bella cortez

 

Afraid of our own shadows


Suffocated by words we swallow


Despite the pain

we feel inside


We all have things we hide


We cannot wash away 


our sins and lies


We cannot hide the tears we cry


We hear loud voices in our heads 


that keep us going insane


and the more i scream out 
for your name

The more pain i seem to get


I keep going in circles 
and nothing has changed


So please, 


Save me from this pain


Save me..

from calling out your name.

    El Grito de tu Nombre ! Hola Bella ~ thanks for a very powerful poem about the La Fuerte de un Nombre ! The slim shape of the poem and it's rhyme and rhythm give it great force. The subject YOUR NAME is also powerful. In love making we scream out our lover's name in ecstasy ~ when we split we scream it out in agony because it is etched on our heart. I am praying for your release (from His Name) but be warned I still cry out the names of Ladies I loved and lost years ago. Yours BRIAN
