A big part of me left with you
and your beautiful smile
that complemented mine
those bright eyes that gave
me light in my darkest nights.

A big part of me left with you
today looking at our pictures
it took me back, to those days
when we had big dreams
for our magical love..

A big part of me left with you
that I will never get back
now they became memories that will live here in my heart.

A big part of me left with you
I pray to God,
to keep you safe
and to help you find what my heart and soul
couldn't give
you will always live here
inside my broken heart.
Gary Zambrano Dec 2019
I dreamt of you
In my darkest nights
when I felt hopeless and
didn't want to wake up
you extended your hand
you illuminated the way
with the light of your eyes
you took me out of my prison
with a broken heart, not
knowing if there was hope
you didn't give up, and kept
showing up in my dreams
night after night,
some called me crazy
others just laughed, but
today the sun is so bright
I look next to me and here
YOU ARE, the same beautiful smile
the same light in your eyes
which helped me scape
those dark nights
today you are here healing my heart
telling me that there is not walls
that a dream of love
could not break apart
Gary Zambrano Apr 2023
After all was said
and done
they forgot about me
they forgot about my pain
my tears, my
broken dreams
my broken heart, my hurt

was it my strong exterior?, or
maybe they just
didn't care
they left me on the floor
bleeding, ready to end
my days

they forgot that I am a warrior
I healed my wound
and pain
little by little
I stood up and  
started to walk again

I learned to love me and
put myself first, is funny
how surprised they look
they know my
time is here
Gary Zambrano Nov 2021
If you could only see
what I see, when
I look at you
you will fall in love
with me, the way
I felt for you

If you could only feel
what I feel when
you are next to me
you would realized
how fast you make
my heart beat

maybe, I should
wake up from this  
beautiful dream
and accept my life
without you
but is so hard, so
I pretend and
I live between a lie
and a dream

some call me crazy
but they do not
understand this is
my way to heal from
my shattered dreams
and my broken heart
Gary Zambrano Nov 2021
All I wanted was for
you to be happy
all I saw, were your tears
and heart break

All I want it was to
give you a lovely home
all I saw, was sadness
and your wishes to run

all I want it was to
erase your pain
all I saw, was how
miserable you were

now after all
was said and done
I feel sad, hurt, broken
because, I gave you
my best but, my best
was never enough...
Gary Zambrano Oct 2019
A part of me left with you
a part of me that time
never brought back
part of my smile, part of my dreams
a part that I can't explain, but
I feel the emptiness inside
the part flowers lack before they die
the part that makes the moon shine
a part of me that I don't know
how to get back
I hope you are happy and full of life
I hope your dreams materialized
I wish the part of me
that left with you
will live forever in your heart
Gary Zambrano May 2018
I am broken, I can feel it in my heart
it doesn't beat the same way, it used to
I am broken, I can see it in my eyes
the fire is gone and all my strength
to keep fighting  it's not there anymore  
I am broken, all my dreams and hopes
are not the same they used to be
I am broken, I can't seem to find
my way out of this mess
I feel bad, I feel pain
I do many things
I tried so many ways
I am not able to scape
I am broken, but I don't wish you bad
I don't wish you pain
I wish you happiness
I wish you love, I wish you could
get everything
I couldn't give you
I am broken, because
life didn't turn out the way I though
but it's okay, I'll fight back
please just leave me here
looking at the stars healing my pain
I am broken, just remember
this is not the end, far from it
this is just the beginning of
my new sunrise
this is the beginning of the new me
the man you are going to wish
you could have, the man who will never look back...
Gary Zambrano Oct 2020
I remember waking up
with your eyes looking at me
and your smile filling up my day
with love and hope

I remember before leaving
you giving me a hug and a kiss
I remember coming back
you running into my arms
wao, how much I miss
what now is gone

