If u love a person
It feels like diving in the Caribbean Sea on a big luxury ship with everything u need
But
If u lose the person
U don't only lose her
No.....no you also lose the ground under your feet
And before u can remark and observe
You find yourself underwater
You can't gasp for air
Your body feels numb
And everything is just a big wild mess
You can't even remember where up and down is

So
U might get yourself out of water
Your body still in the ocean but sad eyes looking for somebody
Somebody to help
And it's not gonna end there huh
Cause the waves keep crashing and crashing over you when you least expect it

But
U may also find yourself
Finally on land
Without expecting it

So no matter how hard life is
how many times u keep getting thrown off the boat
Just remember
That there will always be a land
So just keep on swimming
And remind yourself
that the more u swim
the better u become at it
This is aaaa very old one. I always loved the metaphor water..(u may find it in other poems of me too)

Dame
el lapiz
y el papel
dejame
y te recuerdo
lo tanto que te quiero.

(tu eres mi poesia)
literal translation:

give me
the pen and paper,
let me remind you,
how much I love you.

(you are my poetry)

he looked back
on their love

he could not
move forward

he lashed out
and inward
James Rives Jun 2019
poems are my escape
into worlds where sense
is measured in meter and rhyme,
and the undercurrent of meaning.
i make regrettable decisions
and excise those
that meant me well
in exchange for a pain
less familiar.
i would apologize,
but pride dictates
i stand my ground
and put pen to paper
instead.
Masha Yurkevich May 2019


I've learned to rise;
to get up when I fall.

Because it's every fail that makes it count,
and in the end it is all.


It might not really make sense, but I feel much better after writing this.
Still, I hope you enjoy.
we said we would have one last time
one last kiss
one last touching moment where we stared at each other
one last time where we lie bare
but it never happened
I never got to kiss you one last time
I never got to stare at you one last time
I never got to tell you I love you
at least not in person

I feel so alone without you
but we were not meant to be
and you weren't made for me  
and I was not made for you
you made my heart collapse
I have all these memories of you
we were a fairy tale
a dream come true
I love you
I love you
I love you
cómo me duele
mi amor  cómo me duele
cómo me duele is how it hurts
mi amor my love
