ONE OF MY MORE RECENT POEMS
INDESRUCTABLE
I can't go on with my mind behind me. The only way forward is straight ahead. Forget those people who have hurt you they are nothing but sand in the hourglass, waiting to resurface when you shake things up. Pay no attention to the things that go bump in the night, stand you’re ground and prepare for the fight. Those people who said they love you but at a moments notice turn their back and join those against you then come back and smile in your face as if nothing happened just to do it all again. They are what you need not put your belief in. if you must place your trust in someone place it in yourself and god they will not forsake you. let the mystery of the future and the excitement of the present lay waist to a dreaded past not forgetting where you came from or who you are but relinquish the weights that keep you from your dreams. This is to all those people who have tried to hurt me. To all the girls who cheated and lied, to all the people who made promises and wasted my time, to all my “friends” who said they’d be there till the end come to think of it we are no longer friends, to my pops who became a father but still needs to become a man. To that breezy who left my brother (you don’t know what you had) to those guys who make those girls cry and I couldn’t do a thing because the girl loved them and I loved the girl and wished they would realize how much better off they would have been with me, my heart is indestructible. © 2008 Rogelio Romero