You wrote the most beautiful
chapter of love, in my heart
and forever will be there
to remind me how deep and
strong can a person feel love

thank you, for the part
you played in my life,
today I let you go and I move on
you will live forever as my most beautiful chapter of love
Gary Zambrano Feb 2019
Another February 14th
another day that you are not here
I just remember the last
Valentine's Day
when you were with me
full of smiles
and dreams when we
had all these goals
to accomplish, how foolish of me
I was in love
I know is February 14th again
I wish I could take all the kisses,
the hugs, the nights when
we made love
give them back to you
I wish, I could take
the part of my heart
that loved you
tear it up and give it
back to you
another February 14th
Cupid looks at me
he's pointing his arrow
to my heart and says
it's time to do it again
I really don't want to
at least not just yet
I know I will love
and trust again
I know I will make
another woman smile
feel happy and full of love
just not today
Gary Zambrano May 2018
Why did you have to smile to me
why did you have to look at my eyes
if you knew you were the
forbidden fruit
because you have a life with
another man
why did you take my hand and
ask me to dance
why did you stay with me those nights
if you knew we could not be together
I know that you are sorry
for loosing me
you feel the emptiness of not
having me
it's funny the way it works, I made you feel beautiful
I made you smile, my presence was too strong
now my absence is crushing
your heart
you miss my touch, my words,
my kisses, my love
well, is time to choose and remember
I won't wait for long....
Gary Zambrano Aug 18
Today I woke up
to a cloudy and dark sky
I went to my garden
something was wrong
the beautiful flower's
petals were closed
her fragrance and color
also gone, my heart hurts.

She was love and light
to many now,
God has called her
to a higher mission in
Heaven to beautify
the gardens there.

I pulled the rose
from the ground
and put it in a resting place
her soul can now
fly to Heaven
and make God's garden as
beautiful and  lovely as
she made our garden here.....

All I wanted was
to make you smile
but instead all I saw
were tears in your eyes

All I wanted was
to create your paradise
but instead, you made me feel like I destroyed
the green
and all your flowers die

All I wanted was
to combine your dreams
and mine in one dream
but, instead you woke up
like you couldn't breathe
or live in one dream

All I wanted was
for you to have what
you always wanted to have
today I know it wasn't me
my smile, my paradise,
my dreams, that were wrong
but, that you were not in love
so you couldn't feel
the beauty in my heart
good bye my love, good bye...
Gary Zambrano May 2021
Its been so many years
since you gone, but i still feel the same, I haven't been able to get over it, and time doesn't heal as they said, today another
Mother's day with out you
my memories brings me pain
I try to push them down but,
avoiding them hurts me more
I am trap in between, this feelings of love and hurt for missing you and wanting you here, to hear your voice once
again, touch your face, see your smile, heal my pain
you are in a better place
they say, looking down
smiling, I just want to say
Happy Mother's Day!,
I always keep you
in my heart
until we meet again....
Gary Zambrano May 2021
Here I am again
in this place that
I don't recognize
in this quiet room
with an empty bed

Here I am again
seeing my dreams
all so far away
like someone
took them
and run with them

I try to make sense
of all of this,
but my mirror
laughs back at me,
I guess it doesn't
know how much
all of this hurts,
but is OK

I rebound from worst
some left me for dead,
but the fighter in me
won't give up
because he knows, that my
kingdom is not far from here
Gary Zambrano Jun 2018
I  have experienced pain and loneliness
I  have felt the worst feeling
inside of me
I have fell to the ground and
I hit rock bottom, but
I survived, I dusted myself off
I stood up
I started walking, I didn't know
where to go
I didn't know what to do , I just
kept walking
as bad as I felt as much pain as
I had inside of me
I just kept walking looking for
that thing
which will bring me back, and
help me become what I want to be  
I asked myself many times
Why to be happy we have to go through so much pain?
my answer was, is because
we don't know what happiness is
I know I didn't give up, I know
I kept on fighting
I know I stood up and with all
this pain inside of me and
everything that was wrong,
I saw myself winning everytime
I planted my victory on my mind
I told myself, I will be what
I'm supposed to be
I will reach my goals, my God given destiny will not fade away
I won't allow it, I am here to stay.....
Gary Zambrano Apr 2018
I am stuck in yesterday
when your beautiful eyes
were my sunshine,
when your sweet smile woke me up
I'm stuck in yesterday, with this feeling that I have
inside my heart and doesn't
want to stop
I am stuck looking at our star
in the sky
her light is fading away
as the days go by
I am stuck with all these
feelings inside me
I don't know how to forget you
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to continue
I have lost many things
also my biggest dream
I want you to leave me alone
I want you to go away, but
you won't go
your face is still here stuck
on my mind
I want my life back
everything you took
I want to find the person that I was
before you came to my life
I am tired of this feeling that hurts inside my heart
please help me to forget yesterday
help me to erase you from my mind
or take my heart out of my chest
and make this pain stop...
Gary Zambrano Nov 2018
Sometimes I ask myself
why did I love you the way I did
why did I care so much for you
why did I wanted to show
you the sunrise, the sunset
the moon we loved so much
is that what love is?
well I don't know
you are not here with me, so maybe
I don't understand what love is
or you don't know how love feels
so you ran away from all this
to avoid getting hurt, but you
forgot how deep you hurt me...
Gary Zambrano Oct 2018
I do not fear loneliness
I do not fear silence
they were here before
and I did not fear them
You can not hurt my heart
He has lived in pieces
all this time
You can not take my hopes or
leave with my dreams
because, they have
left already
now you know,
it does not matter
how much do you
want to hurt me
yesterday I suffered
much more
but, it couldn't brake me....
Gary Zambrano Aug 2021
I dreamt of your bright eyes
your radiant smile
your long and soft hair
your beautiful face

