Diego Adrian Manriquez Poems

Feburary is my most depressing month,
I try to look forward but I'm afraid of where I'll go so I'll look down,
I get caught up in memories of us,
The good,
...

I said we'd get through,
I said we'd stay strong,
We never really believed it and I don't see why we would,
You'd always tell us things would get better but you never really changed,
...

I'm not here to write about how heartbroken I am,
I'm not here to write about how much I still love you,
I'm here to pour out my confessions because this is the only place were I feel I will be heard,
Even if no one is listening,
...

I don't think it's that easy for me to explain,
Explain all the things that go through my head,
Like where we're going or where we've been,
Wasting Sunday nights together,
...

Just sit down like before,
Stare out the window,
Lose myself in thoughts,
Thoughts that can't be spoken aloud,
...

Another dream that puts me closer to you,

So close that I can hear your heart beating with every breath you take,
...

You'll never know my true intentions,

I'll never forget these emotions,
...

The ocean carries my body away,

It carries me away from worry,
...

I've reached the end of the bottle once again,
With a handful of pictures,
Sitting outside of the house I grew up in,
I miss you so much it hurts to even think,
...

Take me away,
I can't handle this things and truth is I'm a afraid,
I won't be standing much longer with all this weighed down on my shoulders,
I feel like I am just boy,
...
