Falling back to the blank slate
dark night of the soul rising
Supersonic winds are whirling
Megastorms with shattering glass flying
Ooh I feel the acid rain pouring
I see the dust devils dancing
hurricane thunder's wrecking in

Wild Neptune tides are rising
Back and forth rising
Crushing drowning and burning
Neptune tides
Neptune tides

This is a tidal war
It's an etheric war in the pathless land
A battle of the titans
Loosing to the ******* hole
The open walls are closing in
But I see the oasis on the horizon
Beconing for my unbegotten soul
My spirit rises with rage
I slay the beasts and chain the demons
Take back my wings of freedom
And set my spirit free

I have gone through the worst dark night of the soul. This words only paint the picture.
Glad to be back on track

The ocean gives you love, peace and freedom all at once.
Sonia Ettyang Sep 2018
In the dense of the forest
I feel your mighty presence
In the whistle of the wind
I hear your voice
I see your beckon hidden in the shaking of the leaves
Your energy is present in the sun
and radiates through the horizon
Mountains and valleys spell out your mystery
Ocean and the sea live to tell your might
Open our eyes and see Gods presence curved in nature
Extraordinary beauty that no words can describe
God reigns in your midst
God reigns within your essence
God is all there is and all that is not

I see Paradise in your eyes
Where we die together and live forever
Sonia Ettyang Feb 2019
Back and forth it goes

Bruising hearts
Yearning souls
Misguided spirits
Forever in a quest
To realign with the infinite
But eyes wide shut
Minds on snooze
Bodies on cruise

Tik tok
Tik tok
The pendulum sways
  everytime and again

"How did it get so late so soon?"

Sonia Ettyang Dec 2018
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

Lover of rain

Sunbeams crack through the tall trees
Birds chirping along the window seals
Wind chimes tunes fills the quiet room
Nag champa wafts in the air

Mat laid flat
Squats and stretches
Eyes closed
In-hale
Ex-hale
Mind in the body
Heavenly flow

Frequency modulated
Easeness
Awareness
Serenity
Bliss
Peace
Silence
Power

Plant a seed of hope in your  heart
Hope to make it through the night
When thoughts of fear and sorrow
Capture your mind and steal your peace
Be like a good farmer with faith
Knowing that the dry days will pass
And the soil will be watered
Once more you'll make a harvest
And your baskets shall over flow
With joy and laughter

Questers of truth
With mystical souls and mystery minds
Once in awhile need a rewind
Slowdown the pace
And seek for places and spaces that
reignite the spirit and water the soul
Seeking for places and spaces that speak peace and fill the mind with ease
Seek places and spaces that bring uttermost connection
A home away from home
A haven

In the land of filtered posts beautiful lies fake smiles and instant likes
Lies souls with tired hearts and broken wings
Locked behind screens
Too scared to admit they are falling apart
Too scared to admit that they are drowning in despair
Too scared to admit they are afraid and alone
As they stare in the mirror, the real reflection stares back
Revealing the crooked smile and injured soul
But, no! they can't let the world see what's beneath their beautiful
So they drink a glass or three to drown it away
Puff a cigarette or two to smoke it away
When morning comes they'll pose for the camera fake a smile post up and play it cool
While they gaze at their screens and keep count on their "likes"
As soon as the sun goes down
The sadness creeps in and their inner voice roars
They drink a glass or three to drown it away
Puff a cigarette or two to smoke it away
Until the sun comes up and put it on repeat

Social media is training us to compare our lives,instead of appreciating everything we are.No wonder why everyone is always depressed.”-Bill Murray

By the sea shore,
I feel the love, I feel the joy,
I feel the freedom, I feel the power
From dawn to dusk, Your beauty never fades
You glisten in the sun shine and sparkle in the moonlight
Your infinite waters mystify my mind
As the motion of your waves makes endless melodies to my heart
You cleanse my soul and fill my spirit
You give me joy, you give me bliss
You restore my peace, you revive my light
Oh you've cast a spell on me!
I'm forever I'm indebted to you  
You're my home, you're my solace

Somedays it feels like a night mare
Caught up in a dream where I'm the only one awake
Somedays it feels like I'm running blind trapped in a changing maze
Somedays it feels like I'm a bird floating in the atmosphere
with a happy go lucky vibe, just going with the wind
Somedays It feels like I'm the sun
My head is held up high and my soul is shining bright
Somedays are great
Somedays are vague
But everyday I'm here living

You and I signed up for this dance, but darling we somehow forgot the moves. Hence our souls do what they do best speak fluently in silence

Who knew the tiny electric sparks we felt when we first met, would light up fires so huge in our hearts that no one would dare fight let alone put out

Feelings were more than flesh and skin
But something deeper
That lingers like echoes in the sea
  ask for more, not just a longing, not just a need
  With the weight of silence draped in stars
Entwined like roots that grow from planted seed, something steady
  something free
  Something more for love to and burn
Feelings were more than flesh and skin,
But something deeper,
That lingers like echoes in the sea,
Asks for more, not just a longing, not just a need
With the weight of silence draped in stars.
Entwined like roots that grow from planted seed,
Something steady, something free,
Something more for love to tend and burn,
A flame that bends but never fades,
A current pulling hearts in turn.
Not just fleeting embers in the night,
But constellations carved in time,
A love that hums in whispered light,
Soft, eternal, and sublime.

