'Twixt night and morning
is eternity of hope
in suffering.

Life's river white
waters flowed over
rocks so treacherous
few survived
even fewer were willing
to take it for the whole ride

but you

You must have learned
how to
at an early age
to navigate the
roughest of terrain
to emerge into a
circular eddy
of love's refrain
around and around

You were anointed
to absorb other's pain
through the power of your empathy
all you could see was
their hallowed name
the essence of being
their spirit still remained
as you circled round
and round love's
true refrain

Routines and rituals
household shared
you invited them all in.

My wish for you
is to break free
to find another
circling
in their own eddy
of love's refrain
to hold you close
to know you more
to cherish all
those dreams you
left at the shore
before you jumped into
that river.

everyone knows I'm pretty
most know I'm smart
my parents know that my voice is like and angel singing to the people of heaven
and everyone knows I'm stick thin
no one knows how hard it is to look this way.
you must weigh yourself every day
you have workout 3 times a day
and most important of all you must remember that pretty girls don't eat

one day ill open my soul to you the way tulips blossom in the warmth of spring.
one day my walls will deteriorate like paper left in rain water
and when "one day" comes I'll love you the way you love me

They make us feel
less than human,
use us as robots
for selfish needs
& though we love
what it is they do,
we still will always wonder
who they really are.

Amor mío; tan mío... estamos juntos.
Juntos desde la ropa a las raíces.
Juntos desde el otoño a las nubes grises.

Desde los latidos a las caderas.
Desde un simple segundo hasta una compleja vida entera.
Estamos juntos.

Juntos los dos.

Y le repetí: "Ven conmigo" como si me muriera.
Y no se dio cuenta que en mi boca la luna se desangraba por ella.

Y le recité mil poemas y le rogué que no se fuera.
Mientras que en su boca el sol se apagaba y las estrellas en el cielo formaban hileras.

Ni separados por trenes o ciudades.
Ni por mares o muertes o adversidades.
Estamos juntos.

Juntos los dos.

Quédate luna.
Quédate sol.

Y mueran en nosotros ésta noche; que ésta noche estamos juntos los dos.

I'm glad
finally
you
once thought
to think
about me
before
your ego....

i hope
one day
soon
you will know
how much
you mean
to me,
in my life....

you are
the love of
my life
and
you are
the life of
my love

here your only memory lies
from your funny stories
to your lovely lullabies.
from the times that we laughed
and the times we cried.
we went through all of this just to say goodbye.
but in my heart you will always be
till the day I die and see you in front of me

big brown eyes
full lips
rich skin tone
gorgeous white smile
intoxicating cologne
why do you do this to me?
you make yourself so desirable,
but yet I cant have you.
when you look at me your eyes don't sparkle the way mine do, even when I see a picture of you.
just like my grandmother you to sing to me:
"you are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
you make me happy, when skies are gray.
you'll never know thee, how much I love you.
please don't take my sunshine away"
please release me of the shackles of your embrace.
your personality is a fountain of gold and silver.
you light up my day better than the sun does....Wow.
why don't you love me?
