A Taste of Emptiness

July 5, 2017. Written by Romeo Della Valle. Posted in Poems ENGLISH

Idle within emptiness, Disappointment fills the air, A chilling wind of harshness, Sweeping seasons of despair!

Fingernails bitter purple, A tousle of shredded hair, Weakened limbs and fragile nerves And dreams strangled to disrepair!

How long ’till the sun comes out? Forever must still be there, Without the light all things fade, Darkness makes them disappear!

A burning torch within me: Faith, the everlasting flair Scorching both sense and reason, Too blind to show heaven is near!

PRISSONER OF WORDS

July 5, 2017. Written by Romeo Della Valle. Posted in Poems ENGLISH

(Dedicated to a poet jailed because his words and Art)

Born in ink and papel, I am the humble words That have described the world From the beginning to the end!

Through the passing of time, I have been clearly mistreated, Twisted, hidden or plagiarized To serve the special interests Of those evil spirits hiding Behind the cold shadow!

I have also inspired many That in moment of distress, Pain or suffocating agony Found in me a reason to smile!

I am the humble words Colorfully dressed in flesh And brought to life through The beats of sounds to reveal The secret of love and peace!

As flesh, I have been incarcerated By those with obscured purpose But I am totally free like the air That everybody in the world Without it can’t live or exist For I will always live in ink, Papel and in the hearts Of all of those who believe In the shining truth and me!

Like A Single Word

July 5, 2017. Written by Romeo Della Valle. Posted in Poems ENGLISH

Let no influence persuades me Against my precious wish, The alibi who exists Need not have a name!

I should never weigh Too heavily on my own name For if I were a single word, I might speak and die!

Yes, a single word that Would soon perishes Once it is spoken or Maybe it survives when It is transformed like A wish preserved!

My Colorful World

July 4, 2017. Written by Romeo Della Valle. Posted in Poems ENGLISH

Emerging from the shadow, I was welcomed into this Beautiful and colorful world Filled with sounds and words!

Surrounded by smiling faces, The light stroke my tender eyes And most likely everyone around For the first time heard me As an innocent baby crying!

I can just imagine the first time When I saw the rainbow, The clear sky blue reflected In the river, lake or immense sea!

I can’t recall the first time When I also saw the pure green From the dense forest and The red, brown and yellow leaves Of the beautiful autumn and When I noticed the different Skin colors of the human race!

What a surprise was for me When I saw the first butterfly In the colorful garden nearby Or taking off to the high sky, I can just imagine!

When I saw and touched The whiteness of the falling snow In the middle of a cold winter! Oh, how beautiful is the world!

AN AGELESS POET

July 4, 2017. Written by Romeo Della Valle. Posted in Poems ENGLISH

I left no word Of where I had gone Or where I was going Or what I was to become! Watching the time Of day carry me away Into infinity!

In constant motion, I plead for patience- But time, Ceases for no one! Least of all, My subsequent Will, Who kneels In humble submission To divine law!

The rhythms Of nature Are the instructors And the implements Of genius! Whom no one before Has told or discovered_ That in time- the World- Not you-is old!

Born in a Caribbean island named Quisqueya by the native Indians and renamed Santo Domingo or Hispaniola by the Spaniards and coming from Spanish and Italian parents and coming to America very young with a goal, mainly, to succeed in life and be happy. I have worked very hard and gone to school to better myself…Fully aware of who I am, finished school and still working very hard. I have gone out of my way to make other people happy, however, I haven’t be so lucky to find somebody to accept the way I am…. Just a human being-not perfect-but a caring human with feelings and love to share… .As a citizen of the world, there is not race, color, or religious beliefs that would stop me from searching for happiness…. I love and write for the sake of my soul…I freely express my feelings to this vast universe… Only the mighty God knows what I have been going through….and whenever is the time for me to depart forever…let it be, , there is only one life to live… CONTINUE READING
