The older poems are better, though maybe all poets think that.

Do not speak, love.
Hold your peace.
Keep your silence.
Listen.
Listen.
Listen.
Do you hear it –
The lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-dub?
Tell me.
Do you hear it?
I’ve been trying
To silence it,
Muffle it with poetry,
But it is there.
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
It won’t stop.
It won’t stop…
It won’t stop!
It’s right here.
Right here!
in my center,
at my core!
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
It won’t keep quiet!
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
It won’t be still!
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
Lub-dub, lub dub, lub-dub.
Be still, love,
Be still.
Be still!
Do not speak, love.
Hold your peace.
Keep your silence.
Listen.
Listen.
Listen.
Do you hear it –
The lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-dub?
Tell me.
Do you hear it?
Listen!
Why won't you hear?

Heart = Mind

I've never felt this,
It feels like true bliss.
My heart changes its beat,
dub-lub, lub-dub, dub-lub.
Every time you make a glance,
I grow cold, almost still in my stance.
That smile,
I bet you I could see it for a hundred miles.
I yearn for the warmth of your embrace.
dub-lub, lub-dub, dub-lub.
I've never wanted someone so desperately,
You make me feel like a kid.
Do you see what you did?
I wonder how it would be,
If you were here with me.
dub-lub, lub-dub, dub-lub.
I imagine us jamming to the station,
It's obvious which one is your favorite; the rock nation.
You with your hand on my leg,
I can feel my heart racing once again.
dub-lub, lub-dub, dub-lub.
Please forgive me,
But I think I'm falling head over heels.
Maybe because you make me feel at ease,
Maybe because the way you make me feel is natural like the summer breeze.

Alone in Death
Jielyn Cerlette Lopez
Nov 2015
empty..
nothing..
floating through space..
that's what i am feeling at this moment..
i am here, but i'm slowly slipping away..
losing my grasps to the world of reality..
i'm just another body..
another lifeless being..
just another vessel..
my heart is ticking inside me..
like a bomb waiting to explode..
ripping my chest open..
leaving me vulnerable and misshapen.
lub-dub lub-dub lub-dub
the never ending rhythm..
i so much want to cease 'em..
lub-dub lub-dub lub-dub
every beat of this muscled thing..
only pain to my body it brings..
lub-dub lub-dub lub-dub
suppressing my lungs
denying any air inside..
holding myself in..
pushing my needs aside..
lub-dub lub-dub lub-dub
my stomach is growling..
butterflies inside me,fluttering..
lub-dub lub-dub lub-dub
i will my heart to stop..
why won't this agony let me be..
just want to disappear,
i am a waste of space..
i'm worth nothing,
but a slap on the face..
i shouldn't be here,
i'm just a big disgrace
i should just be alone,
a misfit in any place..
i know, yes, i admit.
i am a selfish *****..
i deserve this things.
for the endless hurting inside,
for the ever stabbing in my heart..
i just have myself to keep..
no one else to think..
just me, alone, forever.
nothing's gonna be better..
'til death brings the dark
who will hold the knife
'"I DO"
