I miss you I miss me Like a furnace I was fed with coal and fuel but I was quite … Spitting out fire sparks every now and then Hurting no one but myself The heat pushed you away … Pushed everyone away Except for those who accidentally caught fire! In an attempt to cool down I blew steam into my soul Melting down every good memory … I thought by burning them down I would have nothing to lose … no one to mistrust… no one to “mislove”… I thought the calm ashes would finally bring me peace … Now here I am standing -buried in the suffocating ashes- waiting for a phoenix to emerge … I can see no phoenixes leaving this furnace …

To all those I lost in the fire
Brown pages Cataract Lenses Polaroids and a smile fading in my words written with a pencil on Brown pages

If you just wait till I get to the end of my sentence you will hear The rolling ,rumbling ,howling waves come to a tickling calmness... kissing my anxiety’s toes ...

Irritating calmness
Its brightness compels me to peek through the truth To observe the gray To listen to stories told by painted lines And to find my way through channels dug by grief

How can you ever hug someone who’s too broken to fit themselves into your arms How can you collect their pieces if every time you touch them you bleed ...

Not a poem ...
I want the world to notice the spark of hope residing in my eyes I want to help all people I want to share my experience with the entire world I want to shout out loud my dreams I want to spend my life learning, teaching, studying, reading, writing, watching ... I want to make a difference in the lives of all those I meet ... even the evil ones! I want to meet their insecurities with my high self esteem ,Their cruelty with the loads of love hidden in my huge heart and their hurtful plans with forgiving prayers ... I want to be me again ...

Not a Poem but a list of wants
My age is nothing but 26 years of pseudo experience buried deep into my unexplainably sad eyes ...

He left Because when he looks in my eyes he sees sheer excitement peaking through dark shades of sorrow Because when he listens to my voice he hears thunder Because when he looks at my body he is struck by the radiating strength that forces tears out of his eyes My smile sends paralyzing pulses down his spine He left Because he gets dizzy when his pupils are obliged to follow my hand gestures When I unfold my shoulders, raise my chin and say „I love you“ He left Because it’s too much ... Because it‘s too strong ... Because I’m too strong ...

Too strong
Arranged meetings Arranged greetings Arranged smiles and well designed spoken lines ... They always give me orders: “Now sit ... speak ... Introduce your self ... No, wait the girl doesn’t speak ... just listen ... Listen till your temper starts to peak ... Be nice, Be kind ... Ignore his immature idiotic mind ... “ So I sit and I listen and I ignore ... but I speak! And when I speak ... the freak ... disappears!