I dreamt of holding you
hugging you, kissing you
making love to you
it was so magical

I dreamt of singing with you
dancing with you
writing a poem for you
looking at the sunset

I dreamt of the magical day
the beautiful white dress
the white picked fence
the kids running in the yard

I dreamt of forever with you
growing old together still
in love, like the first day
what a beautiful dream

what I didn't dream was
you leaving, walking away
breaking my world in pieces
causing me so much pain

maybe I was so naive
that my dream was all
I want it to see, the truth
what I didn't realize was that
your dream wasn't with me
Gary Zambrano Mar 2018
I dreamt of you
and your beautiful eyes
I touched your face and
made you smile, like the old days
we were in a beautiful place
where the grass was green
and the sun really shines
we talked about yesterday
and the love we once had
even though our time together
was a flash, I keep you here
inside my heart, where I keep
our most beautiful memories
so that I can dream of you one more time...
Gary Zambrano Dec 2018
If you leave tomorrow
leave me your eyes
so that, I can find my way
in the darkness
of the days that are waiting for me
if you leave tomorrow
leave me your smile
that way I can cover
the sad side of mine
if you leave tomorrow
leave me your touch
that way I won't feel
loneliness at night
I will feel that you are
still here with me
if you leave tomorrow
leave me your strength
that way this pain won't feel
as bad as it feels
if you leave tomorrow
just remind me how can
I continue without you
what am I supposed to do
how do I tell my heart
to stop asking for you
If you leave tomorrow
please close the door
to make sure you are
not coming back
take all the memories from
the things we did
if you leave tomorrow
there will be not more pages
to our poetry book
our story ends here
if you leave tomorrow
I wish you the best
don't look back
just forget about yesterday
I will do the same, even if I have to
take my heart out of my chest...
Gary Zambrano May 2018
I miss my sunny days
I miss watching the waves
in the ocean
I miss the nights under the stars looking at the moon
I miss everything that I thought
it was mine
I miss the way I used to feel
I don't know
if that type of feeling will ever
come back
I just know that I miss those days
when I used to smile from inside
my heart
I miss the roses, the garden,
the sunshine
I miss all the things that I carry
on my mind
I know my heart is broken
because of this
feeling inside but, I will live,
I will survive
I will fight to the end no matter what
I won't give up, there is a lot of
love and beauty
inside my heart, I will accomplish
my dreams
I am sure one day not too far
this will be just be a memory
of the darkest days and nights
I had to overcome
to get to where you are with
your hands open
ready to heal my heart......
Gary Zambrano May 2020
I miss you

On those terrifying nights
when I can't sleep or when
I have those crazy dreams
Just to wake up and realize
that my bed is empty
you are not longer here with me

I miss you

when the wake of the new day
approches and the birds start singing
their most beuitiful melody
there is an empty space on my bed
where once your beautiful
smile used to be
the birds continue singing
they don't know
their beauitiful melody
fills my heart
with moments and memories
that now deeply hurt

