Sylvia Alva Poems

None of us ask to be born
Why were we brought
Into this world
A world full of hate
...

When I see your face
It takes me to a dif erent place
Calmness takes a hold of me
Like a blanket that cannot be seen
...

Daddy's little girl
I remember back when I was her
It's been a while I'd like to know
What happened between us
...

Never had my life been more complex,
Reality had simply left. I was all alone I couldn't help but wonder if I left this life was there something for me out there?
Although I lived in pain and my heart was broken everyday I can't
complain, without my past my life just wouldn't be the same. I'm glad we went our separate ways, what we once were will be no more. I used to think you were the one, the man that I was dreaming of. Funny how that dream is now just a drifted memory. I gave my all I poured my heart out and for what? You broke my heart and made me cry and to top it off you laughed when we said goodbye but jokes on you, I opened up my eyes in time to realize that you were not my paradise you were just a stepping stone along the way kind of like those bumps on the road I couldn't sway. It took a while for me to see that there was more just up the road.
...

Everything about you tells me who you really are, a man who can sometimes be loud while being silent all in one
you tell me that you love me you say I am the one
I don't understand why it got out of hand
How did we allow for things to come this far
...

YOUNG AND INNOCENT WE DREAM BIG
WE HOPE TO BE SO MANY THINGS
OUR MOST COMMON DREAM
IS TO BE RICH
