You put a spout on your love and you decisively let it drip,
I am a waterfall of never ending flow to quench thy lips.
You and I are not the same

a turn of phrase

I wait and wait
and wait and wait

"an apology you have to request is..."

he doesn't finish his sentence

I wait and wait
and wait and wait
its a lovely quiet
when he decides it is time for it
then he speaks with my mothers tongue
the blood is fresh, the wounds are young
again

Writing

Lev Rosario
To write a poem properly
That is my dream
But I can't even
Remove my mask
I don't even dare
To think quietly

All my poetry is failure
Spies that pretend
To be activists
A violent movement
A laceration
That bleeds black bile

Violence circle my mind
Like vultures around corpses
The sky is touched
By the redness of my cheeks
And I end up crying
Until night comes

What remains of my poems
Are dead organs
Words that fail at being words
Mouthful gibberish
What's left of my tears?
Acid rain

Don't think I was wrong
Leaving this place
The names are the same
Just a different face
I've changed
I've grown
A better life
I chased
But
Somewhere on my journey
I missed something in my haste

Look to the future
You can't change the past
Respect for each other
Let's build a world to last

As the little birds
Sing so softly in the
Tree there singing to me
In the beautiful pear tree
And every day there in my
Garden singing so softly to me.

From strangers
To lovers,
To Stranger's.

More Love
I am human
and I have lived, and breathed, and seen...
and fallen and stood,
and loved and lost.

And I seek.
And I seek.

And I breathe, and I look, and I live.

And I live.
And I love.
And I see.

The world told me to cry,
but i still smiled.
The world told me to die,
but I am still alive.
The world told me stay quiet,
but I still fight.
But sometimes the world is right,
that's why I lied.

he said
"I love you"

and maybe
I should've turned
and looked around

because
it's obvious now
that he wasn't
talking to me.
