what does it feel like to be held
not by another body
not by a set of limbs, a chest, a chin
but
by another soul
what does it feel like
to see truth in another pair of eyes
instead of hidden intentions
instead of absence
what does it feel like
to hear a familiar heartbeat
resounding next to your own
reaching through skin
through bone
two rhythms
indistinguishable
what does it feel like
to write poems about
a love that exists

this word love,
heavy with import, alternatively,
falsely called out too breezily,
diminished by over-usage,
till you admit it doesn’t fit
like your formerly fav pair of jeans
stretched, too many stains,
cut for a different body,
a different soul,
a different existence,
a former you
*so when the mind and mouth
glimpse a synchronized synapse,
and just ‘bout ready to let the “L”
bomb slip past the guardians of
your own galaxy, you nick time,
modify it to a moderate, but yet
fulfill your need with a differentiated
four letters.*
(“Cariño para ti.”)
“Care for you.”

I don't like brief talks.
I like long conversations.
About anything and everything.
Provided they are
long and deep
and they are had with,
the right Woman.
Long conversations are priceless,
especially when the Woman,
has a Beautiful Mind
and a Passionate Soul.
It's the Twenty First Century,
way of making Love.

The art of procrastination, is to not care at all.
What a fool I am?
To assume I could do nothing at all,
other than worry.

Does desire make you happy
or do they take away
the existing happiness?

I despise myself for not being someone you could love.

Life is not race,
Pace yourself and appreciate ,
What you have been gifted.
And, breathe.

i am not ashamed of the parts
you saw of me
you should be ashamed
of what you did with them
