Bore, Boredom

"Bore, Boredom" 2010
V. Ortiz Vazquez

Bore, boredom
How can it be?
Why at age 33?
What does it mean?
Surviving with a few “migajas del dia”
Not really living, just there
There

Bore, boredom
Few situations bring joy
Still secluded
Isolated
Not really living, just there
There

Bore, boredom
Moments of joy
Her and I
Written words
Visual inspiration
Joy

Bore, boredom
With occasional, polite, short conversations
Wondering when will it end
Looking around, searching for something more
Nothing
Once again trapped in the same routine
Why do I even try?

Bore, boredom
When it began? 
Why can’t I shake it away?
People
People ever where
Yet, I don’t seek any pleasures from them

Her and I
Written words
Visual inspiration
Joy

Bore, boredom
When will you stop?
Why make my soul your home?
Yet, I don’t know if I can survive without you
Perhaps I can, but don’t know how anymore
Still secluded, isolated

Her and I
Written words
Visual inspiration
Moments of joy

A moment of joy at age 33
What happened to the early moments?
Where did they go?
How can I get them back?
History with many missing pieces
Nevertheless, don’t forget the present moments for they are the ones that count
Grasp them, snuggle with them, cherish them

Bore, boredom
Her and I
Written words
Visual inspiration
Moments of joy