I miss you

is not the same here
everything looks different
everything looks out of place
I hope you are ok
I don't know what to do
I feel trap in yesterday
I never imagined that love
could cause so much pain
Gary Zambrano Aug 2021
I never thought
I could feel what
I felt for you
I could not describe it
with words,
some called it Love

I never thought
you could cause me
so much pain and hurt
the way you did

I never thought
I could find so much
happiness, thru your smile
so contagious, so alive

I never thought
that one day
your fake smile
will erase the happiness
from my face and heart

I never thought
a woman could change
my world in such a way
we created a paradise

I never thought
that you could destroy
my world, the way you did
there is nothing left

I never thought
that in my
search for love
I will also find
so much hurt
you made me
believe in love
then, you broke
my heart
in pieces, and
walked away
Gary Zambrano Aug 2021
I see u from afar
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
different emotions, I feel
running thru my body
I can't move
I can only watch

I imagine me, next to you
looking at your eyes
touching your hair
slowly running my
fingers thru your face
it feels so real
at least for me

suddenly, she touches me
and whisper in my ear
love you baby
and I wake up, yes
it was a dream once again

I don't know
how to stop them
I can't tell her
that every night
you come back to me and
fill my dreams with
emotions that only you
can make me feel

It is sad and painful for me
what did you do to my soul
why does it bring you back
every night in my dreams
how do I turn it off?
how do I get rid of it?
Gary Zambrano Mar 2018
It was in my darkest nights
when you came to my life
when I saw your eyes
like two beautiful stars
it was in my cloudiest days
when you smile shined
radiant and bright like the sun
from up above the blue sky
it was your heart that beated
next to mine
to show me how to breathe
when you thought I forgot
those were your tears and mine
for our dream that felt apart
of course we will love again but, you will never erase me from your heart..
Gary Zambrano Aug 2022
It was you, the one
who won my heart
the minute
I kissed your lips
and we couldn't
break apart
I took you
home with me
married you and
we started
our new life,
full of love
full of dreams and
endless nights

It was you, the one
with the white
picked fence
we built the home
we never had
that was life,
it felt amazing
for the first time
I felt loved
many years went by
full of love
then one dark day
life took
its shot and
our love cracked
everything was destroyed
what a painful time...

It was you, the one
one morning you left
you found
someone else
and destroyed
what we had
you broke my  
heart in pieces
I never thought you
could hurt me
this bad
that day I lost the
most beautiful dream
I ever had

It was you, the one
years went by,
we met again
What happened?,
Why are you crying?
life didn't go as planned
you are heartbroken
and sad 
I haven't found
real love
I haven't felt what
I felt for you
is weird how life works, but
here we are,
you and me
only God knows
the answer
was it you, the one?
Gary Zambrano Aug 2020
I Love you with all my heart
despite my hurt and scars
you are my healer and
the best part of my life

I want you to know
if you ever feel like
I'm drifting away
just look at me and
bring me back
give me a big hug
hold me tight
tell me that you love me
you have this beautiful power
that can turn bad days
into magical nights

I want you to know
that even when I am distant
you are always in my heart
there will be no disagreements
that can break us apart
I have been through so many
dark places and lonely nights
your eyes were my way out
because of you 
 I'm a better man
thank you, for all that you are
Gary Zambrano Oct 2018
I was wrong, when I  looked at you
for the first time and smile at you
taking you out of that
world of resentment
bringing you to my world
I was wrong
when I kissed you, when
I made love to you
I was wrong, in letting you
get into my world
I was wrong about having
dreams that included you
I was wrong telling you all my
secrets and all the things
I wanted to do, I was wrong letting you get inside my heart
letting this feeling grow as it did
I was wrong, now I know
but my heart doesn't want to understand...
Gary Zambrano Sep 2021
I wish I could stop
this feeling inside me
that brings you back
at night before falling asleep

I wish I could stop
this feeling inside me
that reminds me every
morning that you left
and took a part of me

I wish I could stop
this feeling inside me
that doesn't let me enjoy
the sun, moon or beach
because it brings memories
of how beautiful
it used to be

I wish I could stop
this feeling inside me
that keeps on reminding me
that I lost, by not letting
you win, at the end
we both lost
now this love story
is over
between you and me....
Gary Zambrano May 2021
I wish you
were here
so, you could
see how
beautiful is
this place
the sun light
can touch
the ends of
your soul

I wish you
were here
the sky is filled
with the
brightest of stars,
is like
if they want
the moon
to shine its
brightest night

I wish you
were here
the ocean is
so clear
you can see
the fish
happy swimming
away
leaving heart
shape
bubbles of air..

