Love Poem
ANONYMOUS
You over there, me over here
One of us is out of place
I'm always happiest when you're near
Hands clasped to bridge the space
I'm going to say it, though it doesn't sound right
The seconds are too long and the months are too short
Whenever I'm with you my heart takes flight
Yet time is seperation's greatest cohort
I love when we're together
I miss you when we're apart
But nothing could ever break the tether
That ties you to my heart
One of us is out of place
I'm always happiest when you're near
Hands clasped to bridge the space
I'm going to say it, though it doesn't sound right
The seconds are too long and the months are too short
Whenever I'm with you my heart takes flight
Yet time is seperation's greatest cohort
I love when we're together
I miss you when we're apart
But nothing could ever break the tether
That ties you to my heart

Where Have you gone
BY Alexandra Carrillo
Do not leave me. She whispered,
Do not forget me.
In his home alone, there he felt trapped.
By memories, by his emotions, by pain that resurfaced
Where has the snow gone, please when will
you return to me? She of all people,
He can never forget, never repress. once the snow melts,
A wave of broken images, a pile of shattered hearts resurface
It overwhelms him. Destroys him.
The flowers that regrow allow no comfort, no relief.
And the memories only allow severe scorching heart ache. Only
There is no grace in the beginning of life,
(See the world through his eyes),
And he will show you the suffering that comes with
Surviving a war
losing that to which you have always lived for
Or being abandoned and left alone with your loneliness,
Alone in your own sea of regret drowning
He will show you the misery in spring
Selfishly inviting life into a world where even the purest bleed
The mercy in winter
the numbing comfort in forgetting
If only he would.
where did you go my love?
“I will wait for you here in this home.
Come back to me soon”
--Yet when I finally returned, there, in the ruins,
Your warm touch cold, and your last words faint,
I lost you there and lost myself,
I crumbled,
As did you under the rubble, your silence
it was unbearable
Me, the man, who had accepted his fate, who
Had awaited his death on the battleground,
Did not foresee this future. I did not know,
I did not know I would be the one bidding you goodbye,
(This was not to happen. No!)
Please. Come back to me.
you, the woman who had promised,
was lying motionless and still.
No longer able to reassure me
A promise, you had broken, here in the wreck.
A man's spirit you have crushed as you drew your last breath
And with one life turned to dust, here
Our spirits perished, in this heap of ruins,
Here now seems empty. I lose myself in oblivion,
for I am now
nothing.
As I have lost you, I have lost everything.
I am sorry.
Today that I mourn there is another life born to
replace your existence,
Because the world is such a cruel place,
And it continues to spin nonetheless, and I
avoid this painful reality.
Not letting go, a life that is meaningless and broken, I have decided,
I wish not to forget you.
Because I do not wish to say goodbye,
A price must be paid, and I will remain as I was that day.
Now the snow has melted, and as I walk pointlessly, I mutter,
“Where have you gone, my love?

AS THE COLD SUN RISES
ICY AIR NIPS AT YOUR EXPOSED SKIN
PEOPLE FLOOD COFFEE SHOPS AND STANDS
THE SMELL OF RICH, WARM DRINKS FILL THE AIR.
THE TIMES OF LIBRAS, SCORPIOS AND SAGITTARIUS’
A SEASON FOR SOFT ORANGES, DARK GREENS, RANGES OF REDS AND BROWNS
IT'S THE TIME FOR JACKETS AND SCARVES AND LONG FLOWING COATS
IT'S FALL
THE BEST TIME OF YEAR
IT MAY BE HALLOWEEN
BUT THAT'S NO NEED TO FEAR.
