Let It Be
Now that I am no longer blind,
And we are totally apart:
I need different thoughts in my mind
And new feelings in my heart…
I must stop dwelling in my past,
Just take different paths and move-on
Since many things in life never last,
Change the course of my life and be strong;
And once and for all, burial my past,
Whether I was right or I was wrong…
Life is beautiful and my love is vast,
It is time to listen to a new song….

A Truth
Resolution is
The triumph of pain
Rising above a cause
Possibly known only to one...
Conditioning oneself
To dis-value scourers
Of disloyal contradiction
Pursuing a stale game
Of jeopardy and injury...
What benefit can ensure?
Acute irritation
A barbaric code of justice
Penetrated by stones
Bruising the penitence of sin...
Ally for alibi
Examinations cost
A separation wronged by doubt,

Time For A Change
No, my friend,
You are not my rival!
Now it is your turn
To deal with the shadow
I left behind long ago,
I have already been there....
Even though it sounds no fair,
There is no chance of return,
Since of that tormented past I let go...
I have become a true survival
And my life is taking a new trend
Without any hesitation,
Setting up the foundation,
Of new and clearly path to follow,
Patiently awaiting for
A new love's arrival...

With The Twilight of Evening
With the twilight of evening
An angel slips by and disappears
But is not lost
On the grass of forgetful evenings
Her eyes beckon….
Let her not know
That I the poet am possessed
By the memory
By the perfume of her…
And I swear, by the evening
That all my days are evenings
When at every instant
Come another sunset
And in the same evenings
The same eyes
Take away the memory of her…
Oh Angel! ! ! Oh Evening…
I truly love you, woman!

Never Giving Up
Barely conscious
Or hardly caring which way
I face the World,
I take a bolder step,
Traveling steadily
Against the wind
That is sometimes too strong,
An air so cold
That it numbs my senses
Until I feel myself
Turned inside out…
II try to keep the direction
I have set for
So that somehow,
I will arrive somewhere
As I know the path
I have followed
Has brought me
To a better place,

She Resembles You
Amazingly
She resembles you...
The way she smiles
Dances and talks
The way she looks at me
With those bewitching eyes
Just like yours.....
With her long streaming hair
Voluptuously touching my face
while we crazily dance...
She resembles you
Her deep breath
Gently caressing my ears
The magic of her beauty
Driving me insane
My heart now confused and afraid
Of becoming the victim
Of just another love's game,
Like the one with me you played...

The Way To Go
As every day goes by,
And everywhere I go,
I deeply think of you….
I have come to realize
That the time has arrived
For me to let you go…
From my heart and mind,
And this time forever….
Just simply, let you go…
It won't be easy,
But it can be done,
Once and for all…
Let somebody else,
Put the pieces back together,
And mend my now, broken heart…
we will build together,
A new bridge that will lead us:
to an everlasting love…

A Carbon Copy
Rubbish, written rubbish
I can't show it to anyone I know
They'll get the wrong idea,
They'll think I am fatalistic,
A desperate soul...
(But isn't he clever!)
Too bad he can't control his thoughts
They should be more like ours
We are society, the community,
We dictate the acceptable attitude,
The right way to think and write...
But who-are we
But individuals, first
And finally individuals
Suffocating from individualism...
Or lack of it-...!

Sound Of Silence
Mute to words of reason,
Lost intention gropes
Dim in the memory
Of a past forbidden love and hope
That seem forever lost...
Echoes still persist,
Repeating the message
Delivered by suggestion
In the deafness of language...
Empty, empty canyons
Make louder wanting sounds
And their silent ways
Become vivid footprints
Of mindful grounds...
Tunes ardently played once,
Impressing within her ears,
The sphere of sound

New York City-part One
It comes daily
Not always on Sunday,
Sometimes not at all
Or gets lost
Returning too late
For what it's worth
In the past tense...
Passing from hand to hand
Another transfer
Identification
Always upon request
Pictures, please!
And a signature...!
Point of departure
And destination,
Must be linked
With reference
To validate
