Ode to my boyfriend

Mi Sol, Oh how I miss

Your mysterious brown eyes

Like a dark starless night.

I love how you rub your scruffy beard

Upon my soft, gentle cheek.

Mi Sol, I wonder

When I will see your fluffy self.

My heartbeats like a racecar in its final lap

As I hear your melodic voice

Through an electronic robot

That makes distance irrelevant.

Mi Sol, me duele no

estar en tu lado.

The distance between us

Is like knives being jabbed

Into my back.

As fear tiptoes

Into my mind like when I’m  in a

Horror movie

Unaware of what's happening next.

As my heart yearns to be in

Your warm loving arms that make me feel

As if I reached paradise.
