I'm in love.
In love with the pursuit of an impossible dream.
The thrill is in the chase.
I'm **in love.
Carlos Salinas Jan 2017
The way to a woman's heart...
a differential equation, a winding road,
slay the dragon, tear down walls.

The way to a woman's heart...
A never-ending pursuit,
thrill, excitement,
butterflies in the gut.

She dropped the handkerchief
as I chased after her
her call for many attentions
I must swiftly attend

She says yes,
she says no
she says stop,
she says go.

My friend Albert Einstein
and I sit at night
trying to ascertain
how to win this woman's heart.

And though it is uncertain
I won't be turning back
Pursuing you in earnest
addiction of my heart
Carlos Salinas Sep 2016
Everything is free.
Life, love, air, grace, a kiss, a smile, butterflies, autumn leaves,
Friends, hugs, summer breeze, full moon, a dog chasing its tail, soft rain,
The sound of her voice when she says: “I love you”.
Everything you ever wanted...everything is free.

This love won’t last forever
This love will fade away
I choose to love you dearly
I only have today.

Your kiss takes me to Heaven
I’ll plummet back to Earth
Today your lips are for me
And that is all I care.

Our roads are branching separate
We walk further afar
You won’t be here tomorrow
Our lives will drift apart.

Who knows what holds tomorrow
Or will this love survive
Today I’m only  grateful
To have you in my life.
Who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows?
Only time
And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose?
Only time - Enya
Carlos Salinas May 2016
While you were lying by my side
I only wanted to  hold you tight
So tight to keep you warm
On cold and breezy nights.

While you were crying by my side
I only wanted to wipe away the tears
Fill your heart with never-ending  kisses
From the bottom of my heart (to yours).

Poured all my love out to you
Yours and only yours
I figure that you want it
I figure that you don't.

While you locked eyes onto me
Our hearts stirring in
Butterflies in frenzy
'I love you' we declared.

My tilted eyes denounce me
There's nothing to be done
Nothing but surrender
to this impromptu love.
Cold breeze and end of summer bring two lost souls together
Carlos Salinas Apr 2016
What will happen when is over?
Are you ready to crash hard?
We have soared each day much higher
So much harder we will fall.

The sky’s so much blue in heaven
Grass is greener than before
I can see but endless rainbows
From the outpours of your love

Sky’s bound to fall up on us
Sending us to pits of hell
Love’s not meant to last for longer
And this romance will be quelled.
Love seems to leave more often than come; it seems to be absent more than be present. So fleeting, so fragile, so easily destroyed
Carlos Salinas Mar 2016
We were ever oh so close
There was nothing but just us
The whole world came to a stop
When you kissed me.

And I loved you so much
Like I hadn’t done before
Never wanted something more
Than this feeling.

At the peak of our love
Like a mirage when is gone
Like the mist amidst the fog
You diminished.

My heart was all alone
Left out freezing in the cold
It was none but tears and hurt
Since I lost you.

It was not for lack of love
Nor us willing to go on
We were from two different worlds
What a pity.

When I met you I thought
You’re the one I’ll always love
Till my heart comes to a stop
Now it’s broken.

What a tragedy of love
That we couldn’t stay aloft
We belonged to different worlds
Love is gritty.
Love is not enough sometimes. Borders, self-imposed morals, societal norms, etc can all break two away, break two apart
