Nicolas Palacios Poems

Trapped on the ridge, hollow and alone,
A song of misfortune beckons me home.
Catch me wind, toss me aside,
The earth is your maiden in gracious disguise.
...

Mascara running, and her eyes look swelled,
Her teardrops take lives, as far as I can tell,
And she speaks to me,
In the most minute tone of voice,
...

Two brothers standing back to back,
A sick young shepherd’s heart attack,
Coins dropp down an empty well,
The gates open to the bowels of hell.
...

Lay my head down now,
Put me to rest,
Envision a world in which life was blessed.
Kiss my eyes as I fall into slumber,
...

A candle burns to light my path,
But I blow it out.
A hand gestures me to come forward,
But I push it away.
...
