Annabel Cruz Poems

How can I forget you
When the air I breathe
Is thick
With the memory of you;
...

The sun will continue
To rise and set,
Casting its radiant rays.
Clocks will continue
...

I want to dig my nails
Into the sky
And tear a hole in it.
I want to stick my head
...

She’s an aristocratic lady
Turning tricks on the streets.
Her silk and colored ribbons
Lying dirty at her feet.
...

I didn’t do a thing
I set out to do!
I didn’t fold the laundry
Stacked high on the couch,
...

If it is so
that I must stay
and you
must go
...

I want you to enter me
As you would a church
On our wedding day.
In silent reverence,
...

I have caressed you
Like an infant in my arms,
Tightly held against my breast.
I have fed you all my
...

This is the end
Of whispered “I love you’s”
Never to reach your ears,
Of kisses
...

Like a good mother
She has taken me in
And taught me well,
Given me the strength
...
