her eyes glistened
with the light of
a thousand stars.

they told me
she was not enough.

her scars were painted
across her canvas called skin -
each one unique to itself.

they desperately
cried out for help.

her glossed lips smiled softly,
pulling her ****** features
into a jovial facade;
allowing a melodious
voice to fill the air

it said
"i'm okay, thank you for asking."

- v.m
she is incredible and doesn't deserve to feel like anything less. she is you. you are incredible. keep reminding yourself of this until you believe it.
i write my feelings
for i lack the courage to speak
coz darling my emotion
is vast as an ocean
and if telling you them
with my voice
trembles at the sight of you,
you'll drown

and i'll be left with the thought
of drowning with you
or left, rubbing my voice
against the wind

Like a kaleidoscope,
I see your reflected colours
Hues of greater wavelengths
Not just of reds and blues,
Or green and yellows
But a mixture of it all
A perfect blend of 'em all
Your words show of Your presence,
A presence that's covered in passion,
Your passion gives intensity...
It's this intensity that I crave...
So be my rainbow
A sign of better days
After the storm that was
Of the blacks and whites
Be my kaleidoscope...
And I your canvas,
Colour My world.

Close your eyes
and breath slowly
Feel your beating heart
and listen carefully

Be at ease
and relieve your mind
Be the person
and stop being blind

Listen to yourself
and be free from the chain
Let it go
and be free from the pain

It is all in you
you may not know
But all I can say is
find it, feel it, listen to it

Search in your self
the person you should be
Listen to yourself
not to the whisper of others

Come out from your shell
and be the person
your mind and heart seek for.

Poetry does not
toot her own horn.

She knows that's what
invites scorn.

It was for honour that
she was born.

Those who have it
she will adorn.

To write is to breathe.
Letting out the inner heart,
the inner mind,
the inner life.

Write, for it is good.
Don't wait to be understood.
Just write like nobody can stop you.
Write out your dreams,
your revelation.

Write new and fresh lines.
For there is a whole world in you
to let out.
And time is short.

To write is to breathe!
Don't hold anything in.
Be free.
Be alive.
