Meny Alonso Poems

Darling I’m so sorry
About all the things I put you through
I never mean to hurt you it’s just things have this funny way of turning out
I don’t want to make any more excuses
...

A betrayal of the worst kind
To reach around and plunge that blade into your back
While I look you in the eyes
...

Lying in crisp cool whiteness
Lulled by soft whispers of stories past
No longer one but two lost in pale vastness
Luminous in the moonlight
...

I love drawing you into me
Breathe me in watching the words
Fall out of my mouth.
Sense the movement of lips,
...

She made her appearance noiselessly
While the Aztecs bathed
The temple stairs in blood
And pencils scribbled furiously
...

You must have passed me by
Because I smelled you
I know it was your scent
That made me turn around
...
