... Read moreIn this exploration of September Love, we delve into the intricacies of self-control and emotional expression that resonate deeply with many women. Poetry has always been a powerful medium for conveying complex feelings and experiences. The lines from the OCR resonate with struggles that numerous women face in articulating their inner turmoil while managing external perceptions. The notion of lowering one's voice, already familiar to countless women, emphasizes the societal pressures that often dictate how one should communicate. In the realm of poetry, this vulnerability becomes a strength, allowing for a visceral connection with readers who find comfort in shared experiences. Moreover, the importance of time – learning to bide your time – emerges as a recurring theme in the journey of womanhood, highlighting patience in personal growth and expression. As part of the #poetry community, engaging with other voices enhances our understanding of these themes, providing a support system for those navigating similar challenges. Join us in celebrating poetry as a reflection of life’s emotions and experiences.

Fragmento de mi poema Favorito: Ella se reía de todo y por dentro estaba hecha pedazos. Sé que llora al llegar a su recámara, pero al otro día, al salir volverá a reír y fingir que el día le sabe a cereza. Ella es apariencia y no hablo de vanidad, se maquilla una sonrisa y el alma rota la trae
