Sleeping angels
Leila Valencia Feb 2015
I believe you are in my head
my stories are wonderful

You love me and I you
but it is not the same

I wake to realness and  your presence startles me
I realize my fantasy is a fleeting step from reality

it is you I made to believe you loved me
it is you I made to believe you saw me
it is you I made to believe you dreamed of me

And I will believe but you will never see

Shrinking
Leila Valencia Feb 2017
And we sing, together. But, I feel
And I sing alone, I feel, still.
And I feel alone in a breathe....
And every song is the last.
Breathe.

Winter Bed, with you too
Leila Valencia Feb 2015
Take this whirl
For instance a dream to grey
The fog is down
Filming. Taken. Sounding.

A hang glitz can surround your mouth
Like wondering fireflies
A deep coldness fills your breathe
Shuddering. Listening. Dreaming

A sudden sight will take your laughter
Mesh it into flakes
Take it and swirl it into chills
Turning. ******. sighting

A flicker is bending your nose
and moments cant stay in black
many stay in grey
Winded. biting. Shivering

The wetted feet entice your senses
The overall chap is sensing your want
A love is better off in the winter
I swear to it

Lying. Writing.
Winter
Does anyone else dream of the heavenly wintery love? It does exist we just have to search. Its only a matter of time before you will find the perfect winter love.

Dreaming to far
Leila Valencia Feb 2015
Please oh please shake me
Like a bumble

More honks and more rings
More midnight whispers before I sleep

I need you to see me

Sweet
Leila Valencia Jun 2020
There’s something so beautiful in not knowing tomorrow.

Tomorrow could be everything great, or it could be ——- endless despair —————-

It could be death.

But tomorrow could be endless dreams manifesting into actuality.

And all is well.........

But you don’t know what will be. But don’t worry - why worry - you don’t have that much control.

Just laugh when you can.
Cry if needed
And treat yourself with the upmost love.
Take life easily.

New
Sleepy spot
I swept these
thoughts

Out, I hear, out I feel near
Newest birth of a babe

How the joy of creation is alive
before my weeping eyes
beauty in a new born

Fine
Leila Valencia Apr 2019
There is so much more to life than a glance
Yet
We feel small

Days
Disgusted, peeved, put off to no end

Days
life truly captures our heart
In a space of excruciating exhaustion
of, hopelessness

And then the world blinks its eyes open to hold us
Remind us, tend to us, guide us
And believe in us

Intuition arrive with a screaming
halt!

Whisper softly
caress our most intimate
heart
with assurance

unfolding
carefully
pleasing,

everything will be fine

Cracking
Leila Valencia Apr 2016
The lens captured my heart
But I couldn't catch myself - before to late
Clicking and clacking.... Crumbling and crushing I create
A morphed haze of delusions keeping me steady
I clack along.....
Missing out on beautiful moments in life.

Dream
Leila Valencia Apr 2019
I was thinking
A thought

That turned into flashes
of grandeur, greatly mundane, yet profound storytelling
of the conscious mind's eye

Yet, I fall into the trap of tracing and chasing
the dream ...

I fall into the trance of
tracing back, a transient feel
yet, feeling so out of place

Placed - here, and here I hear it
A thought, that became a stream of opening
That fluidness of it's true nature
of becoming a story - that never happened

- Yet, feels like reality -

I wake up
And think about my memories of my day to day experience
I see them like I see my dreams
I can NOT distinguish between one or the other (in past tense)

Yet, there is something so real
Yet, fake about a memory
Because a dream is rememebered the same way as a memory

That is the fine line, I constnalty walk upon
Dream/Reality remeberence

Crunch
Leila Valencia Feb 2015
Like speakisies
And wedding trees
Take me somewhere
Someplace hidden along your chest

Chimney puffs go round and round
Building signals ride along rigs
And pull at eachothers necks

Dim lit windows and wonder
Bleeding birds won't carry you tonight

Hynotize your lips I'm bringing company to settle this explosion

I'm dreaming up an eight wonder
It respects what you are
And needs to hear your noise

I can dream of a place you would call me for you

Gradual
Leila Valencia Jun 2016
Gales of gorgeous - magenta
Magnetic, momentous as thy flight my soul goes on...

Along with all
Paper planes pupils
Upon, upon, going away - whoosh!
The mountain tops peeping grey
Ineluctably transcend, dreams

Wings made of star dust
Whimpering the fly once more
I shake in immediate readiness
Yet my paper wings fall flat

Will the wings break once more
Before I touch reliefs shore?

Build Mountains
Leila Valencia May 2017
Has the wind knocked my feet down...
Scuffed at the ends - worn out - beaten old shoes, the soles can no longer sustain.

And the sun beats on my cheek, the climb, infested with gravel - smothered in dirt

A shout from above says looking down is only your perspective, a fools trick to our mind.

A shout in exclamation marks.

Running away from the echo of the past.
Sweat dripping, in splatters like drops - each drop a thought

Floating in space and time - your frustration wound up in a second.
Where does it drop?

A climb, claw - tear..... running into the mountain.
To fight against the battle
That stays quietly, patiently above you.

Realm of the night
Leila Valencia Feb 2015
Impossible to wonder, fathom
Intriguing to write to
I wonder of her

White V neck. Silver necklace. Blue Jeans. Leather Jacket.

