Fluid of the mind
Falling silently
Like salty tiny rivers
over the cheeks.
Little cracks of the heart
Aching…
when listening to that song,
Inhaling the fragrance of night’s Jasmine.

Remembering you.

Many have lost loved ones this year.
Sometimes this month is filled with memories and pain.
fill the world with kindness take the hate away
make each tomorrow be a better day
give a little kindess when ever theres a need
give some help to others be a friend indeed

lend a helping hand show people that you care
if your ever needed you are always there
kindness it is free for you to give away
there inside your heart your kindness it will stay

Make no mistake...
I am a
Warrior in this garden... and while I Walk in the light...
I ain't afraid of the dark
My soul is in order
Thus, I fight
...I fight
we must keep our souls in order. walk in the light when possible... but not be afraid of the dark. Because it's getting ready to get real. (Title from Buddhist parable)

Tonight I ask God
Why?
What makes me less
Worthy of carrying a
Child
Than parents that
Never wanted
Their kids?
I,
A woman clean of
Smoke and drink and scandal,
Must walk through
Hell
To get what I want,
Whilst others
Traumatize their offspring
With their chaos.
I see the mirror image
Of what I desire
Almost every day.
Yet,
Those that have it,
Have not gone through
What I, God,
Have gone through.
You know this better
Than anyone.
Yes,
I know
I'm not
Perfect.
But what about me
Yields my ability
To create life?
To create it for you, God
Why
Must I feel
This broken?

All I can do is trust You
Struggling with infertility is hard.

All it took to shatter dreams',
was a compromise made to myself,
with only pure intentions and love,
but not a soul to hear them out.

Flowing tears, shed over months,
didn't take the grief along with it,
all the shame, guilt and regrets,
needed my life as the price to pay.
Snow fell silently from the sky,  
Blanketing all, piercing through the dark.  
But it didn’t see our tears—oh why,  
It fell quietly, fading like a spark.  

Snow came down, indifferent, still,  
And an angel descended from the sphere.  
Bringing love with a soft, gentle thrill,  
It landed on palms, like snow—then disappeared.  

It melted away, leaving only a trace,  
Love, warmed by the breath of despair.  
Waking, you screamed, reaching to embrace,  
But snow buried love in the cold, empty air.
This poem was born from the moment I saw how love and snow mirrored each other beneath the soft glow of streetlights.
