Vete como quien llega, pero vete,
pues ya el trigo creció para la siega.
Mi amor es como un niño que no juega
para que no se rompa su jugete.

Te irás coomo la lluvia, gota a a gota;
y yo al cantar mi canto hacia el olvido,
soy la rama que sólo ha florecido
para que no se vea que está rota.

Y mientras tú te vas sin un sollozo
yo cruzaré los brazos sin un ruego,
muriéndome de sed igual que un ciego
que se sentara en el brocal de un pozo.

O he de mirarte como el moribundo
que ve llegar la primavera al huerto,
y piensa que después que se haya muerto
no debiera haber flores en el mundo.

Pues como el monje ante su crucifijo,
que es su esperanza y a la vez su yugo,
yo sentiré la angustia de un verdugo
que debe ajusticiar su único hijo.

Vete... pero es mejor que ni en el eco
pueda sobrevivir tu voz ausente,
porque mi amor es triste como un puente
sobre la cicactríz de un río seco...

Y aunque sonría como quien engaña,
viéndote ir como quien se equivoca,
mi corazón será una araña loca
que se enreda en su propia telaraña.

Yo he de fingir un ademán de hastío
en una despedida indiferente,
pero mi amor será como un demente
que sepultará un ataúd vacío.

Y, ya lejos mi boca de tu boca,
mi alma despertará cada mañana
con su oscuro silencio de campana
que se puede tocar y no se toca.

Pues aunque digas un adíos risueño
yo sentiré que cierras una puerta,
como esa mano cruel que nos despierta
cuando soñamos lo mejor de un sueño.
"Do you not understand? Even I fear what I might become given half a chance. Stay too close to fire, and eventually you will burn."

"Then burn I shall. For I'd rather burn from the fire than risk never knowing the fire at all."

"Foolish creature."
some lines from my story I'm writing
what a gorgeous tragedy;
letting the lady death steal
the life i try to draw my breath from,
playing a melody on this flute and violin
that cuts deeper than the northern winds
that sink their icy teeth into my warm arm,
flowing with living blood,
yet tainted with black mildew that kills,
all while singing this ear-wrecking song -
waiting for no-one to hear,
or see these burning tears
while the pile of the forgotten ones
draws me forward, pulls me so close in,
God, i do not want to fade into
nonexistence
leaving no meaningful trail behind
except these long forgotten poems
that mark that i once tried
to fool the lady death,
to stay behind after i die.
this poem is also 2 years old; but it's like i wrote it yesterday, then buried her somewhere deep inside.
Fingers sinking deep
               below your surface;
               seeping into your *****,
               caressing your crevices.
               leaving their mark; baring pleasure.
               coursing ecstasy through your veins.
           searching for the highest of peeks beyond measure
               scorching heat, blood boiling, the pleasure pains
               soothing your aching flesh
               in relentless pursuit; of higher depths
               guilty yearnings, urges run rampant
               as your ecstasy starts to progress
               heavy breathing your hands held abreast
               pungent liquids; drenched with desire
               a seeping puddle stains the mattress
               gingerly leaking, outlining your canvas
                a mist in the air, cooling your skin;
Whatever will be, will be
I guess that's what they call certainty
A vague destiny
But where does that leave you and me?
A collective we
We'll have to wait and see
Due too love messing with thé
Predetermined story

It will never return
Every single day a wish sets sail
But nothing ever floats back
The constant churn of the tide
Is a clockwork peril
A nomadic timekeeper
Telling us over and over
And over again
The time has come
To look elsewhere
Inspired by Barbara R Maxwell's poem "The Ocean":
https://hellopoetry.com/poem/5062223/the-ocean/
She looks in her eyes,
Seeking the light that never dies,
Even when the shadows rise.

Her face still glows
Like the brightest star is the sky,
Even In the deepest lows,
Gentle as a doe.

Not just a impressionist
Or a perfectionist,
But also a professionist.

Wisdom is wrapped in her tenderness,
Strength disguised as her gentleness.
Full of fire, full of grace,
She walks her path at her own pace.

With contrast in personalities,
we got the similarities.
Cause our heart share the same tides,
And Without any hindrance she guides.

Sometimes a warrior, sometimes a swarm
Yet she always keeps me warm.
Because She is, and always will be,
My super duper mom.
This poem talks about mother’s affection. I hope you enjoy my first poem!!
