Amore Mio Poem by Carlos Gutierrez

Amore mio,

Close by or continents far,
In my mind you live and linger around.

Like a butterfly in a net,
I hold you delicately so your wings won't ever break.

Amore mio,
You are the leaves in my tree;
Without you I can't ever live,
And if fate's justice hammer will keep us apart,
So let it be,
Because amore mio,
It will only strengthen the spark sheltering in our hearts.

With you by my side,
Who foolish enough to be against me?

The magic of the stars,
The blue in the seas,
Seem to be gone without you
Like a meadow missing flowers or a pond with no weeds.

Amore mio,
Whisper in my ear,
Delight me with the knowledge that will ignite every light in my universe
And wash away,
Like footprints in the sand,
My every haunting fear.

Amore mio,
I love you, like I will never love another human being.