I wish you
were here
so, we could
experience
this magic
together but,
the universe
is telling us
is not our
time or place
Gary Zambrano Mar 2019
Just another day thinking of you
wishing you were here with me
in my mind I have you next to me
we are talking and laughing
then I wake up
my bed is empty, I feel sad
I don't know
how to bring you here with me
I wish your arms
were wrap around my body
I wish I could hug you
kiss you, I keep imagining you
you're beautiful
you're passionate and ****
you want to do so many things
but when I open my eyes
you are not here with me
where are you?, only you know
but if you can hear me
please come here with me
I'm looking for you
I'm waiting for you
I don't know if you will read this
or if anyone will tell you
about it, but if you do, know
I will be standing here
waiting for you
with my heart in my hands
so that you can make it whole
and bring him back to life......
Gary Zambrano Jun 2018
let me kiss you, while the rain
falls in your hair
drips down your face and
touches your lips
so, that everytime it rains
you think of me
let me kiss you, when you are crying and your tears
are going down your cheeks
let me kiss them
let me erase the pain and let me
make you feel Happy
so, that every time life brings you
to a dark place
you think of me as the person
who will always
be there for you and will always
help you get through
let me kiss you, at night before
going to sleep
that way when you are dreaming
you dream of me
let me kiss you, in the morning
before you wake up
my kiss will be the first thing you see when you open your eyes
that way you will see the world that
I have inside me
let me kiss your beautiful lips that way I can bring you
to our beautiful place where
you are my queen
that place where nobody else lives, please
let me kiss you, to be sure
this is not just a dream
Mom
Gary Zambrano Aug 2021
Mom
It has been ten years
since you gone, time flies
my pain is still the same
my heart is still broken

I miss you like the first day
when you left to be with God
I don't know
what was his rush
I couldn't say good bye,
when I arrived,
you were gone

Time doesn't heal pain
what a lie,
it just push it down
until is time
to resurface again

I been here so many times
with tears all over my face
thinking, dreaming
about what
could it been if
you were here

I know life doesn't go back
doesn't matter how much
you want it, doesn't matter
how much it hurts,
it moves on
and far from yesterday

All I wanted was for you
to be happy, and to heal
your pain, I really hope  
I helped in some way
you did so much for me
I will never forget
Gary Zambrano Dec 2021
My mind is stuck
between what it was
what it is, and what
I want it to be

My heart is stuck
between the love
that left, the love
that is here, and the
love that he wants

My days go by
thinking about
the love that is not here
smiling to the one that
is here, dreaming
about the one that will
never come back

This daily conflict
between my
mind, my heart,
my reality is eating my
soul away, and I don't
know how to stop it

I don't know how to
live this life of loving
who is not here
holding hands with
who is here, but 
       wishing everything             was like yesterday...
Gary Zambrano Mar 2018
My Wish...

I wish you were here with me
telling me all the things we should do
sharing about your day and             your dreams
I wish I could see your eyes
looking at me
making me a prisoner of that beautiful
paradise that inside of them, I see
I wish I could hear your voice
calling my name whispering,
I love you!
right before going to sleep or all
the things you used to say to me
I wish I could touch your hair
play with it like the many times I did
I wish I could wake up and this
was just a bad dream, that way
this feeling inside my heart will
stop and I can continue to breathe....

