Jay Aguiniga Poems

At the local diner
Baby, you're sitting across from me,
...

I have always truly loved you,
Several times over the years the heart shattered.
But the adhesive layer of love,
Has always kept its shape.
...

As a child I knew nothing of boundaries...
Imaginary friends, in the mind nothing of war or enemies
My mother shaped my dreams,
father embedded, and unfolded life's schemes
...

Baby it used to be,
That our dreams aligned.
Our love used to be,
You near to me.
...

Darling each step together,
Leaves an impression of memories.
Our dreams drawn together
By footprints in the sand.
...

Mahogany stained wood, silky canvas, satin sheets.
Tangible outlined bodies, glistening moisture
and a cool summer breeze.
Laying intertwined, in a emphatic dream.
...

A haunting comes calling
time from time.
It wanders from the soul
To the mind.
...

We always knew,
chance might come some day.
Like a whisper in the wind,
I might have to go far away.
...

My kingdom is the depths
Of a light that has lost its hue.
I’m the fallen one who
Your anger speaks too.
...

Oh, baby I can see
The strength you bring to me.
I'm sorry at times a glimmer of doubt comes to be.
But baby it’s not you, it’s just me.
...
