Poesia (26.1)

Unfolded

I have had my share
Of broken hearts,
I have had my share
Of breaking hearts;
It does not mean
I am broken.

Poesia (26.0)

Marks
1*question
a matter of some uncertainty or difficulty; problem

2*fright
a sudden intense feeling of fear.

The matter has been
Asking questions.
Questioning my furry chest
That insists to sleeping under
Unknown ceilings.

Why have such actions led me
Into the dark side of my eyes?
Leaving,
As immensely freeing as it may be,
Has never meant the same to me
As I know it has to others.

The hypocrisy in affirming such nonsense
Hides from myself
The guilt in hurting the hearts
I had left by the roads.

I meant no harm;
Did I?

Asking questions is dangerous.

Are you where you
Have felt you’d like to be?
Can you see,
Can you really see,
Yourself in the mirror?
Does it crack during the day?

Are you able to explain
Your fright of happiness?

What have you been hiding
From the ones who meant to care about you?
What have you been suggesting to yourself
As you go over the radio looking for
Missing pieces of your past?

Is it a choice to be happy?
Why have you been choosing otherwise?

Poesia (25.9)

Neon Lights

un·eas·i·ness
noun
a feeling of anxiety or discomfort.
"I sensed the uneasiness of people around me"


To find myself by myself
In order to bark over new trees.

Few moments ago:
Was I really here?
Had I left my heart?
How could I do such thing?

Impossibilities came to my fingertips
So that I would move on
Towards me.

To misunderstand my heartbeat
Has been my biggest crime;
Not listening to my voice
Has made me repeat patterns;
Uneasiness has taken my eyebrows
But no longer I shall let
Such fierce fear
Overshadow
My neon lights.

Poesia (25.8)

Into My Eyes

Tenderness frowned upon
My chest
While in bed;
When you glazed at me
With your soul
Looking.
