Mark Ruiz Poems

Pains in mine head stumble my words
And yet the deadly silence soothes me.
Lay back and I fall deep,
Stand still and I fall slowly.
...

Suddenly I find myself freezing here.
Chilled, alone, somehow keeping myself warm.
Enigmatically it pours on me,
Unchangingly the rain pours all around.
...

A cool breeze runs past me riding downtown.
A mondaine sunlight shimmers, glistening.
Housings fly by me, a blur to my eyes.
Homely aroma, tranquilizing sights.
...

At night I wonder,
Is my love sleeping sweetly?
Is she missing me?
She sleeps so sweetly!
...

On that longing night we spent,
Our hearts did play one strange minuet.
A game of love and hate, a song of laughter and sorrow.
In my arms you spent so sweetly,
...

Blow out the candles love and hold me close,
Your kiss it keeps me locked up tight,
Taken quick, like the power of the tides.
Your eyes the pierce right through me;
...

Suddenly I freeze, pathetic, and frozen.
Still I feel it slither down my skin.
Leaving a cool open feel.
Over the phone, I heard the call.
...

Find me soon,
Before I go
Before I forget what flashed before my eyes,
Tell me of the flashing lights,
...

Feel her on your fingertips,
As she lingers, cold and dry.
Taste her in your mouth,
As she dances, dances the dance of death.
...

If you're not here,
The Sun won't shine.
The Moon won't glow,
And the Rain won't pour.
...
