Guatemalan I was born and raised in California. I have been writing poetry since I was 8 years old. Poetry will always and forever be a huge part of my life. Day in and day out I think about how to put words and phrases together to make them sound beautiful;
I'm trying to focus, I'm trying to be better than who I was yesterday, but it's a struggle. The best parts of me have been sealed behind a wall for so long that they're strange to me now. I'm not sure when it started, I have some good ideas, but I don't know if that matters at this point. I just know the person that I want to be is somewhere in my heart, drowning alone, In a place that I haven't been to in so long, I can't remember how I got there in the first place.

Dissociated
It's easy to talk about love, But it's hard to say how much I love you, I can't put how I feel about you into just one word Because you are so much more than that to me, From the moment we first held hands, To the moment we first kissed, From the first time I said I love you, To right now as I pour out my heart, I have enjoyed every sweet moment That I've been lucky enough to share with you

A Little Love Letter
The one thing I look forward to most when I see you, is laying in your arms again, because nothing brings me comfort like that moment when my weary head falls on your soft chest, and all the world simply disappears, all my pain & problems, all my worries & fears, they just melt away until there is nothing left in me but you, your warmth, your scent, your kindness, your tranquility, your love and your heart, every time you kiss my head is like a drop of pure sunshine falling onto me seeping into my heart and in my soul, and then I know above all else, that in all the universe, nothing compares to the feeling of being in your arms.

In Your Arms
this is something I can honestly say, the reason I smile every day is because of you, and all the things for me that you do, you're the light of my life and the sun in my sky, the fire in my soul and the apple of my eye, my shining star and no matter where you are you will always be in my heart, I will always want you when we're apart, because every day since the start you have been my sun, In my sky you've been the only one opening my eyes and lighting the way, showing me the beauty in every day, warming my soul when it's lonely and cold, giving me back the love I once foolishly sold, with your beautiful smile and heart of gold, you make me strong and you make me bold, I only hope I can do the same for you, because you deserve all the love and happiness too, you never lead my heart astray, And though I didn't think there was a way, I still love you more with each passing day, that is something I can honestly say.

Something I can Honestly Say
A broken heart just means that you have all the pieces to make a new one

All The Pieces
When I see photos of the beach, my mind gets blocked and all that it sees is you and me laying on the shore, watching the sun set once more, looking into each others eyes again, feeling like it’ll never end.

Photos of the Beach
I can hear your voice saying my name, it feels good that you know it, it sounds nice coming from your lips, it looks sweet when you write it, please.. say it again, tell me you smile when you think of it, that you love saying it, and the vibrations you feel as each syllable rolls off your tongue sends tingles through your body, I hope you never forget it.

I Hope you Never Forget It
It was just a crush at first that I had on you, but we talked and shared and it grew and grew, I just wanted someone to smile at me through the pain of waiting for someone like you, but I never imagined that you'd like me too,    so darling,       what did we do? We hung out and talked for hours a day, could never run out of things to say, I got used to looking into your eyes, used to thinking of you when I look at the skies, wanting to kiss you and hold you and miss you, take you to places that we've never been too, if there's one thing in my life that I never thought of,    its that this is how one day       i'd fall in love, And it was so beautiful, at least for a time, I was yours and you were mine, so happy I would shout at the skies with pure joy streaming from my eyes, and everything just came together, but love wasn't enough to hold you forever,    then suddenly,       it was all over, And for a while it was so hard to stay sober, only numbness would take away the pain, every night trying not to go insane, wondering how I ****** up, where it all went wrong, was it ever even real all along, was it true when you said I love you as you gazed into my eyes,    how much was truth,       how much was lies, And now I miss you, I want to see your smile, I want to lay next to you again and hold you for a while, and feel your breath on my arm and smell your hair in my face, go back to that special place when we were happy and nothing was wrong,    i'd read a poem,       you'd play a song, But I have to realize that's all gone, you made your choice and I have to move on, I hope in time the tears fade away, and maybe again I can feel one day, the way I felt when I was with you, but i'll never forget what we went through, and baby no matter what I do, you're the only one I'll ever think of,    when I remember       my first love.

I wanted to watch you stand atop a mountain gazing into the distance, I wanted to hold you beside a burning fire, I wanted to kiss you on the beach and make love under the stars, But now I cant, and all I have left are these empty dreams I wanted to share with you, and all these things we wanted to do with no one else but just us two, dreams of us sharing a tent, a few years down the road after time has went, a fire crackles and the crickets sing, in your eyes the fire is glistening and everything is as it should be, away from the world just you and me, it could have been a memory, but now it’s just a fantasy, nowhere near a dream. nowhere near reality, I guess love ain’t what it seems

I guess Love ain't what it seems
This is where I want to end up, at the edge of the forest overlooking a lake, the sound of nature every time I wake, in the middle of nowhere with woods all around, somewhere to be lost, and nowhere to be found.
