You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep my faith will stand
And I will call upon Your Name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine

badtaste
one little spider fell on my leg
I smacked him off then I said
"Did you nibble?
Did you bite?"
he said no
just kissed you goodnight
:)
I made this poem for my little cousin

Eloisa
And she dances to the gorgeous melodies of the wind.
Echoing strength  in her new found wings.
She gathers grace after an almost endless stupor.
With a courageous heart, she grows her pretty wings in darkness.
And as she enjoys her freedom in the air,
she scatters glitters to every flower.
A wonderful flight in cheers.
A celebration of hope and change.
A meaningful metamorphosis.
A colorful blossom that beautifully swirls.
Seeking love, bringing life.
A sweet journey to remember.
A brief yet lovely moment to soar.

Sweet eyes aglow
So kindly she smiles
My heart's been ridden
A million miles

In unison with time
The dust of day descends
Somewhere inside
We could all use a friend

In shadows of thought
Our psyche embraces
In the pulse of a smile
A glimpse of true faces

One last smile
Of pleasant farewell
So subtle the mind
As the heart is fulfilled...

A deeper look

I think
Love is the deepest core of who we are
The more I go on this deep deep journey
Of healing
Of sitting with just myself and my pain
And instead of hating it or wanting to wish it away
I try even for a few minutes a day
To ask it to talk to me
To tell me why it hurts
To feel into it ,
I see the deep dissociation
I have of longing
To be anything else but me
Is an escape mode
I see the depression
As trapped pain ,
I think I am learning to understand
To shift the way I view things
And the world
That when we come into our bodies
Our selves more
We learn we carry truth
We learn we are always connected
We learn that most things can be healed
And helped
If we give it time and love
I've realized that for so long
I was so Uncomftarble
In who I was
That I always wanted to change myself
Now makeup isn't wrong
But I think everything is persepctive
We give it
If we wear it because it's fun that's amazing
If we wear it to hide out true selves
And because of self hatred
Than for me it's something to look at
With love,
I feel so often
We like to throw labels at things
Without understanding
That a whole person is a whole world,
And that to be human is to be it all
And to be messy.
I wish women were granted more of this chance ,
Maybe I can show others
That you can be a woman
And be human
And that we don't need to be or look perfect
We can just be who we are
Human first.
To be wed ceremonies
Traditionally brisk time
Wintery- divine sacred
rituals
She elevates every success to the
          Sublime
Inner power bells of chime

Sometimes resistance
Need more patience


Internal flame Solstice
Too many humans come
with a price looking into
envision unto whatever will-do
Internal flame nowhere to be tamed
Who is to blame no red carpet
Why do they call it fame?

Winter Solstice chilled wine
   Shared/unpaired/homebound
      On- our- own- time
Christmas time prayer of hope
Feeling land-locked on tight rope
All disguises internal flame bruises
Masquerade party

On a  deserted Island all booked
But where are the people shell- shocked

Dreams are dangerous internal fire
Sleepwalked no life desired
Some people have it all well- stocked
In the apartment minds go deadlocked
Looking out of a window if we can only
see the same beautiful sky
So many endangered species
no
        wings  
                      to- fly

Looking at the bottom
the big family dish
My only wish
Seeing our loved ones
In a starfish
Internal flame its not a game and longer days or shorter we need to be stronger  in set Solstice stay happy look up at the stars
