Far behind is the kid
Bright eyes always smiling
Hoping to get the most of life
Turning and turning and changing directions
Looking confused when something goes wrong
Not understanding the sense of adventure
Questioning always the meaning of life
Far behind is the boy
The one that one day will discover his body
And will hide all his feelings afraid of the truth
The one who all of a sudden will shut his smiles
The sadness invading torrential turmoil
Far behind is the young teenager
The one who walks on water
Who cries for an answer forgiveness from God
And then he resolves it is time to grow faster
The mirror reflects not that kid anymore.

But shows a great man,
ReplyDeleteA man who thinks too little of himself.
A man who built his life from scratch,
And feels as though he has nothing to show.
But this man has everything a man could want:
He has 2 wonderful loves, a son, a healthy life,
And a family that adores him.
Today this man sees that once there was
A little kid who embraced life,
Who turned to boy who ceased to smile,
Then to a young teenager who pleaded with God,
And today he is the hero of them all.
That is what your poem should say. I cannot imagine that you think this way, you are the most amazing person I have ever met, you caused a fire within me, that lusts for love, and you have given me the desire to write freely. You are one of, if not, the most important man in my life, so please don't do this to yourself. You have come a long way, and I see you going even further and living an even happier life. And I promise that our life will be as magical as the movies depict others' lives. Te amo mi amor, te quiero más que a la vida, y tú me tienes en tu vida para siempre, como prometí.
