The universe is our canvas we bring it to life. So go ahead and paint it with your favourite shades. Let it Radiate with light and explode with vibrance. May it reflect the beauty within

May the waves of the ocean wash away my sorrow
May the wind blow away my worries
May the sunlight reignite my essence fill up my soul and uplift my spirit
May the sand anchor my feet and align my body
May the vibrations of the universe match the rhythm of my heartbeat
Forever and ever
And so it is

I thought I could save you from the your own demons
That lingered behind those empty eyes
But if I knew then what I know now
I should have ran and never looked back
As everything felt wrong right from the start
The love bomb
The mind games
The death stares
All those were red flags!
But I lied to myself
I lied to myself that me and you were destined
I lied to myself
That you were the chosen one, yang to my yin
I lied to myself
That you were my mirror and I was staring at my reflection
But you were just a mirage
Putting up a charade while you mimicked me
Took down my walls and entrance gain
I was so lost then but now I'm found
If you ask me I know better now
As for you, you'll never find what you're looking for
No amount of love on this earthplane can rescue your fallen soul back to light
For you need no saving, all you're after is your next source of energy, a chain of supply is what your ego craves.
Just know you can hide but never ran
Your Mr nice guy masks will soon fall off
Everything will lay bare and that void within will show

A warrioress needs a warrior
To match the rhythm of her wild heart and run wild with it
Ignite her flame and set fire to her soul, let her untamed spirit fly free

Together they transcend in love
Swirling like  a whirlpool galaxy
With a million stars shining
Exploding like supernova
Soaked up in stardust
Gracing the infinite space
Higher and higher
In divinity

Greetings from the otherside,
Hope this letter finds you well
You know it would have been easier if you were one of us.. Maybe we sit down and have a one on one
Perhaps you could also have a gist of what it feels like to be swept of your feet without prior notice, you know?
Anyway I'm guessing your quite busy on your mission, collecting hearts with a bow and an arrow
What a love spell you got going on..
Strangers become soulmates
Friends turn into lovers
Even rivaling kingdoms unite all in the name of love
But I bet you are aware it's not always a bed of roses
Actually you already know some of us have had it rough one our end
We've experienced the darkside of cupid, as I would call it, some prefer the term "alien love bite".. but boy oh boy It's one hell of a ride ey?
From misguided minds, bleeding hearts, to fallen souls and
Shattered spirits, I mean all in the name of love you say huh?
So tell me, if it's not you then who is really sitting at the two ends of the table playing chess with with our hearts or rather who is really pulling the strings?
Maybe just maybe, you should try and reconsider a revision of this contracts so that way we could all settle scores
And make this game of love a win-win
Just hoping next time while you gamble with our hearts and aim for the perfect shot
Pause for a second or two and consider whether it's a miss or a match
For love's sake
Thanks, until next time
Wishful thinking:)

Like a rose
Let your essence bloom with glory and splendour
Keep your insides soft and supple
Embrace your thorns, for they keep you guarded
Allow your petals to droop and wither whenever the seasons change
Let your leaves soak in the summer sunshine
And your roots drink the heavy rainfall.
Nourish your being and grow back again with much grace and vibrance

Cloudy skies
Heavy downpour
Cold breeze
Swaying trees
Misty window panes
Traffic lights
Hooting cars
Gushing gutters
Drenched trench coats
Soggy feet
Colourful umbrellas
Crowded shelters
Empty side walks

The city skips a few hearbeats
And comes to a stand still
Soon as the pounding rain stops
Everything returns to normalcy

But rainy days call for
Steaming cups
Slouchy sweaters
Fluffy blankets
Snuggles
Cuddles
Novels
Notebooks
Gramophone tunes in the background
Enjoying a little piece of heaven
While the day is washed off
Setting stage for a clean fresh start