She will come, I will
look at her eyes
I will touch her face
I will play with her hair
I will make her smile
She will look at me
She will smile back
She will take my hand
put it on her waist, then
We will get lost on this feeling
She will come,
because it's our
destiny to meet,
We have been
looking for each other,
I live inside her heart
She lives inside mine
She will come, before
this love song is over
She will be here wearing her
beautiful dress,
She will look at me
We will dance with our souls
She will come, to cure this
broken heart, She will put
the pieces together,
She will bring
me back to life....
Gary Zambrano Feb 2021
Yesterday someone
asked me for you
at first I didn't know
what to say, but then
beautiful memories
came back to my mind
memories of you and me
from our amazing time

I remembered you and me
dancing in the rain, letting
the drops of water touch
our souls and heart
to the bit of the most
romantic song
that we wish it never stopped
but, it did and
we drifted apart

our romance was short lived
but intense at the same time
who would it though,
life had other plans
for you and me
that we couldn't
change or stop

I wish you are happy
and I hope
he makes you smile, and treats you well, you deserve much more than what
I offered you in
our short lived romance.....
Gary Zambrano Jul 2018
Something is missing
it doesn't feel the same
when I look at your eyes
they don't have the same passion
they used to have
when you smile, your smile
is missing something
when I touch you, I can't feel you
the way I used to
something is missing
this beautiful feeling is not
inside me anymore
I don't think it's inside you neither
the sun doesn't shine the same
even in a night full of stars
there is not magic
it doesn't feel the same
something is missing
we both know it, we both can feel it
we didn't want to say anything
I cannot lie to myself, today
I can't pretend anymore
something is missing, we let it scape
is not coming back, it broke
beyond repair
we tried to glue it together
but is not the same
something is missing
our LOVE is dead
Gary Zambrano Jul 2018
Sometimes I wish you were
here with me
I could see your face and
make you smile again
hold your hand take a walk, do the things we used to do
give you a flower, dance with you
sing to you or
just take you places where
we used to be free
where we used to make love and
talk about tomorrow
everything has changed life has go on, you walk a different path
you call someone else my love and your dreams are with him
I have someone by my side too, she's beautiful and smiles like you
she says she loves me, she has passion when we make love
she has everything we used to have, sometimes I wish it was not
that similar to what we had, I wish
it was not as powerful as our
relationship was, because
we didn't make it, is like living
the same dream/nightmare again
I do not want to wake up
and realize that she is gone too.....

The day that everything changed for me,
was the day you looked deep into my eyes
saw my soul and my dreams

the day that everything changed for me,
you extended your hands and
pull me out of the  
darkness I lived in,
to a beautiful and
sunny day just for me

the day that everything changed your me,
our lips created an unforgettable kiss like I always wanted to feel

the day that everything changed for me
you destroyed my demons
and set me free, forever
I know they don't understand
what you mean to me

the day that everything
changed for me, was when
you walked into my life
gave me a reason and
didn't let me quit...

They left with you
the beautiful days that I used
to wake up to
the flowers that used to be
in my garden
even the smell of the mornings
in love with you
those beautiful and shiny stars
that came at night
accompanying the white moon
we used to sing to
they left with you, all those things
are just memories
I carry in my heart, also what we used to call our dreams
the most beautiful moments,
the most beautiful time
everything that will never
comeback to my life
I want you to be happy
I ask God to protect you
to help you find your way
I learned to live without those things that you took away
now I'm a different person
I have scars in my heart
sometimes they bleed out
I will survive, you made me strong
I will keep on going to chase
new dreams, new memories
that way I will forget the ones
that left with you..

Time took my deepest love
ripped my heart in half
erased the smile
from my face
took my dreams and
broke me
until it made me cry
like I never cried before
time left me on the ground gasping for air and life
almost ready to take my last breath, almost ready to quit
time did all of this to me

time kept marching on and
little by little, I was able to catch my breath, I stood up
shook myself up and kept waking without knowing where was I going or
what was next

Life has its twist and turns
and time became my friend
I recovered my strength
my smile came back
and with it
my dreams emerged again
time handed me
a second shot
made me a stronger person
made me a better man
now is time for me to create
the world that lives
inside my heart.......

