Ernesto Torres Poems

My breathing was labored
and my saliva was blood flavored
coming from deep in my through
staying away from the battle being fought
...

I lay on a building
so peaceful
so quite
...

There is many says
of what happens before you part ways
with your body
to somewhere holy
...

Darkness floats into my soul
for everything i know is a lie
there is no point just to die
i was a fool
...

Grasping my chest in terror
hoping to wake from this horror
of this nightmare
in which i stare
...

I am eternally falling
into a hopeless abyss
full of horrid bliss
for i am no longer hoping
...

There is never enough time
especially for me
it should be a crime,
but that is not what i see
...

Hope is a lucid dream
something that seems
so close touch,
but it burns so much
...

I feel so lost
so ignored
and at what cost?
to have all my emotions stored
...

My eyes grow heavy
from all that heavies
my tired soul
from the world making me a fool
...
