The arch of my life

The arch of my life

would not be the same
without you in it.
That's why these words
are not just for you.
They are if you want,
somewhat selfish.
I like to think that
even in silence,
and at a distance,
you're always there.
It is important that you know
I feel you closer
then what you really are,
and that I celebrate you.
I sense the kisses and hugs
from one of your homeland,
here in the Caribbean
of my heart, that you
enlightened and illume.
