cry

Adelía Sep 2016

cry

sometimes i need to
cry, just like the rain that falls
on the metal roof.

fall

fall

please catch me,
when you see me
fall...
it is merely a matter of
time...

broken rose (haiku)

broken rose (haiku)

broken rose bleeding
the tears wept creates red stripes
on the white petals...

the war

Adelía Nov 2014

the war

long trenches
dark and cold
for as far
as the eye
can see

where used to be,
grandfather is now
merely a lifeless stone
quite old

for the fallen...

fields of fallen leaves lay
barren as this heart of mine
snow and the cold days
only make the distance

nightmare

Adelía Oct 2014

nightmare

the bully drew in closer now,
closer... with a single blow,
i was rendered unconscious!
bleeding...
dying...
i felt my pillow upon awaking,
it was wet with tears.
an awful nightmare.

pink rose (haiku)

Adelía Aug 2014

pink rose (haiku)

porcelain pink rose
blooms in spring with such perfume
then once more in fall
