The suffering that made me my father


And There I was with my mother

with the stumbled soul

and already fallen as hard wood and perforated

The suffering made me my father in life

so fierce the anger of my being to have hope to continue living

even when in rain Always there

Symbolized this rain of tears my father never knew

what his son drowned Until tiredness to see rain his pride and neglect

without dropping a look of comprehension

so many that his son threw

When I wanted to mourn I could not help it

I was not allowed

And it was a privilege that

by many hills of suffering that I crossed

My soul that one so warrior so conformist

immaculate of heart and although always alone

but always ahead and always with love.

Hello my name is Jonatan Vega as you all see I love poetry.My favorite languages are Spanish,French,English and some Italian,but my first language is Spanish.I live in US but I am from México.I am a college student at American River college in Sacramento,CA.I consider myself as very talented.I am very confident.I am kinda quiet,but when you get to know me I am amazing.I consider defining what the soul feels is art:poetry.I am a painful poet most of the time,but I could write about everything when I put that objective in my mind.I love love for what it is.i am a amazing person if you get to talk to me Some of My work focuses on what I see as the repression of women by men. This often takes the form of personal insults directed at men in general Love,Heartbreak.life changed my writing by helping me to lose my former models, and reach a more dramatic lyricism, my style now showed more realism than before.Recurring themes in my work include love,hearbreak,humanism, nature, alienation,loss, love, pain, growth, hope,death, family, sorrow, women’s issues, and violence.Although my portrayal of men is ironic and critical,I felt a strong need for love, and Im able to express the tension and passion these ambivalent feelings in poetry both simple and deeply sensual, expressing an original note in erotic poetry in a sensitive manner. .
