New World

New World

A Poem by Leandro Mendez

Two worlds collide,
a third one
comes out.

The door of Silence
vanishes in the light
of our eyes.

Has peace arrived?

I still hear
the bombs in
the background.

Conflicted minds,
conflict the heart.

We are here,
lives ready to thrive.

And with opened arms
I await my freedom
or my end.

Very nice, thought provoking. Very nice style and wording

Your first stanza actually made me think of birth, Dare alla Luce= to give to the light. As I read further into the conflict what would await you freedom or the end. Either way I saw a rebirth in it nascence.

Nice Dear
A powerful One.
I hope one day all should enjoy the freedom but not through wars but through peace and love.
Nice job :)

thank you!! we can only hope for the moment
really cool message automatically reminds me of a friend who is a walking contradiction. "and with opened arms I await my freedom or my end" really struck me. Great write!

Good flowing poem. There are few among us who can truly write free verse.
