American Experience+Imagination=Poetry from the soul / / IG: Elementair3
Watching the waves come in. Feeling the wind blow over my skin as the sun sits high in the sky and clouds roll by, just trying to stay connected. So many dimensions, so much going on. Just trying to remain calm and keep my eyes wide, to keep from being pulled under and drowned by the high tide of the current tensions and emotions. To be detached and not react, they'll say that you must not care. It's such a balancing act so I do my best to pick and choose my words with care. In the end it's all spiritual. Trapped in this temporary physical skin, still I must be aware because they never fail to forget in letting you know of which body you reside in. So it's a balance of speaking up and traveling in and out of worlds, all while trying to keep my feet planted so that I don't lose my mind. So I find solace in the wind that blows over my skin, and within these rays of sunshine.

Balance
I may seem like I'm lost but only because you're searching for something you'll never find. I may no longer be able to hear your voice but I can still feel your eyes. Life is love and I'm so in love with life. Still dancing with poetry because she never leaves long after those who were here are no longer in sight- Insight has shown me a whole new world like I'm on a carpet that flys and my head is the genie so I rub it twice to let out the light. Shining from the inside out and learning how to move, leaving you wondering about things you have no business wondering about and so it just leaves you even more confused. I'm a ravens feather in the wind, I'm a muses muse, catching fire whenever writing from the depths, redirecting my energy to things that make it easier to breathe, instead of feeling spent because I'm up to my chest in spiritual debt. Nothing to prove... Nothing to see even though you think I show it all, but you'll need a few oxygen tanks to dive deep enough to understand just how I breathe. Till then, with this pen I'll cause inception and use it to get through the layers of your dreams. To search out your true intentions and see if you really came to love or just to hurt me. Well this time around my shields much bigger and my sword is sharper too, so I'm blocking everything and anything that doesn't serve my highest good and cutting into the marrow to look for truth. I'll be invisible so the things you think you know, you really have no clue. Though you think you see, your eyes deceive as I write quietly I silently move.

Things are changing as they always do. 5G on the rise messing with people's moods till they get confused. Chips in the skin got 'em permanently plugged in, summer draws nigh but winter is coming soon. The wind speaks, The earth shakes even if you can't feel what time it is. Your guards low, creeping in the soul is dark energy from false enlightenment. All the yoga in the world won't save for when it's time to be stretched out, to unravel your secrets to see if you really bout what you've been talking bout. No fruits or greens can ever thoroughly clean you out. For the most high says it's not what goes in that defiles but what comes out the mouth. I caught this on the wind so I had to grab a pen and write it down, even though I know my heart ain't the tidiest, I'll still speak from it while I clean it out. I see it coming... people are running and it's even happening now, while some worship the creator in spirit and in truth, others admire creation more and still have their doubts. Just look at your hands and the spirals of your finger prints and how it's in the flowers and the stars. The universe isn't outside of you; the universe is what you are. Created from an unfathomable mind so divine and full of love, that he sacrificed his magnificent light so that sin would die and his spirit can live on through us. The prophets say we haven't got much time and I'm trying to straighten up, so that I may die just to live in his everlasting love.

Raven on the wind
Into the universe we place our trust. Closing our eyes, holding each others hands and falling backwards into us. Flowing through the milky way, unbothered and bathing in love... All of this happening so quickly just from one simple touch. A sacred act... An electric attack that crept up our spines. Bonded through water and air sealed you and I for all of time. A trust fall into the universe, we're flowing now... Using our minds more than our mouths. Getting in touch through telepathy, even now I know you're hearing me... I had no time for love, and you had no time for men. After one laid his hands on you and you said you'd never place your faith in any again. But the universe laughed cuz it had other plans and it's that exact energy that placed you right where I am. And here we are easily swimming through stars and oh how I wish I could slow it all down... A love story for the angels to marvel developed at the speed of light, so beautiful and so profound. I write into existence stories that'll last until the end of time. Speaking of someone and no one, causing confusion in the minds of those who find it hard to enter into mine. It's all about energy and I try vibrating high, so that I bring to life just what I write upon these lines. The co-creator of my own life, diving deep into my pool of imagination just to keep my world a little more colorful and bright. So I closed my eyes and wrote exactly what I seen inside. A love story about someone and no one, all at the same time. And what's left are crumpled up papers and rough drafts of deleted scenes...

