The World that I know
Cuts deep and digs in
It grabs at my soul
And won't let me go
I'm at its mercy
It's prey all day
Trying to break free
Growing from within
It's plans of New World Slavery
Slowly closing in
In all of my thoughts
And under my skin
I'm being pulled beneath
Leviathan!

The storm in me
Is the conflict you cant see
Who i am, or am not
Supposed to be
The person i was,
Because and should be

Someone who was
Smart and strong
Needed and belonged
Confident without hesitation
A patriot of this great nation and
A loyal friend If ever you needed one

Today though some see me differently
They say im a
Disappointment with disabilities
Slowly ruining a reputation
A product of my environmental instabilities
Falling short of an expectation

But sometimes there's nothing you can do
When life interferes with predesitination
And redirects it down a path unsecurred and
Opened to translation.
Just as it did to me...

Now everyday is exactly the same
But completely different
I wish I could explain.

Who I was back then
Came to his end that beautiful day in May
And what was left
is what is now
A conflict that no one sees
The Storm inside of me.

hey baby,
I'm hoping so much
to see you tonight.
I sent you a letter,
i hope it found
its way to you alright.
It's been sometime now
since we've sat to chat.
so tonight i was hoping
to do just that.
I don't know exactly
how you feel about
me these days,
as for me you need
not worry,
my love for you is
as strong as always.
as of recent though,
I thought i felt you slippin away.
It seems your
attitude towards me,
Isn't exactly what
it used to be.
So before this gets
and goes any further,
To where you're
out of my reach
and i slowly begin
to become a bother.
I was hoping so much
to see you tonight,
so I can hold you
in my arms
with all of my might.
And with no alarms
And no surprises.
I'd offer to you
with all of my love,
My heart and these Compromises.

A Poem to my wife Michelle
Alvaro Avila Jul 2018
When the rain touches my face
It imitates my tears
It hides all my distaste
And all of my fears...

It hides when I'm missing you
And im feeling down
Or when I'm sad and blue
Cause you're not around...

It hides whom I want no one to see....
                            Me.

You expect for everything to work your way
But in no way,do you accept to work for anything

Once upon a time
As time was once upon us,
Would have you and I in love and to dream of
Although today, we are nothing more then...
Were before's
Way back then
Used to be's
But today just friends

Once upon a time
Ex-partners in crime
You keep yours &
Ill keep you in mind
But today though
Still just friends

Once before's
Way back when
Now nothing more
Then acquaintances

Agreed upon unanimously
Too,new beginnings
With two different ends
Never will be's
Ever again
Now just bad memories
Of an Ex-benificial friend

Yesterday's news
Last Months Blues
We're before's
Still no-more's
Weren't really even back then
Yet someone I catch myself still missing
My Ex-Selfie sharing ,best friend

Remember me as you'd like &
Think of me what you will
But remember to celebrate my death as you will be celebrating your life
