Ernesto Torres Poems

My breathing was labored
and my saliva was blood flavored
coming from deep in my through
staying away from the battle being fought
...

I lay on a building
so peaceful
so quite
...

There is many says
of what happens before you part ways
with your body
to somewhere holy
...

4.

Darkness floats into my soul
for everything i know is a lie
there is no point just to die
i was a fool
...

Grasping my chest in terror
hoping to wake from this horror
of this nightmare
in which i stare
...

I am eternally falling
into a hopeless abyss
full of horrid bliss
for i am no longer hoping
...

There is never enough time
especially for me
it should be a crime,
but that is not what i see
...

Hope is a lucid dream
something that seems
so close touch,
but it burns so much
...

I feel so lost
so ignored
and at what cost?
to have all my emotions stored
...

My eyes grow heavy
from all that heavies
my tired soul
from the world making me a fool
...

11.

Greed is jealousy's father
its great enough to bother
every soul
from who they stole
...

Silence...
is all that's left
its a sentence
one that does not rest
...

The darkness surrounds
and then it pounds
deep in my soul
that makes my heart bawl
...

There is a pain brewing deep in my heart
so deep i don't know were to start,
but what is worse than the deed done
is when i needed help there was no one
...

How come people run everyday?
run from the release
that can cease
all the pain
...

This fatal pain
can not be maintained
within any soul
or any goul
...

Tick-tock, Tick-tock goes the clock
on the mantle, behind the lock
this lock is not ordinary
it is big, black and scary.
...

Forgive me
for i could see
beyond the beauty
in the city
...

19.

'show your face'
he yelled being maced
at the boy
he took to destroy
...

Its the color of blood
and this paper it bloods
with all my thoughts
that time has brought
...

The Best Poem Of Ernesto Torres

Those Bloodshot Eyes

My breathing was labored
and my saliva was blood flavored
coming from deep in my through
staying away from the battle being fought

I was hiding in a closet
In a torn apart building
in a kitchen next to a fuaset
then there was a explosion that left my ear ringing

It was a suffocating dark
and all that was heard was a bark
from those German dogs
that followed my scent through the fog

Every once in a while
i heard a scream, closer than a mile
then a gunshot
furthering there evil plot.

There is a terrible banging
and again the ringing
As the door flew open
my heart stopped that moment

I clung on to the inside of the closet door
like it was my life and more.
the room was full of voices and footsteps
everytime the dog came near, it made my heart leaped

I looked through a hole
and what a toll
it had on my soul
to see those bloodshot eyes

Now they know
were i hide
the plan to blow
this place ski-hi

I scurried back in terror
as sweat oozed from every pore
they shouted and gatherred
as all ready to slaughter

In hurry i reached for my gun
instead i pulled a pin
this situation got so much less fun
i knew this was the end

Bolting out of the closet
leaving the grenade there
tripping over a blanket
live was not fair

Bullets flew every which way
then, the grenade blew us away
off the building
as it went of destroying

Now there is a piece of glass through my chest
and i feel frozen at best
my throat filled with blood
as i remembered those blood shot eyes
