| | Lost in translationPage 1 of 2 (1, 2) | A leaf (first poem)
If I was a leaf in the air, would you try to catch me?
-Would you squeeze me tight till I lay flat?
-Would bruise me until I fall apart?
-Or would you lay me close to your heart?
If I was a leaf in the air
-Would you watch me dance for you?
-Would you follow me till I fall for you?
If I was a leaf in the air, then would I really care? | |

Please give this season rhyme to "why"
Whether or not the grace is there,
We pony up and get scripture to where
Scripture says what ever it must,
In the realm of myth and dust
Yet the leaf is too, such
The lady beneath knitteth much
The currency of thought and religion extraordinaire
Is to rewrite the foolish questionnaire of riddle and dare
Put the story straighter than before,
Tell me softly,
"She made man lore." | |

I am like a turtle, I have a shell,
As soon as I am touched, I hide very well.
My shell is warmth and protection,
For I am fragile and need affection.
One day you might take my shell away, but I will be ok,
As you will be my warmth and protection,
Even if I am fragile, I will have your affection. | |

Posted: 5/19/2012 9:35:26 PM | To him,
Today was your birthday,
So we baked a cake for you.
She blew the candle of what could have been your 45th birthday….
She loves you but, I hate you for what you did to her;
you did hurt us like no other.
We smile but inside I cry ,
for she will never be able to say goodbye.
Other dads fight to see children of their own,
One day I woke up and I was all alone.
She is a fatherless child so I try to love her for two,
And she has your eyes, hair and moody morning too.
The truth is that you abandoned her,
She was so young, she doesn’t remember.
But life goes on and you stayed behind,
Through my memory she will know how wonderful of a man I did find.
And I will silent my bitterness
As I my voice will only whisper tenderness. | |

The Sea
Alone in a sea if souls I swim against the current.
No lighthouse to direct my soul but that urge to follow my path.
The current is strong but I am like an anchor;
Is there a boat at the end of my rope?
It would be so easy to go with the flow,
Let go of my dream and forget my sorrow.
But my soul has no rest for I long of a shore
Where no one has been before.
Will you follow me? | |

Posted: 5/22/2012 9:47:29 PM | The roller coaster of life
Life is like a roller coaster,
Sometimes we have highs, sometime we have lows,
But we enjoy the ride and we say Ho!
Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry,
We feel on top of the world or about to pry,
But if we know that for every low there is a high
Then we enjoy our time and feel like we can fly.
We all know that there is an end to the ride
So let’s enjoy our time on the roller coaster of life. | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 12:10:28 AM | I'm a constant fire engulfed by the thoughts of your skin.
I feel you so intensely that when you pain i howl at the moon.
Undressed by my devils i'm always thinking of what you meant.
No reason to consider this day any less wasted then yesterday - You're an influence.
I don't know how to consider you any less or anything other then an punishment.
You knew I'd always think of you -
You knew i'd always reach for you -
You knew i'd walk away from you -
It's not something I wanna say..
It's not something i wanna save..
You're the reason I bleed inside falling away from Mickey's jagged sky.
You wash over these flames of mine..
You bring your skin closer to mine...
You knew I'd always think of you -
You knew i'd always reach for you -
You knew i'd walk away from you -
Nothing for you to accomplish here ..
Nothing left for you here.. | |

| The old couple
Posted: 5/23/2012 9:44:05 PM | I see this old couple crossing the street,
Hand in hand and with stumbling feet,
So weak but yet so strong,
For they have each other to hold on,
They have been together forever
And have grown old together
For each other they are lover, friends and caregiver
They have created a lifetime of memories that they cherish forever
And if one day one of them go,
They are not scared because they know,
That on the other side he or she will wait the other at the door,
To meet our creator.
I dream of being one day one of them,
Holding the hand of my soul mate like them
But for now I know that despite my youth and wellness,
If am alone, I will never be richer than them. | |

| Drums
Posted: 5/25/2012 10:12:52 PM | Follow the beat, follow the flow,
Don’t think, just let it go.
My heart skips a beat with the sound of the drums,
I didn’t know beating a sheep could be so much fun.
Body moves to the rhythms of the hand,
I feel like my feet do not touch the land.
The others do not see
The state of trance I am in
I close my eye,
Stop to think.
Just follow the beat of my heart...or the drums
Who cares, I am having so much fun! | |

| Confused
Posted: 5/26/2012 9:10:29 PM | I am lost in my thoughts,
Don’t know what to think or were to go,
I am just told to go with the flow,
But my heart and mind fights.
What if this is not what I want,
I want to shake the tree ,
The passionate woman in me wants to be free,
Maybe I am just not meant to be in this land.
I want to listen, hear and talk,
I want to just go for a walk,
But this is not my decision,
Maybe it is just god’s vision.
Giving time is hard for I can’t wait
Isolated I am, is this my fate?
Moments are so sweet
But are they just treats?
But being me, I will not cry, I will not scream
Just shut my mouth and stay with my dreams. | |

