Melissa Andrea Rivero Wong Poems

In the black of the midnight
Holding reality inside
flying so high without any spark
prosperity will send her back
...

I was eight years old
When I first participated in a chess competition
My heart was shaking like blender with ice in
The game scared me like cat and mouse
...

I hide behind the wall
I want to escape
But I’m stuck in this pain
Take me, fly away
...

What can I do If you are far away?
What can I do If my heart still beating because of you?
What can I do If I always hurt you so badly?
What can I do If I’m so difficult to understand?
...

Parking on September 1921
Waiting from his love
That it won't be able to come back
Losing his hopes
...

I can't tell you why she feels that way,
I just watch her make the same mistakes again.
What's wrong with her life now?
Too many nightmares and blood around her eyes
...

Darkness is our secrets in silence.
Secrets that comes from our sins,
Secrets that all humans have,
Sooner or later we’ll pay for our mistakes.
...

I, TOO, SING AMERICA.

I know it’s been whispered before
But not in my own word
...

Teenagers having all in only one hand
And crossing so far to the edge
They think life is simple at this moment
And wishes will come true as soon as they ask
...

The day was cloudly
The avenue was screaming with noise of the cars
Our fellows were walking fast
There were many stores and houses
...
