorous fashion shows with beautiful Latin models walking in Versace clothes. I also see giant outdoor swimming pools lit up with shades of aqua, blue, turquoise and green. When I go to my favorite club, China White, I can see happy people everywhere and beautiful tanned and sweet looking chicas dancing on the dance floor. The tempo is hot, fast and hectic and very dramatic and I love it. The girls behind the bar are always polite and wear white which shows off their dark tans. They always smile at me and their white teeth flash as they smile and their eyes glow.This is the place where I want to live. This is the place I feel free and happy. This is the place I feel closer to my father who once lived here.------------------------------------------------------- -----------CYPRUS,LIMASSOL, SUMMER 06
