Saudade Poems

SLEEPLESS SAUDADES





Hours pass, days pass,
eternities travel...
Life sings the same
old song...
Music of our lives...

Happiness-little bird released
that we still want to catch with our hands...
without the same skills...

Beautiful times that now we only remember,
between whispers and faded sighs...!

Saudade

Saudade 
 
O que será... Não sei... 
Quem sabe ninguém sabe.
Saudade... 
Olá, alguém sabe o significado?
Saudade... 
Dos tempos idos,
Tempos d’antes

Hoje,
sem mais,
nem menos descubro, 
e seu segredo me alcança,
saudade do ombro a ombro
de fazer mais e mais.

Both A feeling of remorse,a feeling of happiness .

Oh!what should I feel,oh !what should I do to stop

It's telling me the time is running but what do I want exactly
To be at a

Saudade Missing Longing

Saudade, the most personal beast
that life devours...
 A gigantic absence of disarray
 that settles in life...
 A bitterness, virulence
bacteriological nostalgia...l

Saudade For Friends I Have Lost

Saudade for friends I have lost

as I get older
I lose more people
every year

more people I knew
have died moving on 
and I mourn their lost friendship

wished I had been 
a better friend for them
and knew them better

and with the corona virus
spreading around the world
I will lose so many more

in the coming year
as the virus spreads
its malignancy

Portuguese ships sailed to overseas for trade routes with their

All those talks we had, your breath smoky.
All those plans we had to someday meet.

And then I felt the fear turning my legs icy
while we climbed toward the sky’s craggy peaks.

Were you safe didn’t matter compared to gloom
and encapsulating castle with weird turrets.

I knew you by the peeled bark bared to bloody red,
all cork removed

His eyes on me were dark and bright.
Two burning coals, they pierced my soul.
My lover, my once-upon-a-time bright flame!
How fiercely we burned into each night. . .
those long delicious nights when youth
was as sweet as wine
and fresh like a blood red rose newly bloomed.

Yet how long did we expect that we could burn
before our flames

To think again of what could have been;
Those painfully painless imaginative dreams of cloudless days
with winds whispering love's scent through new spring clover,
of walking barefoot through the glistening cool of morning dew,
listening endlessly to the song of your laugh.
If this is all I will have of you,
I shall know no grief.

Saudade

A nostalgic feeling drowns my spirits 
                 As I stare longingly at scalloped purple horizons
           Tacenda that hurts deepest core
