Michelle Candelaria Poems

The bright rays of the sun
The breeze of a strong wind
The melodious chirping of birds
The lively laughter of children
...

As the leaves of memories fall
And swept away by a cool breeze
You will suddenly realize,
This kind of pain is intolerable
...

Feel the stab of the sparkling knife
That lightens the shadow of death
As you reminisces the memories
Of a bright and happy spirit
...

In the silence of a night
As the world drown into a deep slumber
A painful, unbearable cry was heard
From a young woman of softness, and
...

Hurried breakfast; hurried shower
Hurried ride; hurried walk
Hurried work; hurried snack
Hurried lunch; hurried rest
...

It was late
I was tired
Staring at the moon
Waiting for a shooting star
...

You came in from the meadows
At a time when everything was so light
Like a thief in a middle of a still night
Like sorrow amidst a celebration
...

Pull the trigger
But don't shoot me
Bite
But don't sip
...

Let my eyes see every detail
Of the darkness that will abound
And the cries of those who are abandoned
Disturb my eternal repose
...

Torn pages of sweet painful stories
Browsed by hands of addiction
And scanned by eyes with anticipation
Cut the metal sheet cover of the corpse
...
