Tonight

Tonight I pace around my room.

I carefully recollect memories of times past.

Tonight I wonder if something could have been different.

But tonight I realize past is past. 

It is forever chained to memory,

Tomorrow I will look back and and notice

that tonight became unchangeable too...

Endless Night

When the day tortures you and you want to move on

When the worlds are turning and you don’t feel a thing

When you no longer know what the morning wants

You wake up in yourself and everything’s quiet

When you love so much that you can’t bear it

Come into the night, there’s another way

We’ll see each other here, on the shores of night

Where there is no today, no tomorrow

There you will lie on my arms.

We’ll declare our love

And as our last breath escapes

Our souls will blend to be together forever 

A Blogger's Trap

Again I fall into the typical blog trap. It has been about 20 days since I first started this new blog and after the novelty wears off, I just stop blogging. For that I honestly declare myself a bad blogger...and consequently a bad writer. But every change needs a start.

This few days I've been trying to get back on top of things. Besides writing some poetry, I am still outlining the sequel of my Dark Cloud manuscript. Also a few freelance jobs have been coming around so I'm particularly happy about that. With all this I'm expecting to be extremely busy. Add the new college semester that starts in about 10 days and I'll be begging for a break.

Anyways when  it comes to the blog I've decided (for the 100th time...) to do at least a weekly post. Honestly, I can't say what I am going to write about but I guess it is time for me to start working hard on this project.

I Sit Alone

I sit alone.

My life spinning around me,

and even when I need somebody,

I sit alone.

Darkness is my companion,

Sadness my eternal consort,

Even if happiness did show up,

I would prefer to sit alone.

Fall of Love

Fall of Love

I lay in the floor 

surrounded by walls of steel. 

I no longer can breath 

for the oxygen has become as dense 

as in the coldest and highest mountains.

No longer can I picture a bright, comforting future

for I lost everything when you said goodbye.

I had spent my life looking 

for the person that would finally love me,

and when I succeeded,

you just ripped my heart appart.

I lost my sense of time,

I lost my will to live.

I let myself fall to the blackest pit.

But one day I'll climb back.

For life must continue.

One day you shall realize

the mistakes of your actions

and when you come back

asking for forgiveness,

it will be my time to shine. 

Spring Breeze - Haiku

Spring Breeze

Running with the breeze

is the sweet scent of flowers,

as sweet as your love. 

Dark Cloud (Working Title) – Prologue

-Are you okay?- she asked him.

I think so – he said while looking at her. Stains of blood covered her body and clothes but he knew it wasn’t hers. He had just seen her eliminate three men with her sword, moving as gracefully as a gazelle, striking her enemies with the force of a lioness. They didn’t stand a chance against her.

-We have to move. There may be more nearby. – she said.

-Who are you? What did- he started to say but with a swift movement she was beside him. She dragged him to a corner, her body pressed against him, and covering his mouth with her hand. Just as he started to struggle he heard the voices.

-Where is he? He couldn’t have gotten that far? – said a hoarse voice.

-I don’t know, but he couldn’t have killed all of the others. Someone must be helping him. – responded a second male voice while others agreed to it. The boy could hear them moving closer and wondered if they would be able to hear the beats of his heart who was threatening to explode. At that moment the girl whispered something he couldn’t understand and a cold sensation struck his insides. He looked at her puzzled but she had closed her eyes with a concentrated look on her face. Then he saw them. About twenty men walking toward the place they were standing. They were too exposed. He wanted to run but her grip was getting tighter. Then it was too late.
