internet
Cristina Apr 2017
sounds of voices
or music or noises,
words or video
all around me,
touching the screen
or pad or keyboard,
like a body
this web is part of my life,
we call it internet,
a great place where I express myself
with pictures, poems
and other stuff.

loving me, loving you (10w)
Cristina Feb 2015
I'm indebted sold to you,
again, no more, no less.

the woman and her pain
Cristina Feb 2015
she has a broken heart that can be seen
from a decent distance and
the shattered pieces can be heard
even if you don't want to listen.

missing him when he's around
is worse than missing him when he's far away.
how can I say to him some crazy things
when in some days he doesn't even acknowledge I exist.

I hear these words often enough
to simply understand
a true meaning of all that.

you must take your life
in your own hands  and gently carry on
because he just drop your heart on the ground
*and moved on.

routine
Cristina Feb 2019
reflections and dreams
part of our daily life routine
with the purpose of constantly updating
twenty-four - seven.
and not a pause is there to take
sleep, work, eat, love
and fall asleep.
Cristina Oct 2017
I'm thinking of letting you go
somewhere you can be
free of my torch
that burns your ego
when you're drunk .

I'm thinking of letting you go
in the middle of the night
with too much alcohol
where you can be alone.

I'm thinking of letting you go
because you left me awhile a go.
wrote this piece a while back. though, still hurts.

street conversation
Cristina Jan 2015
people on the street talk loud
and the eavesdropping sounded
exactly like that:
there are too many explanations
most of them overlooked by love,
but with time comes a feeling
that grows inside the mind
replaying in unexpected moments
there is definitely something selfishness
*in not showing affection.
443 · Apr 2014
take my hand
Cristina Apr 2014
take my hand and give me your power to do something
I'm tired to feel hopeless, I want to feel fearless
crying like a cascade, never stopped over a decade
it's going to be worse, so please stay close.

take my hand and promise me the moon
so we can both smile at impossible abduction in the sky
look at me and tell me that I count
or
it will be fine, love
therefore, hold my hand and don't let go.
443 · Mar 2015
happy for them
Cristina Mar 2015
I'm just after the corner
two bodies and four glasses away
I hear your voice and
I try to distinguish your words,
we've changed so much
so I can't understand what you're saying
then you pause and
your laugh fills my ears,
tiny pieces come together and
form a picture with you smiling
all from different places where
our memories are boxes full and closed,
and my heart jolts of joy.
I am happy for you.
434 · Feb 2014
it's about love
Cristina Feb 2014
I realized long ago that it's all about love.
Regardless of the direction of reflection
or the time to take a break in life,
love brings light in heart.

Without realizing
you wake yourself finding
that in your heart is stagnating,
for an indefinite period
a person you love unconditionally.

That is love.
431 · May 2018
the dream
Cristina May 2018
I'm waking up before the dawn
gazing at the gray ceiling with sleepy eyes
seeing something is not there
but sure was.
effortlessly, light as a feather
I'm drifting to the open window
waiting for the cold to get inside,
with bare feet there I stood
and stood
until I woke up with you
by my side.

eleven years
Cristina Nov 2017
it's been a decade
since the first steps you took
and the most important words
like 'mama' and 'papa'
were the first you said
with your baby voice
melting hearts
of everyone along the way.

it's been half decade
since you figured out
that the most important job
is making your parents proud.

eleven! oh magic number
with 132 months of full laughter,
I wish for you to have
many memories
filled with joyful moments
among your best friends
and your lovely family!

Happy birthday Jan!
sweet eleven years :)

say the truth
Cristina Oct 2018
you notice
that you're hurting me to the tears,
however,
I confess in a soft voice
that it was deeper than this.
421 · Mar 2019
some days
Cristina Mar 2019
Time and segments,
Dreams and wishes,
Words unspoken
And a quantity of pain
Is
Troubling the day.

the world to see
Cristina Feb 2014
The world doesn't have pieces to change
All we do are words to exchange.
We crave for emotions to have
And we don’t say thanks for what we get.

Maybe tomorrow is the end of the world
Or other day, can be the same.
The war won’t stop at the middle of the night
Children die at five seconds, or at least.

We cry for no connections
This is all *******.
We don’t crave for connections to touch
We waste our minds on games and tv shows.

We don’t care about dogs of the street
We **** them with the car ‘cuz we don’t have time to see.
To see what? A little girl asked me
I’ve got so confused.
This can not be!

It’s not about you,
It’s all about me,
I can’t be the change
*I want in the world to see.

a state of low mood
Cristina Feb 2015
Where no one would want to be
I am not alone.
Among others like me
sharing a deep secret
believing that no one can know,
but
they clearly see.

we recognize a pitched laugh,
a too small smile,
or doomed words like
how is she now?
and all the answers we can provide
we can verbalize only one:
we want a medicine for
our silent screams.
Cristina May 2016
Too much to care
Too much to do
Too much to endure
And who is there to listen?

