A lonely night of a lonely life

A lonely night of a lonely life

I let the light of the moon in

         as my lone companion

but a March cold embraces my night

           and freezes my time. 

My house is barely small

but empty is too deep.

Only the storm knocks on my door

           but when I run to invite the wind in

                    it is gone.

I can hear a truck passing far away

                     while stagnant thoughts

                              pound my solitude. 

POEM

Children's demands

In the middle of the night

when everybody is sleeping

my son shouts for a cup of water.

An hour latter my daughter

wakes up to demand, crying,  

a midnight princes’ story.

After a full day, of a full week, of a full month

of a full life, working full-time

my whole body feels like a rag.

Juggling from picking cloths,

to inventing answers to questions about dinosaurs

my brain becomes a burning taco.

 

How is that my children demand in a day

more attention than I ever had

in my entire upbringing?

ES IRONICO

Es Ironico

Es irónico que la vida sea tan corta y pasemos mucho tiempo esperando,

Esperando por un evento, esperando por una carta, sanar, que llegue,

Que nos llamen, que terminen, que 

Lo único que no me gusta de la vida es que hay que vivirla.

Lo que no me gusta de la muerte es que no tiene remitente.

No se puede estar vivo y ser feliz al mismo tiempo.

Si estas enamorado, estas atarudago por el amor y te envidio.

DONDE

No me pidas que me calle, no tengo mucho que decir pero lo que digo es esencial. Es mi vida convertida en tres palabras; ¿dónde hay amor?

No te engañes

No te engañes, no busques respuestas; no las hay. Esto que llamamos vida es solo un borrador, un largo y pretencioso borrador del que no quedara ni un solo recuerdo cuando despertemos todos los humanos colectivamente.
