ROMANTIC MUSINGS: What… If…?

img_3620

What dreams may come

If I look upon your face,

What nightmares might I fear

If you left without a trace

What comfort may I find

If I fell into your eyes,

What emptiness would I feel

If I looked upon the starless skies

What sweetness would I know

If your voice caressed my soul,

What silence would echo

Without you to make me whole

What instant would feel like forever

If my lips felt your kiss,

Would I be haunted by eternity 

If you became the one I’d miss

What cloud would I be on

If we danced to your favorite song,

What storm would I endure 

If the lyrics said you are moving on

What destiny may be written 

If you pierced my heart with my pen and blade,

Would a goddess give up immortality 

To be in love forever and a day.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Fantasy of Dreams

img_3618

Let my lips touch you

As the rain kisses the skies,

Let my sight kiss you

As love is felt in the eyes

I’ll fall for you again

The way I fell for you before,

The secret in your heart

That leaves you wanting more

I’ll caress you from a distance

As thoughts massage your dreams,

Let me be your fantasy

And make love what it seems

Maybe an illusion 

Maybe what you need,

Maybe I’ll hide in your shadows

As the poet your heart will bleed

Think of me at night

When you fall asleep,

Simply hold me tight

As your memory to keep

No te olvidaré

Cuando hablo con los dioses,

Los convenceré

Que eres mía entonces

If only for the moment

Cuando empiezo a soñar,

Les diré ahora que con mis pensamientos 

Eres tu quien quiero tocar!

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: If… Then…

If catching your eyes

Is like catching a star,

Then I’ll gaze at the skies

To be right where you are

If being at your side

Is like being in a song,

Then I’ll memorize the melody

And begin to sing along

If being in your arms

Is like being in a dream,

Then I shall never wake

From the realm of thoughts in stream

If hearing your whisper

Is like standing in the rain,

Then I’ll dance without an umbrella

And let them say I’ve gone insane

If tasting your lips

Is like coming back to life,

Then I’ll die a thousand deaths

For that kiss of man and wife

If caressing your hair

Is like touching the gods,

Then I’ll reach for heaven

And defy all the odds

Because if being your one

Means breaking my heart in two,

Then I’ll endure the devastating heartbreak

That proves my love is true.

ROMANTIC MUSINGS: Would It Be Enough?

Would it be enough

To see her in your dreams,

That glimpse into heaven

Where destiny is what it seems

Each second is a lifetime

You endure without a breath,

Love will last until the last

Beyond the reach of death…

 

Would it be enough

To have her in your embrace,

Holding your reason for breathing

Exhale, and she will leave without a trace

If she whispered your name

Would you catch her with your heart,

Guard her as your best kept secret

To never be apart…

 

Would it be enough

To lose yourself in her gaze,

To fall into the realm of her thoughts

And navigate her maze

Rush not to find her heart

Fret not that you’ll miss your fate,

In time you will discover

That she was worth the wait…

 

Would it be enough

To know you fell in love,

And you lived as many lifetimes

As there are the stars above

And whenever each star falls

Pulling away from the skies,

Would it be enough

To know that it is only for love

That even the strongest man cries.
