I write poetry on my days away from / Boxing. Poetry is my hobby and my second love. / Boxing is my first. / I use both arts to express my emotions
The man takes a drink And the drink takes a man

Too hard to swallow
I draw a smile on my face every day. On the end of the day I erase it. The next day I draw another smile. I keep the routine. Continuously I draw and erase Eventually burn a hole.

Non genuine expression
We are here to lose Our minds Our bodies Our materials And our identities But not our souls

Not lost
He lashed his anger upon me Bruised my flesh with every hatful word My love for him still stayed strong My back endured all the pain and It stood stronger as he became frail He could not raise his fist nor speak I did not act on retribution   Tho it was my turn to raise my hand And my voice What I did was bath him so he can clean his soul feed him sweet warm food to help him speak Gentle words What came to his tongue words I never heard “Forgive me” for I did, the moment after I baptized you

Love is the Worst Pain
cruse la frontera Cruse el mar Contra las tormentas Todo para tu mirar No mi pararon las balas de un güero Por tu amor mi converti en tu Guerrero Cruse la frontera por ti mi Mexicana Para que vivemos juntos en nuestra Casablanca

Amor Sin Fronteras
I want you to know when I leave this world I won’t truly leave you I could not vanish completely The love I gave you was magic But I could never disappear myself from your heart

Magician
Right at midnight All I saw was red and blue. all I felt was nothing but the metal on my wrists and the hard plastic seat. They parked the car outside a large building. They laid me down and strapped me on the bed. As time goes by I forgot how long I’ve been in this room they put me in. Not allowing me to roam. I believe two or three nights. For I believe the third day they moved me to a new room. I called it the musical chairs. We all were stuck on our on islands screaming and laughing all we could. They gave us pills as some called them candies to keep us happy. For two nights we stayed seated in these chairs not a single toe touching the floor. For who did touch the floor were dancers who performed without music. the music stopped and that meant for me to find another seat. I was given a scrub to wear. And a room with two beds.   I stayed alone with a stranger. Not speaking to each other not even a single word. only screams were heard coming out of both of us. They’d wake us up and force us to make our bed, to take a shower. To eat breakfast and drown us In chocolate. I Saw a man get dragged and injected with a needle. For he acted violently towards the security. Just cause he didn’t want to drink his milk. On scheduled days I would talk to a doctor on how i was feeling. If I was feeling anything. I forgot how long I have been in this building. I forgot the sounds of the outside world. I felt like I was in a routine. I loved it. the feeling of living the same day. Not expecting anything different the next day. My mind ran like a robot.  I was running on a program in my head not having to force anything like emotions. but in this place you find someone who finds the hidden emotion like love. She wasn’t meant for the building. Not even for the outside world. She had her own world made for her. Her mind ran faster and her movements as well. let’s just call her Loons. Loons had hair like gold and eyes like the ocean. Her skin was pale like a ghost. But her lips were pink. And they felt soft. as they let us watch the Grammys for it was November or December. It was cold but loons kept me warm through out my cold time. She kept me company. But As everything ends as it’s suppose to. She was moved away to another part of the building. I was left with the screams and the jokers. About three months passed. I was released and I heard and saw everything I had not seen in so long. The sky was brighter and the noises were louder. Even the wind blew faster and stronger. It was difficult to stand on my two feet. The world outside was something I didn’t miss. If I could be locked up in this building again I would. Time went on and I haven’t forgotten her. Not a single day without thinking of her face. For she haunts the back of my head. she keeps me awake at night. And I think of her. It’s been 10 years and I haven’t forgotten. And I know I won’t forget.

I wonder if you love me I want to know  if it’s true For I have been casted out of heaven And now are sent to the deepest pit onto the earth Will you fall for me still even when the fall is for eternity will you love me Forever

Lucifer’s love
Dear stranger, I don’t remember who I am. I’ve done the best I ever can, But I have travelled more than two steps back To reach my shadow  Of whom I once was. Stranger don’t you cry. Don’t you shed a tear. My feelings for you stranger are still the same . I might not know you, But I love and adore you; for I am now a stranger to you too and you love me all the same. You call me husband, then I’ll call you wife. Don’t you dare make me remember your name. I am lost,  that I understand. Kiss my cheek and hold my hand. I promised to love you that’s all I know. I’ll love you forever no matter the time. The evidence on our rings show.

Memories with no time
The love of my father was boxing seeing my father slicing The wind with his bare hands Shadow boxing by his lonesome Like if he was fighting the wind The wind was his sparring partner the sounds of his fists cutting through the air I saw the violence and art my dear father moves slower After many decades his punches have lost its sound and his movement has lost rhythm of time the wind has beaten him over the years it has taken my father all he’s had to fight His last fight   Even the wind has taken the last wind out of him
