everything was new

and then we,
cursed
were trapped -
not in hatred,
or spite

but indifference.

please wonder.

True beauty is not in contest
Not in conquest, striving to win
True beauty is being content
And not needing to be seen
not a competition, a composition

The day I put the words on paper
Vulnerability existed
and yet in that fragile moment,
a bliss beyond all words
Carried them far

This was me -
and i could see her there
without a mirror
This was me - and i could see
beyond the glass
Into her heart

And in that moment
only God
could see me clearer.

Around the Earth
she sings
a silent twirl

Parting curtains
hinged
with diamond stars

On endless stage
adorned with
grace

Spinning
silver threads  
into the sky

The moon
she pirouettes
upon the night


A ballerina

If you think
It's too hard

-   That's why it is -
Think about
what you think about

At the end of my rope
You're
still
*holding
me
Give me more faith
Jemimah Sep 2013
without Your presence
today is meaningless
because the only good in me
is You