Alone in nature
Cristina Oct 2017
you weren't there to see
the sun rising above the fence line,
I was becoming part of nature
as I stayed so still
and birds were under my spell.

trees were waving branches with laziness
and soon flowers copied the dance,
up on the sky
clouds were passing with devotion
in front of the morning sun
asking for permission
to let a few drops of rain
where the land is dry.

you weren't there to see
shadows of trees and petals of flowers
covering my sadness
crushing sad thoughts
rebirthing me with joy,
I was part of the nature
finally,
I was one of them.
399 · Jan 2014
my friend
Cristina Jan 2014
You don't judge, don't yell, don't speak mean
It makes me feel  humbly , and you stay by me.
I drop myself, deep in the mud
you worry sick, and I'm afraid
came back, be brave
it's all I hear
it comes from you
my friend... darling.

a story half told
Cristina Mar 2016
it's a story half told if I let out pain
and play with kind words
only to not relive
a bit of disappoint.

it's a story half told
every time words walk
and halt only to one ear,
what happens to them
is another story half told
for people who ask for more
and receive more then they can hold.
394 · Dec 2017
for this new year
Cristina Dec 2017
in the night between the years
a shy voice can be heard:
dear two thousand eighteen,
please be kind!.
392 · May 2018
I dreamed of him
Cristina May 2018
it's resembling to your screaming
and no one can perceive the sound,
it's a reminiscent of the time
you almost passed out
and no one was there
to offer you a hand.
placing your palm on the cold concrete
and trying to breathe,
deafness from outside noise
although, not from inside
escalating the pumping heart
bom bom
bom bom
bom bom

wake up, it was just a dream!
389 · Dec 2015
numbered poems
Cristina Dec 2015
write with your soul,
he will be healed in no time,
I've written over a hundred
darling,
poems, are never enough.
386 · Jan 2018
dear death
Cristina Jan 2018
escaping death! is this for real?
can he or she be so willing
to pause or forget a moment
or to make a trade with us
because, in any moment of the day
we are important
we are humans!
the only souls that matter for he or she,
which gazes us in the eyes and bones
and smiles or screams when obtaining our souls.
oh dear death, you play my life like an artist!
383 · Jan 2015
unable
Cristina Jan 2015
I feel  mostly hurt when I'm unable
to permanently give you the condition of resting.
I know that between yesterday and today*
you press Enter
*for tomorrow.
I could never ask for more anyway.
379 · Feb 2015
glue and love
Cristina Feb 2015
some say it's true some say is fake
love will cost, and the price to pay
a broken heart to be put in place
is to let the cracks stay on sight
and wait to eventually
be glued with love.
373 · Mar 2018
what she wrote
Cristina Mar 2018
blue words on white paper
that's what she wrote in secret
then placed them with care aside
near his black glasses
to surprise him or not,
that ended with:
your love.
373 · Mar 2015
moving on
Cristina Mar 2015
I've lost my words the moment you turned your back on me
and I can't replay to people's questions
other way than using signs.

I've lost my hearing at your first scream
using disappointed words like...
well, those I can not write.

I saw the sunset every morning since then
and I've tried to speak small words like:
beautiful and caring and I.

I saw a man today who touched my hands
and the intensity of one moment
made me wish I could see in his heart,
and also in his head.

I've heard a simple question coming from him
and I quickly answer it without thinking,
my voice was strong but still ****
and I've remember that that was the first time since
well,
I've remember to use words with voice
and I'll not be afraid to make myself notice anymore,
because like you
I can move on.
371 · Feb 2015
some dreams
Cristina Feb 2015
I fell asleep with your image in my thoughts
knowing that you'll never know how I felt.
the night was always short,
so the dreams have come and gone
about possible alternatives involving
kisses and no clothes.
I woke up before sunlight in many days
hoping that eventually you'll notice me
how I really am.
367 · Dec 2015
people and feelings
Cristina Dec 2015
punctured hearts all over earth
crawling on mountains
of happiness and joy,
sweaty foreheads and hands
and dusty feet
walking nor running
towards the deep -
deep sky
deep oceans
hearts
or thoughts
in front of nothing
or everything or all.
365 · Jan 2015
a dream place
Cristina Jan 2015
I looked in your heart and I fall in love with what I saw
I like it there, is warm, fluffy and not so crowded
like the hearts of other man I've been inside
for a small period of time.
something that we can aspire to
364 · Mar 2017
Above all
Cristina Mar 2017
You wander above green grass
Never touching earth's crust
When rain comes you put on the shield,
God forbidden to touch a man
To know the warmth of skin and blood
Or kiss a beating heart.
363 · Feb 2014
I tell you now:
Cristina Feb 2014
I think it's time to tell you something.
I know, I should have told you everyday.
I have no excuse,
but please.

please do not forget.
a day will come
when I will not tell you anymore
it will not be because I don't want to tell or feel.

my love,
I will be gone.

