    My Equinox of time

    In «Sunflower and Moon’s Farewell,» I delve into the poignant emotions of bidding farewell to a cherished lover. Through the poem, I explore themes of transition, sacrifice, and longing, reflecting on the memories we’ve shared and the pain of our impending separation. Despite the heartache, I come to accept that we’re moving on divergent paths. This farewell signifies closure yet leaves room for reminiscing about our shared moments, acknowledging their significance in my life’s journey.

    Always in the flux of becoming and being, 

    A transitional fate we can’t help seeing. 

    A memory lost in crowded hands’ embrace, 

    Desperation’s call, loneliness’ cruel face.

    With shields against swords, we fought in vain, 

    Stabbed by feelings, hearts wounded by pain. 

    A thousand knives I took for you, my dear, 

    Yet by your hand, a million more appear.

    You, the Queen Bee, seeking in secret’s veil, 

    Wandering through fields, lost without a trail. 

    In Paradise found, or in hell’s deep hole, 

    Your purpose sought, your restless soul.

    Remembering nights devoid of innocence’ plea, 

    Death or life, emotions rising, wild and free. 

    Closer we drew, now further apart we stand, 

    Sunflower bowing to the distant moon’s command.

    Different trails we tread, bidding goodbye’s embrace, 

    No regrets, just memories of our shared space. 

    Missing you more, as time slips away, 

    Goodbye, my all, this is where I stay.

    QUACKTASTIC!

    My Equinox of time

    «Equinox of Time» is a beautiful and evocative poem. It captures the essence of balance, transition, and the ever-shifting nature of existence that the verses explore. It suggests a moment of equilibrium amid the chaos of life, where past and future converge in the eternal dance of time. It’s a fitting choice that adds depth and resonance to the work.

    This poem is rich with introspection and emotion, exploring themes of chance, fate, and the passage of time.

    The repetition of «the now, the then, and the tomorrow» creates a sense of cyclical inevitability, highlighting the complexities of human experience.

    The line «Think yesterday… act today… regret tomorrow» encapsulates the bittersweet reality of hindsight and the perpetual struggle to navigate life’s uncertainties. It’s a poignant reminder to seize the moment and embrace the present, even amidst the ambiguity of the future.

    In the grand design of fate’s scheme,

    It seemed orchestrated, yet unplanned,

    Not even across a million years,

    Was it pondered or foreseen,

    But stumbled upon as if by chance.

    We crawled through pathways to depart,

    Spent moments seeking sight,

    Yet no matter how far we strayed,

    The elusive moment slipped away,

    That fleeting glimpse of life,

    The instance we believed we’d vanished.

    In the definitive yet inconclusive realm,

    Within my precious, magnificent darkness,

    May your thoughts of me fade for now,

    Lingering only temporarily,

    For all invested, all deemed ‘wasted,’

    We drink to those moments,

    Raise our glasses to the sky,

    Pledge to the ‘land of togetherness,’

    Where dreams materialize,

    And naught remains but emptiness,

    An empty pillow, a miraculous cause,

    The nexus of now, then, and tomorrow.

    So allow me to rephrase:

    «Reflect on yesterday, act upon today, lament tomorrow.»

    «About the Poem: The Tin Man and Emotional Disconnection»

    This poem is a reflection on emotional numbness and the quiet decay that comes with pretending everything is fine.

    The Tin Man becomes a metaphor for a person pieced together, holding themselves up with cold metal and empty gestures. Behind the silence and the stillness, there’s a history of abandonment, broken games, and burned bridges.

    Like whisky over ice, feelings melt slowly but never truly flow. This is the journey of someone who walks without sound, who lives without beating, and who replaces their heart with air just to keep moving.

     

    The Tin-Man

    Bolts and metal
    Fixed together like skin
    No noises in my walking
    Rusty emotions
    Died in silence yesterday

    I was broken
    I was left behind
    In disbelief I lied
    Only dried eyes
    No pain in game

    The path in adventure
    One bitten hand
    Broken games
    Incendiary ice blocks
    That swim in my glass
    Like a whisky on the rocks

    The Tin-Man
    No heartbeats has
    When he comes
    No matter if he is fine

    Under the metal frame
    Lacks the happy days
    All what it was
    Implanted air
    Instead of a heart of flesh

    le fin.

    «About the Poem: Broken Realities and Emotional Liberation»

    This poem explores the inner conflict between authenticity and illusion. It’s the story of a connection with no real beginning, just scattered endings and emotional detours.

