28 Poem by DIANE RAMOSFERNANDEZ

Loving you is like stealing the sunlight from the morning.
I hate the idea but your warmth is something I need
Scatter your heat, melt my frozen days with my cold being
I will keep your warmth ever consuming and tightly sealed.

Loving you is like borrowing dreams of others for mine.
Though I've my own, a dream without you isn't as enchanting
Possess me, own me with your stare, disarming and divine
A dream inside a dream, interlaced and never-ending.

Loving you is like plucking the stars to brighten my night.
The stars are too many, too crowded in the black, black sky
While the whole world sleeps soundly, I quietly take their light
I shall sleep as soundly as stars sing me a lullaby.

Loving you is like unveiling a new life before me.
My heart never felt so alive as it beats twice as fast.
The colors blue, red, yellow became more than primary
The varying degrees of love to which no one else has.

Loving you has turned me into many different persons.
I stole, I borrowed, I plucked all there is just to feel you
But the one thing that shall be constant in these occasions
Is my great love that remains and shall remain yours and true.

This is all I know, all I do when our hearts are apart.
Express through endless words my faithful love for you to know.
Of how all my arteries merged to be one with my heart.
Loving you today and to love you much more tomorrow.
