Spending Some Time

As I sit here having coffee, enjoying the cool breeze coming through my sliding door, I am counting my blessings. God has been so good. There are simply no words that can fully describe the enormity of my gratitude. Lately, I have felt myself becoming more and more quiet, desiring less and less to be...

Bowing Out

If there is anything that 2020 proved to me when I was in the hospital is that my circle of friends was very small. Real friends. Then 2021 came around and I found myself reaching out to people, but realizing they just didn’t reciprocate. Conclusion? My circle is tiiiiiiny! All those other people draining my...

Mil Mares

Mil mares entre los dos Mil nubes sobrevolando Mil meses sin vernos Mil años sin besos Descanso mis ojos Descanso mi piel Descanso mis pensamientos Descanso mi ser Aun… El mismo sol Cual ambos vemos La misma luna En cual ambos nos bañamos El mismo aire Cual ambos respiramos Pero esta ancia?

Por Fin, Adiós

Duele doler y no saber si el amor que hubo fue verdadero Debo realizar que los cuentos son para los niños, Y no creer leyendas cultivadas en tu obscuridad Que poco de poco, poco hombre fuistes, eres y siempre serás Aun, pasan los años, escuchando tus cuentas por contar Fue solo mi tiempo gastar Si...

Que tal

Que tal hubieramos dado todo Qué tal hubiéramos entregado todo ¿En vez de orgullo o duda? Tu sonrisa decía tanto sin tener que dirigir una palabra Tu mirada dibujaba tus deseos con solo pestañear Tu voz endulzaba mi día, me elevaba a otro nivel Los años pasan y todo sigue igual El piso se mueve...
