¿Por qué?

    I
¿Por qué?
¿Por qué nosotros quieremos cosas diferentes?
¿Comó es possible que nosotros
pensamos diferentes y obtenemos los dos?

Porque nosotros quieremos cosas diferentes,
no es possible.
Pensamos diferentes y obtener los dos,
¿por qué yo hago este decisión?

No es possible
para yo continuar solo.
Porque yo hago este decision,
yo estoy flotando lejos.

Para yo continuar,
tenemos que hablar.
Yo estoy flotando lejos.
¿Dónde estamos iriendo?

Tenemos que hablar.
¿Comó es possible?
¿Dónde estamos iriendo?
¿Por qué?


    II
Estamos hablando.
Estamos dicidiendo.
¿Este idea es una problema?
No sé.
Ojalá que no sea una.
Vuelva a yo.


  III
Yo no puedo decidir.
Mi corazón rasga en dos.
Una pieza a la derecha.
Una pieza a la izquierda.
¿Cuál pieza que yo siga?
Lentamente, el corazón moriendo.
La sangre está se escurriendo.
El hombre ama nunca jamás.


    I
Why?
Why do we want different things?
How is it possible for us
to have different ideas and obtain both?

Because we want different things,
It is not possible.
We have different ideas and to obtain them both,
why do I have to make this decision?

It is not possible
For me to continue alone.
Because I make the decision,
I am drifting away.

For me to continue
we need to talk.
I am drifting away.
Where are we going?

We have to talk.
How is it possible?
Where are we going?
Why?


    II
We are talking.
We are discussing.
Is this idea a problem?
I don’t know.
I hope it isn’t.
Come back to me.


  III
I am not able to decide.
My heart is ripping in two.
One piece to the right.
One piece to the left.
Which piece do I follow?
Slowly, the heart is dying.
The blood is dripping.
The man loves no more.

Author notes

A lot of my thoughts tend to be in Spanish for some reason. I am trying to become better at writing in Spanish so I hope this helps me.

Suicide and self harm are horrible and all too common things that this world witnesses.

Please tell me what you think

    i love the way you convey confusion but in some places i think its a bit hard to follow.. really choppy. i think its great how you originally wrote it in spanish, even though i couldn't read all of it. i love the idea behind this piece. good job.

    lol- I like that you wrote the first one in Spanish... but to be honest I started trying to decipher the language and got to the third stanza okay before I realized huh...there's an English version at the bottom. Anyhoo- bout the poem. I like it, the thoughts are well related to confusion and frustration; however, I think that it's a bit too broken up. idk quite how to explain sorry- anyhoo- I like it in the long run like I mentioned prior to this babbling. Thank you for your entry.

      I am glad you like it. It is broken up because I think that displays a stream of consciousness which is what I was going for. Something like mulling over a problem in your head. Then in the second stanza I was trying to show an outside point of view. Like discussing the problem with a very close friend. And then circle back to the inner thoughts and show the pain of trying to decide in the last stanza
