Alejandro Torres Poems

Would my demise really be cause
For your concern
Or are you saying that
To play your face
...

Sometimes I wonder
Why the Gods thought it necessary
For me to know about you
I wonder why
...

How do I tell you
I still love you
The same as the first day
I laid eyes on you
...

Heady recognition of events
Daydreams that seem like memories
Of a future we’ve yet to fulfill
I spend early morning hours smiling in a daze
...

I walk the Spanish roads
And watch the ghosts smile as they walk by
What was I
Before you
...

We were learning to make fire
We were children pretending to be adults
We were mortals pretending to be Gods
She was a Goddess pretending to be mortal
...

What should I do
To make that smile appear
Should I climb Everest
And plant a flag
...

Keep your fingers crossed
Sinner keep that smile sincere
The times coming
For what will seem
...

If I turned back the pages
In the life I write away for you
Pining more with each day
Would I find the marker
...

Let’s walk hand in hand
Into the sun
Baby
Do me the honor
...