Blue eyes to see
beneath the belief
It's complete


A blasted window that shoots
The curtains flutter
Breathing a shot, the scale is bent
and your idea of wondering about her
Is reversed

A hall of chandeliers fill her ideas
A chord strung to length for sensibility
Out of place
It doesn't touch me it wonders me

Charming and sensitive, catches me off guard
A magnetism that effortlessly will mend in you
A simple caress a thought to cherish
It doesn't matter any where but here
together

Midnight Sweat. A touch. A smile

A lengthy smile of strung words
Like breathing into ocean air
A subtle belt that strung my eyes to lanes I never knew

Knew small and still wonder
Cross roads of our lives will merge forever
My dearest friend that I love with passion. I will never completely understand. Always is witty, smart, and beautiful. So kind she melts like ice, but so different you know her. Everything with her stands alone, but it shines alone. I'm so attracted to her uniqueness and passion to learning new things and she is always open minded. I'm in love with the idea of starting a new cupcake business together called "righteous Confections" which is the silliest and greatest dream. She is always moving forward and learning from her mistakes. I'm impressed by her everyday and many times I look to her. Standing by her is like a whirl of plenty and I can buzz to new wave lengths of myself. No one else makes me so angry and wonderful. There is no one I can be myself with in so many doses. She has become somebody everyone should strive for. A beauty to many and a diamond of charismatic charm. I'm proud of her every second. I will always believe in her. 
Our roads were destiny because everything about this relationship is beyond her and myself. We were put in to each others lives for a reason. A reason I love living for <3

Bedded flowers
Leila Valencia Apr 2016
This is a place where I divide
What I feel and what I see
Convincing, I hide in a flowery castel built by the higher mind
I write and read and hold each word closely
I hold tightly , I speak gently
This is the safe haven of poetic minds
Small little loving piece to express my gratefulness to have a poetic forum.

Locked in Time, Wishing
Leila Valencia Feb 2017
Stuck in time
Wailing
Pinching, wishing, and waiting
Wishing there was another way, but it seems like time is stuck in between your hands

And there is no trick to move forward
And as backward as I feel
Small
Crushed
And confused

I still think of your in fondness

Farm Tale
Leila Valencia Jul 2016
Sweet innocence painted on the hills forehead
As free as the quiet night as loud as the thunderous gods,

The waking days, eternal romantic essentials

Angelic wings touched the lush below, the celestial being calming it's calf - the suckling weaned, hushed under moonlight starlets

The entry to the lush of simple being, the center of nostalgia, hidden with trinkets of history
It's story is a tale creating the homely care, shushing the fears of the frightened children. The green mountain hills sing the lullabies of lulling sleep.

So sound asleep, the whole night whispers...
Good graces, to doze off into eternal silence
Summers ago I went to a farm in Canada. I fell in love with the farm and I always think back to those moments as some of the fondest and wholesome memories. Im hoping in this poem my memory captures the time spend at the farm in its very essence.

Am I But One
Leila Valencia Jul 2017
The moving of feet
Shaking, bustling, the chaos of the clunking calamity that passes through

And I feel my senses, the airs, the ground, the peace, the joy, in my senses.
And the tip of my toes, the top of my head - that is all I am,
I am only now, I am only this, I am only one.


But once, I realized what I looked at changed with a different pair of eyes - I felt like, I was all that is

And will ever be.

Outside
Leila Valencia Jun 2016
Watching your arms limp
Limp you say, watching a man being torn to shreds
Bits of asphalt edge in my skin

Looking within from out of the bounds
Looking within, looking..
The man steps down, shameful - walks dutifully away

The sneering dog-vicious teeth before him was a trick to the eye
That poor man
Didn't see
The dog was just like you and me

But only the wise heart had time to see the truth, it is him not you - dear old friend

Meadows

A meadow turning to ashes, thoughts rationalize
Or thoughts sympathize

Eyes intertwine

Sealed
Leila Valencia Jun 2015
I would shield his mouth with a breathe
Its sealed with a touch and a laugh in the sky's breathe
As the stars swirl in a black hole beneath my arms

As the hair above me raises and my eyes swerve towards the tunnel....
Collapse to run and fall then run away from you.
I collapse into you.

I cant shake your sparks as there are fire flies guided my to the brick wall
I standstill as the red light breaks into a sizzle above me and my cheeks blend  into your sweater

I would shrivel  at you so I believe I cant swerve to you
I should spin around you until you catch my faint
I see the shock and question

The dark kisses
Dark kisses tonight into a ghost to smile at our rush to time
and the clear man tips his hat to flip a coin into the emptied hat
And as he picks me up

I fall into the night of a magic once upon a time
Never again sparks.
I have no idea

my dreams, do not dream
but my eyes seem
like a senseless pull is underneath them
i feel unwashed, unclean, but you said, 'dont worry my dear'

i listened my god
you listened by god
then you listened to intently

you tied my arms back and lured me in
this hole i dig, but only for you
my eyes can see you are my only reality
someone who has schzophrenia and can not distinguish reality

Hour glass
Leila Valencia Jan 2016
Thy past is your dream
your dream has not seen the night
Your dream will not draw its teeth
Your dream is a flash
And I will not pass by and let you ruin yourself.

What has become of this
Madness. Insane Rethinking. Dreaming
What you can not see is what you shouldn't
And what you do is your dreams desires.

Take one
I'm shuttering

Take two
It is really cold outside

Take three
This is to much to take

Take four
**** it

Take five
What if I'm making a mistake

Take six
At least I won't get a tattoo

Take seven
At tattoo parlor

Take eight
Thinks When can I kiss you


Take nine
I'm afraid

Take ten
I don't want to be touched

Take eleven
Holds own hand

Take eleven 1/2
Runs away

Take eleven 3/4
Sits alone, contemplates

Take eleven 5/6
Falls on mattress

Take twelve
holds up mirror

Take thirteen..... blows out candles

My body does not speak on its own

Written in memories and talked about in my mind
there is nothing worse than living with regret
At least you can learn from your mistakes.
