“Were one be ready to move on, then the other will cling. Were both be ready to move on, then nothing ever occurred. Were neither be ready to move on, then this romance is true. Only within the third example, is a relationship ever something of truth.” – Modern Romanticism
Philosophy – “To Debunk the Hook-Up Culture” – 1/28/2021
“The one expectation one should have for a relationship, is in what makes a human. To expect the average characteristics of a human, is to expect an error, and to have acceptance for that error in consideration for yourself. To ‘hook-up’ with whatever you expect, sets the trap to what you did not expect, and […]

To my Love…
There is nothing so decimating as the heart giving up. It is why I won’t. You are everything. My light would diminish, if I stopped loving you. It is a light that cannot vanish. My love! My light! My world. You are everything. My eyes fill with tears at the thought of smelling your hair, […]
The Tena Poems – Truest Love – “Opened Velvet Mouth” – Romance – 9/13/2019
The world once breathed,An amorous note.A void now breathes,A place where branches spiral downwards,To one velvet opened mouth. Lay your feet across my palms,And swear to me, in truth,To face the world with that same openness. You see, I once had nothingFor myself.You are my truest accomplishment,On my deserted little island,Of no sun. And now, […]
Poem – “Beloved, Unclothe Yourself” – 7/1/2019
I bathe myself in your splendor,And stoop myself under the light of your smile,I savor the breath that comes off as sweet,And drink deeply from all victims of mine. I am, and will always be, my own enemy.I am tremendous, in how I own myself,But I am a pitiful beast, with no mark.I place myself […]
Poem – “I Cast Thee in Marble” – Romance
With fewest steps to climb,In an amorous avalanche of emotion,Wandering upwards, to where a faceGlistens, and has been frozen.I, with marble, in hand,Smear its molten material upon thee,And make thee a face of beauty and frailty,Because, I have come from the realm of love. Eyes gilded as sapphires,And lips swiped upon, with rubyPaint; and listless, […]

Bide thy time,For the most worrisome.For I am here to consoleAnd triumphOver thy descending tears,And over thy frozen heart.

I am here,To bide thy time,For the most worrisomeOf travails.You hold a face […]
Poem – “We’ll Not Die with our Love Apart” – Romance
Should the world end, with us not unified,We’ll have the ocean to cross, and then we’ll die.You have beauty that marvels the angels.Of cheeks that blossom the rosiest pink,And such beauty creates strengthIn my darkened heart. I will love with a powerful love,End all demons that torment you into woe,You have arms that claw at […]
Poem – “Your Swollen, Heavy Eyes” – Romance
The trembling that thou exposes,In flesh that remains not calm,An empire of rubble lays at your feet,A certain sickness dwells in your heart. You have found beauty in places of loathing,You have wept before mirrors that showed oceans,You have laid brick where the rich dwell,You have made flame upon lands not scorched. And eyes once […]
Dialogue – “The Attempted Downfall of the Individual Perspective” – 6/5/2019
Q: As you term it, the “individual perspective” has become the beginning of the selfishness to a world with only a focus on the self, and a human’s inevitable yearning for companionship? A: The “focus on the self” stems always from a view around oneself that is full of the rottenness of humanity. One believes […]
Poem – “Her Skin Among the Embers” – Romantic
Your rarity, on thine loving lips, Lay kisses, upon where I sit, Go crawl in misery, on death ships, Bask in embers, of fires lit. I would watch, those hands, cover tears, To imitate, a sleeping body, You could face, the dawn as night, Sink under trauma, of the years, But searing embers, raise the […]
