How long?

It's been a long time since
I've seen your face my love
And it is your voice
That I miss the most...
I have left you
For a very long time
But I still love you and love you still
But it is your heart
That does not want my love
And I still love you
But I still love you
It is our soul
That ways for the love I hold
It is you’re my love
Always belong to you
If you must know!

By Maileen Torres Rodriguez

I am a poetess;
where the cry not cries,
where the tear are not cardboard.
Where the soul rests so close to heart,
where the eyes look more than they say not to see.

I am a poet;
where the letters disclose,
The feeling of every being
that it exists near,
far, in pain and that ephemeral happiness
that surrounds our existence...
