Nina gáspari Poems

You
Whose face I have easily yet painfully erased
You
Whose voice I no longer hear on the other end of the phone
...

I know
You´ve got a secret
For how long are you planning on keeping it?
Everytime you open up you mouth
...

And you said
You´d wait for me
So I turned and walked away
Confident and free
...

Have u ever loved something so much, it became a part of you?
You felt your knees get real weak, as your legs kept on trembling, and all those butterflies in ur stomach…
You tried to keep it together, and be a strong, focused person, but all it took was the eyes encounter, and then..before you knew your voice was sweeter, you had tender ways, and your cheeks..they hurt cause that smile just wouldn´t fade away.It insisted on being there.
You would wait all day long, days after days, hours after hours, counting down the minutes, so you could be with that person. That was your last thought before falling asleep, and your very first one every morning.
...

And now that i´m gone
You keep calling me on my phone
Trying to make me
Have a change of heart
...

Red ribbons fly across the blue sky
White clouds draw your face,
Trying to show me where you are
The night falls,
...

I closed my eyes
Opened my crying heart
And made a wish upon the stars
I wished so hard, it hurt inside
...

Day after day
I can still remember my silent pray
Nights in and loud nights out
I can still remember what we were talking about
...

The room´s crowded
And everybody´s talking
But I can´t focus on the words they say
Now´s the perfect time for me to runaway
...

Three years ago
It was springtime
When we first met
How could I ever forget?
