Ode To My First Love

I don't regret anything that's happened between us 
every moment we shared with 
laughter, sadness and frustration
Oh how every moment was spent so lovely 
I'll have these memories to cherish forever 
As they will always be carried with me 
I wasn't innocent to believe that this was a forever thing
I was probably the most stubborn person you've met
but you'd shut me up and shower me with kisses reminding me that the end never mattered 
Your love taught me a lot
You introduced me to new music, new foods and different perspectives 
I'll never forget how you liked your food separated on your plate 
because the idea of your food touching drove you insane
you didn't have any OCD problem you were just weird like that
I'll never forget your huge obsession with Pokémon 
You drove me so insane with that and  I still couldn't quite grasp how to play
Our first date how we conversed for what felt like hours in that pizzeria downtown
That place will always leave a nostalgic feeling 
I know I'll have plenty of lovers but you'll always be my first love
My first real heartbreak 
You showed me one single person can make you feel 
Red, blue,purple and all the other colors at once 
I just want to say thank you for the wonderful experience
For it was all worth it

Your Love For Me

Your love for me has died
I am shattered In pieces
a broken doll
Pieces of my body scattered all over the floor
I can't stop crying 
I am a broken record player
My screaming thoughts have awoken the neighbors
your love for me has died
My dear all that lingers
are our cries and laughter's
that we shared
A scrapbook half filled with memories
spent at family parties, barbeques
and special anniversaries
it's sad to say your love for me 
has died.
I've come to accept this hardship
This isn't the end of my book but 
the beginning of a new chapter 
your love for me may have 
died but the love I have 
for myself hasn't

The Alcoholic

His lips kiss the tip
Of the beer bottle 
Like he’s kissing the most attractive woman on earth.
But this isn’t his only lover.
His lovers are Bacardi,1800s,Hennessy,Jack Daniels,Buchanan’s
And the list goes on.
He continues being involved with his lovers,
At the huge risk of losing everything he claims to love.
He doesn’t care anymore.
How can such infidelity ruin a person.
He’s letting such lovers, drown him in his ocean of madness and desire.
His family sees a desperate alcoholic in need of help  
He doesn’t see that, the man that reflects on the mirror
with eye bags and a grown out beard 
Is a man living the beautiful anthem of life.
And he never wants  the anthem to stop playing...

One Night Stand

When you first laid hands on her did you think of me ?
Did her lips kiss you the way I did ?
Did she slur your name the way 
I would when our bodies perfectly molded together 
Did you close your eyes and imagine 
My hands on your body as you felt her body heat and her feeling yours
Tell me ,did I ever come to mind?
Did she manage to make your toes curl ?
Did she make you crave for more ? 
Tell me love,did she taste like me ?
Was she able to fill that space you know can’t be filled 
Was she able to solve that complex puzzle you call your heart 
Because we both know only I can manage giving you the pleasure you seek;
Emotionally,physically and mentally

Letter To Society

Dear society
stop bringing me down
stop making it seem like my thin eyebrows whom I inherited from my beautiful mother is wrong.All because it doesn't fit your beauty standards.As if the only way for eyebrows to look good are for them to look thick
stop bringing me down just because my lips don't look like kylie's injected ones and don't get me wrong she looks amazing !
When you degrade the features i've been made with 
you degrade my parents,my parent's parents and so on
Stop bringing me down just because my body does not demonstrate a small waist
big butt and boobs
it does not mean i don't define beauty
My skin that suffers with acne and scarring
does not mean i do not fit into the category of beauty 
There is no such thing as perfect skin or a flawless human being 
I am made up of many flaws 
My nose that contradicts the portrait of a beautifully shaped barbie face
And my tiny eyes that hold together my tiny lashes.
Everything about me is flawed and that's okay because I am proud to be who I am and how I look

