A poet has many faces
But apparently
When I look into the mirror
I could no longer see
No other I
Nor the man in the mirror
But,
The mirror itself.

What a wonderful feeling
   When true love speak without
even a word.
       Enchants your world
To a beautiful obsession ,
A great feeling poking through your soul
Everything feels good
        Everything's beautiful
        An indescribable sensation
                     Oh my,
Just imagine
How good it’d feel to witness
   such love
    The Audacity of love to
       Paint you it’s beautiful world
          Without even a word shared
Imagine.

True love will soon come
When you clear up the clutter
In your mind and heart.

I’m like
all the mothers
I’m like
all the fathers
I’m  like
all the sisters
I’m like
all the brothers
I’m like
all the souls
And yet it seems like i’m stuck
in a dream or perhaps a nightmare of
For jews and for muslims
For  rich and for poor
For gay and for straight
For red and for blue
For black and for white
in this sleep
of catastrophe  
Where are we?
Where are our hearts?
These tears of sadness
rolling down my cheeks
it’s so insane to keep wondering
If  this is as good as it gets for us?
Who are you, who are we?
Where are we going from here ?
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones that we’re hurting
Are you and me.

But,
Every chance I get to express myself poetically I take. But the truth is my heart belongs to nature,where the bird’s my stereo, the ocean’s my mirror, the trees my home and where my heart kept bubble wrapping for my safe keeping. Therefore I’m not a big fan of social media,  and I’m sort of shy, startling isn’t it lol. Though it hurts at times , sometimes I silence my voice and I hide from the world often ..behind a wall of ink , in the back of a crowded page near the exit ,close to the end of every story so I can make my escape ..seems like I’m always in the shadow  of my mind, unless I’m obliged into the light whose melody from time to time ( in my French accent ;) ) entices me to come out from behind the wall,to bleed my songs of enlightenment for those who need it. Those who may not be able to sing beautifully as always in the moment of pain, sadness, sickness, darkness and to uplift those considered to be defenseless when all roads turns to black,  literally. Where I share little bits of pieces of my personality and spirit to put a smile on their faces. Where Everything is Art, everything is poetry starting with myself. Only time I know how to take flight , and be free!

She
refuses
To reside
Inside
anyone’s
Solace
Especially
her own
She’s a
rare rose
With
the thorns
Still attached
She walks
a fine line
Somewhere
Along the line
Between pain
And fine wine
She always
found the time
And
Courage
To shine

Some days
          I dream of
                   True love
But
                      Most days
                                 I dream of
                                             True dreams

Love will show you
Every inch of its colors
Harshfully and beautifully
It doesn’t have to shine bright
All the time
For you
To feel it,
For you
To see it,
For you
To find it,
There  is a dusk and a dawn
in all directions of the sky
Too often we wonder,
Where is love?
But offer no safe space
Within us
For it to rest its head
Too often,
We wonder where is love?
While love wonders,
Where are we ?
And why are we
Roaming outside of ourselves
in the search of it ?

Even in my solitude
My silence is a scream
This poetic mind of mine
Is like the sea.. i adore
At times wild.. I Feel too much
At times deep..  I Think too much
At times shallow.. I dream too loud
At times calm..          I Love too much
And at times with no directions.. I allow life to unfold
Blowing my own trumpet
And giving zero f**
About who's lurking or judging
The way the waves dances
On my tongue in the wind!!!

This is a powerful truth. I can honestly say that since meeting the woman in my life, she has inspired me to push my limits and scale the heights of my abilities.  She met me in the middle of what was one of the most trying seasons. She didn’t fix it for me, although she did lean in and help me by listening and proposing solutions. She put her arms around me and whispered in my ear that she believed in me. Her friendship and partnership have truly provided a covering for my heart and soul to heal and flourish. I’m grateful and lucky!!!

people ask me; have you seen angels
and my reply is always "YES" ...
I have seen Angels
in the shape of her Love


people ask me; have you seen Evil
As I slowly took a deep breath I reply "YES" ... I have seen Evil in the shape of people who make a lovable person feeling unlovable,
When in deed they deserve a deep and unrelenting love.

So yes, I’ve seen evil!


Speak love and leave her humble

Sheltered
    In her kiss
I unambiguously
shut
    My eyes
And sanction
       love
To commend
   My heart

Oh, the pressures to win her heart
Where, oh where, shall I begin
               As I was fallen like sheets of rain
She expressed that
        Like the blood running through her veins that,
She has a certain type
                   And she expressed that ,
I wouldn’t make a perfect match
         Turning my heavenly intention into hell
                      Just like a bouncer at the door
  She refused to let me in
              Minimizing devotion
                        And like an invisible man
She walked and see right through me
                   Like the leaves during the storm
She blew me away without gravitation
                   And like a muted sky
She never heard the sweet words I whispered
         But little did she know that
One day with a single rose
Stemmed with a kiss
            I would steal her heart
                   Like a thief on the cross
And hold onto it forevermore.

Today I’m
  Myself
Because life
  Chooses
      me
      To
    Be me

Never put your heart in the hands of anyone who treats it common.  They will never see the treasure you are!

Lady in my dream
Intriguing and delightful
You’re my dream come true
For sure

I laid here bare
In wonderment
In awe of your allure
Beautiful and captivating
Indeed, You’re

Even in my sleep
You bring a smile to my face

And
Suddenly
Against the grandeur
Of the calm sky

Slowly you turned
And gazed into my soul

I paused
And took a deep breath

For
Even in my sleep
Your presence was
More than enough
To take my breath away

Do
                                       Not
                                       Let
                                 Yesterday
                                       Use
                                       Up
                                       Too
                                      Much
                  ­                      Of
                                     Today
