You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.
Henry Drummond


One day I woke up
Realizing that I would do
Anything for you

Mixing and mashing all different cultures together, that's what I live for. :)

And it's for mi corazon.

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou
When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn’t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out
The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay
If love produced a blossom/I’d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I’d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven
And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel

That's a really nice Haiku! Love it.

Cool! There's even an awesome backstory and everything! (But of course, all of your poems have awesome back stories.)

Thanks! The title is Spanish, I love the Spanish language! :) I got it from NPR- I was listening one day and they were talking about an album released in Mexico called Por Ti, I thought it was adorable and I really liked the music they showed.

I am afraid that I have not read anything of yours in a very long time. I miss that, so I thought I'd just check out your profile and see if you have anything new.

I  love the title, it's so sincere, beautiful.

So, how do you pronounce that, besides with lots of phlegm?  ;)  Heehee. 

Don't be offended.  I make fun of everything.  Heck,  what's with the English language?  There's supposed to be rules, but there seems to be one for every word!

It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

It's not, I take French.  My heart in French is mon coeur.

Thank you guys! It's always nice to hear from you. 

Mi corazon means my heart in spanish, ask Boosflash what it is in French, it might be the same! :)

~Kahlil Gibran

Quite simple, yet I like it.

If I had read it from anyone else, I wouldn't have noticed it; but since I know a little of the story of 'your corazon,' it makes it seem all the more sweet and sincere. Welcome to the beautiful territory of haikus, we've been waiting for you, Aderes. ;)
