Alright, well, this is my first attempt at writing a poem in Spanish.  Please don't laugh too hard.  I'll post the translation soon, but I want to see if any of you can figure it out, I know you can Jose.  I know it's a short one, especially for me, but like I said, it's my first attempt at a Spanish one.  Oh yeah, Jose, I was wondering if you could possibly help me out on this poem.  If you want to, feel free to add to it or to give me any suggestions, and please please correct my grammer, I can't seem to get it right.  Thanks so much!
Bel

Volaré
lejos de aquí
a través el mar
Volaré
apartando de mis problemas
apartando de mis miedos
Volaré
pronto,
sino no pronto bastanta

Well I know what it means and frankly its nice. Soooooooo i liked how you wrote it cuz its basically your escape from all your probs and fears. Does the sea symbolize anything? Anyway, si quieres, mandame un e-mail okis?
By the way, soy de Puerto rico. Boricua hasta el fin BABY!!!! Chekiamos


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Thanks for replying!  I'll post the translation soon I promise!  But I'm really busy right now so I'm gonna hafta cut this one short.  I'm glad you like it!  As far as the sea goes, I live by the ocean, and the country I want to go to, or live in is across the ocean/sea.  So I guess it's kinda symbolic, okay well I gotta run, so I'll say more later, thanks again!  Hasta Luego

The translation I promised:
I will fly
Far from here
Across the sea
I will fly
Diverging from my problems
Diverging from my fears
I will fly
Soon
But not soon enough

Bel~ I know how hard it is to translate poetry, and how painful it is to see what is lost in the translation, I feel your pain. Geat translation though.
