I Like - Poem
I like going home with your skin still caressing my thoughts,
I like sinking in the night with the memory of your eyes as my guiding star,
I like wandering in my dreams to find you wanting to be caught,
I like falling asleep and find you through this door of my imagination left ajar,
But above all I like having you growing in my mind.

I Have - Poem
I have your perfume lingering on me like a tale with no end,
I have the taste of your kiss in my palate,
I have the dream of your shadow on the walls of my life,
I have you on my mind!
I have you;
I have.

The Crow - Poem
Three wishes, if I only had three wishes, says the crow,
I would make myself pretty to be admired, to be loved,
And change my plumage to an incandescent rainbow,
So that no more I would feel despised or ignored.
Just three wishes, is all I need, says the dark flicker,
I would also make my call a delicate silky song,
And make my conversation the most delicate banter,
So that no more I would feel unheard or wrong.
This…

For I Have to Go - Poem
For my heart has been blessed by inclinations, many and pretty,
For my soul has been gorged with emotions, diffuse and bemused,
My life has gone by paths and ways that sometimes went awry,
Submitting my existence and will to a mind mostly confused;
For my diverse tastes have been educated by curious a palate,
For my likes have been directed by intransigent a character,
My learnings came by leaps and bounds, sometimes innate,
Plowing…

Last Night - Poem
Last night I dreamed that love was made in words,
In rhymes sensual and well made,
Or in prose beautifully naked,
Last night my verb was your world;
Last night I dreamed that words were all equal,
A whispered murmur or a loud cry all akin,
Both gently rolling on your silky skin,
Last night my world had you with no rival;
Last night in the dark shadows of the day,
I saw you glow intense and…

Like a Ship Sinking in the Night - Poem
Like a ship sinking in the night, with all her lights and barely a sound,
I have aimlessly languished in these dark corners of my mind,
where my life slowly drifts to a place with an unbreakable bound,
to let the light winds of despair die in my heart’s tortured wynd.
Like a ship sinking in the night, with all her lights and barely a sound,
I have needlessly delayed this new dawn on my crippled existence,
where my broken soul can heal from…

Was This All a Lie? - Poem
Rage, fury and all the stormy clouds that ravage the sky of my wasted days,
Be still this instant that I need to borrow from time, for I am seeking peace,
Regrets, frustrations and all biter thoughts that make the errors of my ways,
Be gone at once and leave my heart, for I have my inner world to appease;
How foolish of me to love so deeply something as brief and fragile as life,
How silly of me to live so fully in something as furtive and…