    Through short, sharp verses, it portrays the quiet struggle of pretending, the pain of misaligned intentions, and the bittersweet process of letting go.

    This is not just a goodbye—it’s a declaration of freedom. A transformation where vulnerability turns into liberation, and masks fall away to reveal the truth underneath.


    Real You Fake Me (LIBERATED)

    There shall be two kinds:
    The real you today,
    The fake me tomorrow,
    And simply no past…
    So it was…

    You were bad as I was kind,
    A story with no beginning,
    Plenty of endings (yes),
    Miles in lives (but),
    Eyes like knives.

    Now we are a memory,
    Distraction without action,
    Painting and waving,
    Feeling for living,
    Was bye and hello.

    I am vanishing,
    Seemingly,
    Vaguely,
    Agonizing,
    And finally…

    LIBERATED.

    Su nombre es «Intriga»

     Introducción:

    En este poema, se dibuja el instante en que dos almas se cruzan entre el deseo y el misterio. La escena se envuelve en un aire denso, casi irreal, donde el aroma del incienso y la luz del sol son testigos silenciosos de un encuentro breve pero profundamente cargado de emociones. La libertad, el juego de miradas y el roce de la piel crean un espacio donde el tiempo parece fracturarse. Aquí, la intriga no es solo un adorno poético, sino el personaje central que acompaña cada verso. Este texto es un tributo a esos momentos fugaces que nos marcan, a esas personas que llegan como un soplo y se van dejando su rastro en la memoria sensorial. Un diálogo entre el cuerpo y la palabra, entre lo que se dice y lo que solo se intuye.


     

    Su nombre es «Intriga»

    Vistes el incienso,
    aroma oscuro y profundo,
    delirio intenso, sofocante,
    mirada asfixiante.

    Derroche de libertades,
    firmabas tu viento
    al marchar,
    dejando tu forma etérea.

    El momento nos fue corto,
    los huecos del tiempo,
    segundos consumidos
    por el destello de tu piel,
    bañados por el sol.

    Intriga es tu nombre,
    misterio tu apellido.
    Cuando te conozca,
    serás bautizada por mi boca
    en cada rincón de tu piel.

    Y ahí nos perderemos,
    del delirio,
    por cada sendero,
    sin ser intriga ni misterio.

     

    le fin

    Shakespeare del Metaverso

    Escribo palabras consolidadas,
    📝 Al mirar al cristal, esperaba ansioso
    Tu mirada, con anhelo, amoroso,
    Un llamado, un mensaje que me arrobaba.
    En la videollamada, tras la ventana,
    Buscando un refugio para el cariño,
    😔 Dolor testigo, cuando el rocío
    De tus lágrimas, mi corazón baña.

    En TikTok, en Instagram posas bella,
    📸 Soñando vidas, sueños sin dinero,
    En el metaverso, sin un compañero,
    Buscas pasión en Tinder, sin secuela.
    En la banalidad, el cerebro yace,
    Trabajo fácil, sin mérito, lo tomas,
    😴 Disfrutas lo ajeno, mientras todo asomas,
    En tu hipocresía, el alma deshace.

    Doble moral, en reels, mensaje encierra,
    Empatía vendes, alma y cuerpo en venta,
    En un corazón azul, se alimenta,
    Tu deseo, sin rumbo, el alma yerra.
    En Facebook, brilló tu perfil un instante,
    📱 Entre likes y shares, tu imagen cuelga,
    Entre comentarios, el corazón se entrega,
    Mas en la pantalla, el amor es distante.

    En Twitter, tus pensamientos fluyen línea,
    🐦 En tweets y retweets, la mente navega,
    En 280 caracteres, el alma llega,
    Mas en la realidad, la soledad daña.

    En LinkedIn, brilla tu perfil, esplendor,
    👔 Conexiones y logros, imagen forjas,
    En la red profesional, tu esencia despliegas,
    Pero en la búsqueda, buscas tu valor.

    OnlyFans deseas, sin rumbo definido,
    🌐 Tu vida se pierde en desatino.
    Mostrando piel por un puñado de dólares,
    Sin tacto humano, solo por favores.
    Ofreces tu ser al mejor postor,
    En un mundo donde reina el error.

    Soy el Shakespeare del metaverso,
    Indago en tu cerebro disperso,
    Ideas ilusas sin cimiento,
    De tu realidad, un intento de escape,
    Tus fantasías hoy te atrapan, sin darte cuenta de tu naufragio en el tiempo.