Women

Growing up, I've learned from both my abuelas experiences 
that you should never let a man define you 
you do not need his pity gestures in order to feel good about yourself 
and most of all you don't need to open your legs in order
to be considered a "woman" 
or in order to seek their fulfillment before yours
you do not need a man who does not encourage your growth and beauty
how dare him, how dare him reflect his insecurities on you 
this is like telling a flower to stop growing because growing makes them 
beautiful and eventually others will want to pick at them
but you see growing is what makes a flower such as ourselves bloom into something we all aspire
we crave to be like other girls 
with tiny waists,big butts,clear skin and so on 
the same way others crave to be us
we spend so much time picking at every insecurity that 
we waste tons on beauty products 
so that we can get rid of the age wrinkles, the acne scarring, makeup to cover
up the flaws we behold
all because that's how society wants it 
we are all beautiful
we don't need these false advertisements
that makes us believe that getting them will make us "beautiful" 
when we already are 
we have to learn to embrace our ancestors genes
prove to them we will nurture ourselves into becoming what they couldn't 
back then women were slaves to their husbands 
self love did not exist for them 
so you see, do not ever think you are not worthy enough 
you are intelligent 
you are brave 
you are strong
and you are beautiful 
so its time to turn all your insecurities into seeds and grow them 
every flower blooming at its own time
encourage all the women around you 
we might have all been born in different wombs but at the end of it we are all 
sisters
so imagine a world where we work together and bring all each other up wouldn't that be great?
a world where there's no competition 
between women 
no comparison 
just love

This Love

My body is in such a knot, My legs feel paralyzed.
I'm stuck here with this feeling of Numbness,
feeling like a poorly wired circuit
Your eyes make me feel secure
and when you hold me ,it feels like I'm home
Funny how a person can bring such 
comfort
This intimacy my love,is it real?
Do we both feel this intense connection
My mom never warned me of the dangers
of falling in love.How it leaves you so 
heedless and numb.
As I feel the hot tears streaming 
down my face
I feel my body tensing up
after hearing you say "I love you " 
with such an impassive tone
But no matter how deadly this routine
is,i'll always be stuck.
Hanging on to this feeling I believe is love
But is this really love?How you treat me?
This "love" you seem to give me
As if touching my body was the immediate key to forgiveness
The thought of this puts me in raging frustration 
I start pulling my hair 
and picking my skin
You ask me what's wrong
and in my head I say "it's you"
But I sit there in silence
I then start suffocating on your sweet words
And again back in the same place 
with the same feeling  of paralyzation

Untitled

Some things aren't meant to be 
no matter how well they fit the picture
or complete the puzzle
The world works in mysterious ways
In ways that sometimes 
we won't understand
But remember there's always a lesson
Things happen for a reason
For a better version of ourselves to be established
To open ourselves to new perspectives
To remind ourselves that love
isn't meant to be perfect or to last forever
it's meant to break us,tear us apart
until we can longer be teared.
Make us cry,beg,make us feel like nothing this exquisite 
will ever  come our way again.
And that's the point 
To have a spoonful of how love is suppose to be
That way we're prepared for the right one
Some people walk into our lives and 
show us this and they make it feel like the right one
and you might think a love like this will never exist again
But it will ,And it will be twice as beautiful ,twice as charming 
And as I will forever be a hopeless romantic... 
T.H

July17

There are nights where all I think of is you 
it's like a bomb in my heart waiting to go off 
The memories come running through my head 
like a beautiful movie with an ugly ending 
playing nonstop 
I start missing you insanely
driving me into a high  no stoner could ever achieve
It's dreadful to know that here I lay in bed with all this misery
while for sure ,you're in yours sleeping like a baby

The City I Love

This cool summer breeze dancing around me as i sit on the rooftop of downtown brunswick 
Admiring the beauty of the city
New brunswick had a different vibe at night, it wasn’t as hectic
It brought peace and a rushload of memories 
Like the times me and my friends would come up here because we only felt that sense of freedom up on the roof , that aliveness that the clouds brought as they creeped with the sunset 
New brunswick will always be home , no matter how many miles I move away 
The burger and bubble tea place on easton  will always serve the best , just like the cute record shop across the street that will always be hip
A lovely city , no doubt 
The process of  murals covering the walls and the community coming together to get rid of hate
It is a beautiful growth of what’s to come
