Welcome to my world!

No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.

My little poem for you!

The other day I was watching a video by Refinery29 in Facebook. This girl was teaching a little bit about poetry and she was giving some advice on how to write poetry. I love poetry. I consider myself a poet, perhaps I will never be one of those famous poets. Perhaps I will never reach that level but, I love writing poems. During her video, she invited everyone to write a little poem,  she said to just write whatever came to our minds. I did it and this is what I wrote: 


I love you

If you were in a horrible car accident and burned all your body including your face, I would still love you. If you committed the biggest mistake, my love for you would never change because my love for you is infinite and eternal and no matter what you do, my love for you is endless. I loved you, I love you and I will love you forever. I will be there by your side in the good and the bad. I will be your support and I am your most faithful admirer and lover. I love you not because you are perfect but because I see the great potential you have within you. I love you and I hope you always know that. I love you  with every component that I have in my heart and I love you with all that I have in me.

A beautiful night in June!

It was a beautiful night
a magical night in June
I was wearing a pink skirt
And you were being your awesome you.

I saw you from far away
And my heart told me: don’t let him go
I got close to you and said hi
And you looked at me with those beautiful eyes.

I gave you a big hug
I was happy to see your smile
It was the first time I saw you
After a very long time.

I went away to say hi to others
Thinking you weren’t gonna say much
But then you got close to me
And asked me if I wanted to dance

I said yes with a smile on my face
No way! I am dancing with him, I thought
Then you told me I was beautiful
And I wanted to kiss your smile.

We laughed and danced for a long time
It was a beautiful night
And I was praying in my heart
That you could forever hold me in your arms.

It was great seeing you
Nobody made me feel the way you did
It was a magical moment
That I wish I could repeat.

Now you’re gone forever
And you will never come back to me
Many things had happened
That showed me you are not for me.   

I just want to tell you
That you are the love of my life
That I would give my own life
To see again your beautiful smile.

Everything has happened
And our love will never be
Although I would give anything
To see you right next to me.

If you ever remember me
Hope you remember that beautiful night
And these dark brown eyes
Who admired you like I never thought.

Good-bye my impossible love
Good-bye to everything you made me feel
Thank you for the love you gave me
And the happy moments we spent together.
