5 New Short Poems by Teresita Blanco

Eyes

by Teresita Blanco

My woe knows no beginning,

It just seems eternal.

This scorn haunts me.

Day and Night!

I still see

Those vengeful eyes…

The water I drink

Has become bitter.

I hear this voice

That calls me killer.

My morals are dead.

I had no choice,

Avert those cruel eyes.

They pierce me like daggers. 

Authority 

by Teresita Blanco

Your voice is just,

An echo of mine.

Your sight cannot

Reach beyond my horizon.

I know your thoughts;

They are the same as mine.

Just obey, just obey…

Dance, puppet, dance .

You’re my hand,

You’re my blood,

My breath, my life.

Beyond these waters

There is nothing, but I.

Silence these horrors,

They are nothing, but lies.

Disobey, Disobey, Disobey

And you will learn, learn!

Crush this germ!

Crush this germ!

You will not survive!

This free will

Will bring you ill.

Let me heal you,

Let me kill you.

You will not survive,

Disobey, Disobey

And you’ll… die!

Nostalgia 
by Teresita Blanco

I have been dreaming of home.

There so much clarity.

I see those green walls,

That grassy carpet.

So, so clear, swallowing me up.

Such dreamy days

Passed with many joys.

How far away they seem.

 My hands begin to tremble.

As I raise this bitter cup.

Oh, how far away those days seem to me!!

 

My Ambition 
by Teresita Blanco

Happy is the man

Without ambition,

The one with no conviction.

To gaze only

At things at arms length…

Oh, the joys, joy!

And woe to those

Who choose

This cross I carry.

I cannot bear it,

If only I could

Discard this burden. 

Alone
by Teresita Blanco

The silence told

Of a strange face,

Of a strange place.

Where all was one,

Where there was none.

It’s in this void

Where there’s no day,

Where there’s no pain.

I found day,

I found pain.

My heart is cold,

No one to hold me, no more.
