Colombian I am 18 years old and I've liked to write for many years now. I believe I still need improvement in order to consider myself a writer.
At night wondering An unbreakable silence Yet there are screams, shouts No one around. Could they be my shouts? Not speaking Could they be my thoughts? Not thinking Could I be going crazy? Not insane Could it be animals? No one alive Could it be the moon? Not shining Then what? I try to listen Try to distinguish the voice Sounds like mine But not mine Its close Yet far I pay more attention They voice is familiar I listen again The voice is of a stranger It’s loud It’s unclear It’s weak As that of someone scaring Yet they’re scared to scare I try to ignore it It grows louder Louder Deafening I try to understand Hear a hidden message It’s softer Softer A whisper My heads spinning Now what?

Now What
Just one One gesture Where I’m swept off my feet Flying Flying so high I can touch the sky   Just one One event That lets me see inside you And who you truly are   Just one One second When you’re holding me so tight I can hear the beat Your heart makes when we’re close   Just one One instance In which your heart Speaks of true feelings   Just one One perfect moment Two souls meeting Becoming one Understanding   Just one One eternity Of perfect moments Me in your arms Your lips touching mine   Just one "One lovely trick designed By nature to stop words When speech becomes superfluous"   Just one One Kiss

Just One
Been so long No words, no in person. Just memory of what once was. Contemplation turns towards him Don’t want flashbacks Yet he is held in my thoughts People say The past should stay the past Try not to think about the moments But How can I just erase? Erase from mind? Erase from heart? Stuck there, no way of getting him out He doesn’t want to be, I don’t want him to be That’s just how things turned out.

Erase
Is it a new beginning? Or a continuing end? Inescapably facing fears. The unknown. The known. Blending together. A monster ready to attack. Alone. Be ready for the battle. An evidential continuance. The never ending cycle. No time to run. A path to the unseen and unexplored. Forever dark and dreary. Nothing comes alive. An implanted memory. Stuck in your brain. Fantasies continue to collide and conquer. Don't think. You'll lose.

Spin
I miss the ocean of your eyes The warmth of your hands in mine The sweet taste of your lips The radiating sunshine of your smile The silky trails of your skin The way your arms so perfectly sorround me The melodic sound of your heartbeat Lulling me into peaceful sleep Where have you gone? You seem to appear only in my dreams  I look up at the sky and wonder Are you seeing the same star? Are you thinking of me? Emotions run through I am longing for your presence The scent of your arrival Please return to me I miss you

Longing
This guy I know The one most important The one no longer there   Looks have been interchanged Words have been spoken   This guy I know The one who smiles so cheerfully The one whose eyes sparkle   Layers have been peeled off Secrets have been exchanged   This guy I know The one whose hugs give warmth The one whose touch electrifies   Feelings have surpassed Emotions have intensified   This guy I know The one who will lend a hand The one who will listen   Safeness always present Never turning backs   This guy I know The one who inspires change The one always there

This guy I know
The one I call my own, Yet it can never be. The one I love, Who loves me as well. Yet it can never be.   Paved walkways send us in different directions Yet we always seem to find common ground, Even if just for a second. Even from opposite ends of emotions.   Many obstacles have been surpassed, Yet not enough. Nobody knows, we're so out of this world Collisions driving us space bound.   The one who I want, Yet it can never be. Without you my body aches, I have zero strength.   Promise me if I cave in and break That I wont be making a mistake.   Take me with you. Without you, Everything falls apart.   Take me with you. Without you, Its not as much fun to pick up the pieces.   There must be somewhere We can just be. We will let these layers peel off. This is someone Who can see right through me, And I'll tell you now, I don't seem to have a problem with it.
