I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized

The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind

If I could paint a man Eyes so dark they shine Brooding and stormy Til the smile breaks through If I could paint a man

My objective is selfish Not to share or be heard To get it out and move on No one seems to hear my pain No one seems to feel my pain

A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers

The pine trees Reach up On both sides Of the road Telling me

I’m watching a woman in a bikini In great shape with a swollen bell… Play with her puppy named Gatsby A Hispanic family comes The little girl dips her feet in

Why can’t I choose to be somewhere in the middle? Surrounded by extremes Measure everything With a grain of salt

Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly

No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo

Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés

Que te cuentan un chiste Las palabras se traducen Pero el humor no se puede Por si no lo entiendes Ríete