Today I saw you in the park
how time passes by
it has been long since
we said good bye
you were with him, you looked happy, you saw me too
you looked at me and for one second our  lives went back
to those days when we thought we were indestructible
when we were happy, and we had the forever in our hearts
for that second our souls touched again and we remembered
the love we left behind
when the second was over
we came back to today
you were with him, he looked at you, kiss you, gave you a hug
and you both walk away
I am happy for you, I hope
he gives you the forever that your heart deserves

Today I came back to the place
where I met you, where
we had our first kiss
so many memories here
my heart beats so fast
just thinking about them
I walked to our tree
I don't know if you remember
when we carved
our names inside a forever heart
is still here
I sat under its shadow for a little bit
I could not tell him that
you are not with me, so I just left
you can erase it if you want
whenever you come around here
I walked down the beach
so many memories here
like our names on the sand
I remember when we sat here
waiting for the sunset
who would it thought that years later we wouldn't be here together
thank you for everything
I know these memories
will never be erased
from your heart or from my heart
no matter what, no matter
who comes next to our lives
Gary Zambrano Oct 2018
Today I leave you behind
with the memories of those
beautiful days and
the wonderful times when
we were so happy and
the days when we had to
walk away from each other
today I leave you behind, I will take with me the smiles
and the good times, I will put them inside my heart
I will also take with me the moments when we cried
today I leave you behind
this wonderful love
this amazing dream, this whole picture that we put
in our minds, the kids that
will never come
today I leave you behind
here are the roses  
you used to love, here are the songs we used to sing and dance
here is the space that was our home
is empty and cold
this house that once was full of love today I leave it behind
I wish you the best, I hope you find what you are looking for
I will keep our memories
and love inside my heart
in that place where beautiful memories live and
nobody can touch them, a place that was reserved for you and me
today I leave you behind
I will never forget the way
we fell in love the first time....

I dreamed of you last night
I don't know why?
after so many years
you came back to my mind
I want you to know
I forgave you long ago
for all that you did and did not
I have nothing against you
I understood that you did
what you did becuase
it was easier for you
due to your lack of character
and manhood combine
with your full ignorance
you never stopped to realize
how much pain you inflicted
on my mother, my brother and I
God is great, time heals all wounds
without you knowing
without you realizing
you gave me the best gift
I learned at an early age
not to be like you
I am a great father
I care about my son
love him to dead
I always put him first,
I will help him become a great man
is funny how life turns out
I am a better person
a better man, sometimes my son
asks about you
I don't have anything to say, so sad that you were not a real man
Gary Zambrano May 2018
How fast time has passed
I still have this pain in my heart
I still feel something that I can't describe
I miss you, I love you, I wish I could close my eyes
wake up and you will be here smiling telling me, it's going to be okay and giving me a big hug
  then when I wake up all this pain
will be gone
I have a big wound in my heart and sometimes it bleeds
it hurts, I remember everything,
I remember those days
when you were here, people tell me she's happy, she's in a better place
but nobody can show me where, so
at night, I look at the sky and
I see the stars, I call one by your name then her light shines
I think it's you answering my call and letting me know you are okay
  for me it's been an uphill battle,
is been hard since you gone
but I will win, I got my strength
from you, I won't give up
I will keep you my heart
for as long as I live
don't worry about me, I am okay
I will dance my pain away
I will smile because, I know
you are smiling back from up there
with all my love, until
we meet again.....

To my son

thank you for coming to my life
when I first saw your eyes, I understood what love was
when I first touched your hands
I felt something
inside of me, I felt your presence inside my soul
when I saw your smile I knew, it could heal the sad part of mine
remember to Love yourself
more than anyone
if one day life brings you
to a dark place and
I'm not there with you look for me inside your heart
because I'll be there, it is my greatest gift to be a part of your life
don't judge people just love them
the way they are
remember to always  believe in yourself, remember YOU CAN!!
you have given me the
best days of my life
I remember your toys, I remember you playing in the grass
I remember you going to school,
I remember you growing up
learn to be happy not with a smile, but from inside your heart
I know that you will win over whatever life throws at you
I hope you will find your path,
thank you for everything,
you are the best part of me
thank you my son, I will always
love you with all my heart
no matter what

The human race is crying
pain, suffering and death
is trying to break
our will and strength
We will win, there is more good
inside each of us, to get us pass this
we will defeat it, with hope and faith
the invisible enemy, is not match
for the unbreakable human race

They had tested us before
and we didn't give up, we fought
victory is just up ahead
We will win, We will win

To our fallen heroes, God bless
your sacrifice made us stronger
and determine to defeat this
invisible enemy, we will fight
and, We will win again and again
