There is
Still time
In the time
Without time
In the space
Without space
In the spacing
Between words
To speak
In silence
Of hate
With love
To forgive
The unforgivable
The words
That were
Never ours
Breathe
There is light
Behind the light
There is love
Behind the love
There is closure
Behind the closure
There is peace
Behind the peace
There is freedom
Behind the freedom
There is THE DREAM
And in that dream
There is everything
As nothing
The nakedness of life
Once again
so yes i miss you hoping trying chasing first kisses second chances last calls so here we are but you’re not here not there not anywhere just your words and your voice hip cute fruity cutting me like my own pain beautiful and sharp soothing my heart scratching my soul waking memories screaming begging let me go but i won’t because this is prisoner of love innocent sweet addictive horrified of freedom like slaves hope kept in the birdcage for too long scared to fly my love in chains rusting in the pulse of the universe
The love smells like you
Like sandalwood
Pierced by rays of sun
Early in the morning
In a brand new day
The love smells like you
Like the summer rain
When we don’t mind getting wet
Your sweat reminds me that
I’m counting drops on your skin
The love smells like you
I wear your white woolen sweater
When you're away
Breathing you
The alchemy of love
After
Your hands feel like after when we forget everything before tears rejection abuse bullying being called dirty faggots even the scar on your face from being beaten up just for being yourself is invisible now whatever happened before before your scar before Christ before COVID before dreams all those years months days minutes should I count seconds as well all that before becomes after and then after feels like after the storm all calmness peacefulness hopefulness openness as I love listening to your heartbeat gently whispering my dreams in your chest
In That Moment
I love us
In that moment
I feel you
Waking up
Just a heartbeat
Before me
Like your heartbeat
Is my alarm
Clock
Cock
I love us
In that moment
Every morning
Awakened to love
Once again
Simple as your eye boogers
David
You brought some weed
I bought a sandwich
And a bottle of cheap red wine
From the tiny bodega
Into the tiniest apartment
Without light
We were due for electricity
We were due in so many ways
As every night
We got stoned
Just a bit
And you said let's make love
I said let's fuck
The light from the streetlamp
Through the window
Was enough
To see your faithful eyes
The light from the streetlamp
Through the window
Wasn't enough to
Enlighten my fear to love them
We are
in the hourglass
Two grains
of sand
Moving
Infinitely
Up and down
Parallelly
Everywhere
Me
And
You
Still passing
Each other
in dream
alive
dead
that is
spinning us
Denis
your raw drawings born of gypsy blood boldly alive like red your chapped lips reconnecting in dreams kissing sunlit nights and touching starry mornings we are ancient and beautiful wild fearless fiery sweaty and you bought me flowers in a pot with the last of your money whispering my name like no one ever had the flowers died but i painted them so they would never die like frida kahlo did whom you loved so much
UNFUCK
i own up i’m fucked still just a little bit 'cause i unfucked all those tears all those fears all those years all those boys and girl stolen beats waiting for some miracle forgiveness of love wars drama teatro grande curses i unfucked them all almost all almost reborn almost blessed almost made it through the gate of innocence and being kicked out doesn't feel painful anymore i simply learned to love again
Very short poem
why am I poet
because
only beauty
can give me
goosembumps
of my own truth