| Touch me
Posted: 5/28/2012 9:42:15 PM | Touch me mother,
Comfort me and sooth my tears ,
Rock me slowly and calm my fears,
Chase away all the monsters.
Touch me father,
Teach me all you know about life,
Protect me from the nightlife,
Keep me away from the lovers.
Touch me my friend,
Share with me all the good times,
In all I do be my partner in crime,
And if we fight we will always mend.
Touch me my lover,
Give me pleasure with your hands,
Show me treasures and other lands,
Be mine forever.
Touch me my child,
Bring me joy and happiness,
With you my life will be endless,
And I hope you will give me a grandchild.
The touch of a hand is a small pleasure in life
that makes every moment worthwhile. | |

| Touch me

Posted: 5/29/2012 6:27:58 AM | I'm a bear without claws
Mother Earth betrayed me
I'm a hawk without wings
my crash to earth is eminent
then into dirt I burrow like a rabbit
sedate my soul with thoughts of her
as I slumber conjure the past
like no animal can do
this is the only time I'm human
when I hear her satin bluesy rasp
she says "baby you're here"
and I wake up an incomplete animal once again | |

| Let it grow
Posted: 6/1/2012 9:30:00 PM | Love is like a seed,
It needs time to grow.
Be impatient, intransigent, foolish,
And it will not flourish.
But give it time,
Give it space,
Give it care and attention,
And it will grow.
The seed of love doesn’t need money,
It doesn’t even need tears from the sky,
But the best fertilizer,
Is the desire for each other.
And with enough patience and attention,
It will bring happiness to those
Who cultivate the seed of love.
(I hope lots of seeds will grow on POF this summer!) | |

| I feel for you
Posted: 6/4/2012 9:40:08 PM | My heart is heavy for you,
I feel your pain,
And there is nothing anybody can do.
You have passed all the tests,
Now this is the ultimate one.
Children carry part of our heart,
I guess being away, you will have to live without.
They do not remember how many hours they spent with us,
But they remember how much fun they had.
So do not fear the lack of time,
For the weeks will fly by,
And she will look forward to her days with you. | |

| Alone
Posted: 6/5/2012 9:10:55 PM | Alone in my bath, I dream of your hands,
Gently caressing me,
Making me feel like a women.
Your kisses on my neck,
Awake in me hidden desires,
And makes me want to taste you again.
That freckle linger in my mind,
I want to kiss it and bite it again.
I look for your scent,
Like an addict look for its drug.
I dream of those moments we will have,
Your voice whispering to me hidden desires.
Lying against you,
I will not feel alone again. | |
|
| Leaving
Posted: 6/7/2012 7:39:13 PM | When I left you last night,
It felt like goodbye,
And my heart wanted to cry,
but I longed for us to reunite.
I guess life is throwing at us a test,
We will know if it meant to be,
Or if the distance will set us free,
But I wish for the best.
I hope that we will grow stronger,
And that we will soon share more good moments together.
But for now do what you must do,
And I will be here beside you. | |

| my child
Posted: 6/10/2012 9:41:16 PM | I would have watched my tummy growing,
Waiting impatiently for you to arrive,
your kicks would have made me feel like I was glowing,
Reassuring me that you were alive.
Your birthday would have been a day of celebration,
Meeting you for the first time would have been so much joy,
You could have been the result of love and passion,
Your sister would have been so happy to meet this new boy.
I would have given you all my love,
Raised you with all my attention,
And maybe your father would have told you how to use a baseball glove,
You would have been surrounded with affection.
You probably would have made your sister mad,
Misbehaving like every child,
Maybe you would have looked like your dad,
Or being like me, playing all the time into the wild.
But the years pass by and you do not arrive,
Life is such that it isn’t meant to be,
We will miss you in our lives,
For you are the son that I will never have. | |

| Why?
Posted: 6/13/2012 8:49:02 PM | My friend, you called me and I was happy
But why did you say those things to me?
You didn’t have to remind me of my situation
I know it already
You didn’t have to tell me how far away I am from my family
I know that already
You didn’t have to mention that I have no support
I face that every day
Stop reminding me how strong I need to be
For I have no choice
You made me feel worse,
You made me feel sad,
When all I wanted was to talk to you about my happy times…. | |
|
| Why?
Posted: 6/14/2012 2:50:47 PM | Wordy warrior resting by crossroad
How may I help lift this heavy load
Tell you tales of battles well fought
Weigh the value of goals I've sought
With sword sheathed and shield unbroken
This gentle knight was still soft spoken
Kind traveler show us a way to join forces
In pastures with fresh water for our horses | |

| Three years
Posted: 6/20/2012 9:05:43 PM | Three years day for day,
I found you ,
And I lost you forever.
I loved you with all my heart,
And death pulled us apart.
Three years day for day,
You resigned without warning,
And I was only left with a ring.
The flash back from that day,
Whatever I do, they will never go away.
Three year day for day,
I touched you for the last time,
And you were cold.
It is so hard to say goodbye,
But I feel I have, over the last three year,
Shed enough tears for you.
Now it is time for me to live my life,
And leave you behind.
Goodbye and rest in peace…. | |