Baby I'm still learning... Holding back on these emotions when I get mad Knowing it's best to think it over before I speak so I don't say some **** that'll hurt and make you feel sad Lets not lose sight of our love Pointing fingers like there ain't six pointing back at us Lets try and keep this between you and me cuz people can't criticize what they can't see But if we must express ourselves let it be creatively To inspire those who carry heavy loads and so that we're reminded to keep the peace Yeah let there be peace amongst lovers Through all storms we should be by each others sides Holding it down through the rain and thunder So let the softness of our voices keep the hearts tender and keep our minds at ease And although they'll be ups and downs may we always bring it back to common ground and do our best to keep the peace

Keep the peace
Fire inside like an uncontrollable flame Emotions like Kerosene The more I poured out it continues to rage Started to rise till you could see it in my eyes and it brought on an irreversible change Now look at me Covered in ashes, tongue blackened with soot all over my face I'm a wild fire when you push me A sensitive soul but I ain't no p***y If only you knew what you'd be getting into when you test me, maybe you'd tread a bit more softly Even so, I know I still have much to learn as I stare at bridges that didn't have to burn... Rummaging through ashes searching for anything left of any worth but its all just consequences in my hands But I'm a loving man whose waters reach depth that one could never perceive, and so I'm misunderstood... Just know I'm working on taming this flame inside If you don't believe me, I wish you would... Oh yeah, I'm cleaning up the inside See the flames burn out in my eyes and the smoke begin to clear IGNORance is ignoring the flames when knowing it needs tending to but it's getting hot for even me so there's something I've got to do So I quit fanning the flames and became the change by directing my energy to creative things The fire is still lit but look what I've created with it Words so powerful that they can rebuild a bridge because the past is the past but this is the only way I can get over it...

Taming the flames
Such beauty there is in new beginnings The cycle of light dying and rebirthing Finding much wisdom and strength through the sense of touch in a state of darkness The subconscious holds the keys of realization and I swim in its sea of connection Touching you while digging deeper to discover who I am An evolving soul in this vessel of a man I've traveled to far off lands without moving an inch Learned so much about the outer world from traveling more within From dying and rebirthing Building and destroying again and again...

Evolution of Soul
See the waves rush in to grasp a bottle in its hands; a letter written perfectly protected enclosed by glass Fire could not do what this bottle is hoped to do Sail aimlessly, never to reach the shores again of me or you Words that were never said have ran out of time and expired So they are just messages in a bottle lowering and rising with the tides Never again to reach the shores of you or I

Tides and Shorelines
Warm me in winter If you can remember who and where I am For we're just like Peter Longing for neverland Love may not come till summer but it doesn't hurt to sit and wonder if you'll return or fall in love with another I've got my head filled with you and I've got these fingers crossed too It's all superstitious but I will wait to see what it does Cuz if the mind creates our thoughts Then maybe I can resurrect the love we lost Till then there'll be no one in this bed where you have laid No ones hands will touch this skin Afraid that you'll feel it on your end and never come back this way again You are my soul So hard to let go I wondered how we ever went so long without each other before Cuz when I ment you I felt like I knew you'd always coming walking through that door The one in my heart that can never be closed again Until you return I'll be missing you my sweet love My dearest friend...

My Dearest friend (her thoughts)
When the silence gets to you Hold on just a little while longer, you'll get through Stillness is better than being anxious when we know we shouldn't move Place your mind in the darkness Close your eyes inside your room Breathe out and then breathe in to find a calmer you Sometimes a resting tongue is all we need, to our temples we must always find a way to retreat Away from the world that can become so busy We get lost in all the rush Return to the center and remember peace can be found in the stillness Oh, yes you will find your way in the darkness if you're ready and you're willing There's much to be heard There's so much to be settled within those emotions that can create a storm unfit for sailing, or calm the waters for your ship to go floating Upon the sea of your thoughts cast your net of introspection For it is only in times of stillness that we can find answers to our most difficult questions Be still...
