Romeo Della Valle Poems

It is not a pure coincidence
That with depraved indifference
Methodically you tried to destroy me
Now, as clearly you can see,
...

Too far pushed away,
For my love to reclaim yesterday,
I was free to believe,
To open petals to the sunshine!
...

If in pain there is also pleasure
It is because the two come together
Hand in hand, like all else...
Part of the duality of existence...
...

Traveling by day and by night
The shadow of a promise made
Daring not to move within sight
Behind and ahead of me, all the same...
...

When love becomes a game
You are bound to see
Winners and losers
But how painful would be
...

Cradled in security
A baby is comforted
By the rocking momentum
Of a tree swayed by a breeze...
...

Down the avenue I go-
Soulful and slow
To the drum of a Manhattan beat
In worn out jeans
...

You were enchanted
And took my love for granted...
You thought I was a kitten
But I turned out to be a lion!
...

Two trained legs
A pen or two
A subway fare
And a broken
...

When the Lord came for me,
The whole world changed,
I don't think it was me,
Except that I believed...
...
