Alex Perez Poems

I remember my first love that I had back then,
She was everything to me; she was my best friend.
Every time that we made love, I fell right into her embrace, I’m pretty sure I’d do anything to see her face to face.
But she’s not here because I let her get away,
...

I hear a voice within myself; speaking directly through the heart that beats inside me,

It must be the continuous struggle that my bad choices I made that pushes away the pride I see.
...

All my life… All my fears…
I close my eyes… I shed two tears…
I pray for my life and for my freedom,
I reach towards God, for I know I need him.
...

No fear, no tears… no blood, no glory… no struggle, no story.
So what would the outlook of your life be if you didn't learn from the negative?
Do you think that you'll eventually grasp expression and use it as a sedative?
If you were to put tragic events in your life together in chronological order; could you put a border in the areas where you learned something positive you can use,
...

As time goes on… I sit back and watch the world around me move slowly,
Here I am observing my surroundings; occasionally texting a few people that know me.
It’s late in the day and things seem as ordinary as ever,
So here I am sitting down… trying to figure out if I can come up with something clever.
...

I see you… I feel for you… my conscience convinced me to recognize the real you.
...

Ever since I stepped out the pen,
I nose dived back in that reality again.
So it’s easy to see why I relax the mind with paper and pen,
I guess it’s the therapeutic strokes I make on these empty pages as I exhale the stress in the wind.
...

Only time will reveal what will happen to me if I keep myself in the same mind frame,
mentally off the chart with the art because I'm so smart in my brain.
It's real pain that I show,
it's real skill when I glow,
...

This is just a little wild glimpse; unsubtle and intense,

created out the mind; so open your eyes and don't squint.
...

With love and hate and no fate for my dreams to lead the way I hope for peace of mind and memories of a better time like when I was little cause life is like a riddle that’s to hard for me to understand I’m reaching out for Gods hand; please catch me, snatch me from out the air cause I’m falling all the while calling out for you… 'God Hear My Voice'.
So deep into a visual fixation of a nightmare, I look unto you towards the sky, I cry and before I die; please release me from my own demons who tear apart my soul and torment me furthermore prevent me from doing right; I lose sight of what I love; I need help from above… “God Hear My Voice”.
My future doesn’t look clear cause I fear for my present-I’m just a peasant who’s alone in the dark with hurt in my heart so far apart from you with no clue on how to connect; except through this choice, I speak… “God Hear My Voice”
Your presence still lingers from my head to the tip of my fingers, I write, you read, I speak, you listen but I’m missing the WORD of which that is yours; please open the doors and let me in, take me from this life of sin… “God Hear My Voice”.