I tell you now:
I love you, today,
but please!
remember this every day.

for her baby
Cristina Jul 2017
hello my friend
with deep blue eyes!
today we meet
in the land of real dreams
that the grown ups
call it simple
Life!

A day will come
for every scene
for you to learn
names and things.
fear not, my friend
if tears will come
some of them
important are.
you shall not be scared
if monsters are real
because your dad
will banish them.
you shall not cry
if rain will come,
in your mother's arms
shelter you'll find.
do not hurry to grow old
nor pass the toys
in those long days
because my friend,
grown ups miss in secret
to play with toys.

I wish for you
...
oh! so many wishes
I'll tell you all
in our next meeting!
For Elena
5 months baby
355 · Jan 2014
move on
Cristina Jan 2014
I saw the words on your lips the day you left
It broke me strait on the left.
I don't want to remember but I do
You came for me
As I came for you,
I know the feeling
I love you too.

stop replaying stupid mind
I close the deal,
let's move it on.

A touch, a smile, a nasty thought
Covered it all from the start.
I'm stuck in love
So deep with you.
It's what I say
for me is true.

intimacy
Cristina May 2019
Distinguishing that I have this flame,
that has a blaze of shame
because of the appalling thoughts
that voyaged my fields of mind
regarding how appalling
will it be to have
your lips on mine
your shirt off and trousers as well
furthermore
I can't enlighten you on the remaining thoughts.
348 · Jan 2016
dedicated this year's
Cristina Jan 2016
a new year will come
let's hope for more
passion and compassion
kindness and sweet thoughts,
no more idle nor stubbornness,
just unsuspected powers
to uplift joys that create
a great
new
journey.
347 · Mar 2015
the option to leave
Cristina Mar 2015
occasionally I want to hide myself
somewhere safe from the entire word
so I can watch how is out there
without me,
if it's good or bad
if I'd be missed or not,
and if is ok
I want to leave and never come back.
344 · Nov 2014
awakening
Cristina Nov 2014
there are some fears that I go to sleep at night
and one is crossing now my mind,
one of these days
I will wake up.

to dream about
Cristina Apr 2015
if you were a dream
I'd like to never woke up
because only there
I can kiss you good night
and stay up all night.
339 · Sep 2014
buying with time
Cristina Sep 2014
we make a trade in life
in every second of our journey on earth
to buy the things we think we need
just to witness them slowly fade.
we are somehow forced to keep the trading action in control
for no other reason, but feeling sorrow on our own,
thereby,
we trade health with money
youth for old age
pain for tears
a fake smile for pride
a good candy for childhood memories
and the work we do now for what we might have someday.
337 · Dec 2017
cemetery
Cristina Dec 2017
I'm holding my head down
as passing near the cemetery
mirroring the motion
of those who I pass by.
there's no confusion
nor a deep illusion
of what we should do
with our life now.
337 · Dec 2014
must be a song about love
Cristina Dec 2014
there's something that I wanted to ask
about songs that slowly resonate in my field of heart
are you hear them too, or is just me?
however, I keep that for me.
the songs start easily and grow by time
when my lover comes towards me unannounced.
I'm still on the same frequency as he is,
in a world where speaking words like I love you
have real power, to move the space, to warm up a body
to create a need for more, considering even a life time together.
so, must be a song about love.
333 · Jan 2015
waiting
Cristina Jan 2015
do I cross your mind as much you cross mine?
are you thinking at a way to let the pride not stand in our way?
are you measuring the distance between our bodies
analyzing how to surprisingly touch my lips with yours?
or how your tongue can make a way into mine?
how long it will get for you to decide?
Cristina Dec 2015
I've sold my soul to you this month
thinking all the past will be forgot,
instead I've found myself with tears on cheeks
and you looking like a fool at me.
329 · Nov 2017
the moment
Cristina Nov 2017
you felt it, didn't you?
shall not claim nothing about it
as no one never will.
I felt it too
your mind touched mine
in that particular moment
we forged a point in time.

for the birthday boy
Cristina Oct 2017
surprise, surprise!
there's one birthday boy around!
so let's all gather
and sing at unison
'happy birthday, dear Louis!'

kind wishes that we have
flow straight from the heart,
here's what I have to say:
count on your loved ones
to fill your life with love and joy,
to count the best moments
and cheerful memories,
to sum them up
until next year!

Happy birthday Louis!
sweet nine years :)
327 · Jan 2015
are you?
Cristina Jan 2015
they watch every day that she's smiling less
they witness once a week that she's leaving first,
they wonder if she's ok or so
but no one has the nerve
to slow down the step
and ask
*are you okay?