In a *** of dreams, where flavors twirl and spin,
If you’re bold enough to stir, be ready for the grin.
Taste the broth, let your senses swoon,
Just don’t forget, dear Finder—lick the spoon!
Relish in your accomplishments

But darling, I cried as I watched the ocean waves gently kiss the sand, each crest revealing secrets of longing and love. The salty breeze wrapped around me like a familiar embrace.

With each wave that rolled in, I felt my heart break open, the water drawing out my sorrow and returning it transformed

In that fragile moment, I understood—just as the tides ebb and flow, so too do our emotions, forever intertwined with the vastness of the world around us.

The ocean a mirror, whole yet always broken.

Unspoken soul and a restless heart that echoes tenderness, yet beats untamed.  I see myself beyond the water's gaze.

The waves bring me back to shoreline. Safe and sound. I sync into the ebb and flow unwinding the mind

The clouds hoover, filled with vengeance and wrath the ocean roars. A mystery of the tide, that reflects the higher highs and lower lows.  I watch from a distant as I ponder over it.

The ocean a mirror whole yet always broken

There are those in life
Who have given their best
Shot their best shot
Jumped their longest stride
Walked their longest mile
Ran their longest race
Climbed their highest peak
Although somehow they still haven't reached their destination
Haven't found their happy ending
But they still put their best foot forward
they rise after every fall and keep pushing
Until one day the find their answer
Until one day they turn dust into gold
Until one day they become the light at the end of the tunnel
They beam like a lighthouse
and show the world who they are made of, made of stardust
They shine bright like gemstones on the midnight blue sky

To be a star you need to embrace the darkness
Stars can't shine without darkness
Sonia Ettyang Dec 2018
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

"Wild hearts deserve strong lovers." John Mark
Sonia Ettyang Sep 2018
It was random, it was unexpected
But I felt like I've known you before , seen you before, felt you before
You looked deep into my eyes for the first time
And it felt like you pierced right through my soul
So much so, I couldn't hold your gaze any longer
But that twinkle in your eye was oh! so perfect, sigh
And your voice **** it! it struck a chord in my heart
Opening a music box full of forgotten melodies
Oh, well I think I missed a heart beat every time you'd get close
So I ran and you denied it and hid away
We pushed each other away
But I still felt you when you'd think of me
And each day you'd trespass my lucid dreams
Clouding my mind with thoughts of you
I guess it's crystal clear that there's no escaping this soul collision
We are destined hearts, together or apart
Our souls are in sync for eternity
We are forever imprinted on each other
Like prints on the palms of our hands
So lets let this  love flow endlessly
and burn,  to infinity and beyond.

And then the butterfly untrap itself from the chrysalis and spread its wings out
At last! its eyes were wide open and it marveled at every blossoming flower  
and sweetness of the nectar
with sheer joy it flew back to tell the caterpillars about its awesome discovery but none of them believed it
They doubted it because they have never had wings to fly and witness the world above ground
And so with every inch in the air  the butterfly decided to fly away and find those of its kind. Far it flew and never looked back
The end.

Two hearts that beat as one, Indebted to the journey of finding each other's essences. Follow the currents that redefine our hopes and dreams. Relive the moments that weave the present into the future pediment. Forever standing as one.
Sonia Ettyang Feb 25
Even the earth struggles with finite woes when the horizon calls like a distant dream. Leaving our unchatered minds to imagine beyond the vastness. Secrets of the stars,  and rhythm of the auroras.
A timeless wonder indeed! Inspiring the  adventures of men in the moon, space and beyond.
Nevertheless, the infinite depth of what was, what is and what will be will forever remain is to uphold
And even though the cosmos may seem so far. Every being knows its path beneath the sun. For each footstep, big or small, strong or fragile. It found the courage to grow and stand tall
Through valleys of doubt, over mountains of fear,
With every stride, the path becomes clear.
Each step a story, a dream taking flight,
A journey unfolding, from darkness to light.
The ground may tremble, the winds may howl,
Every bruise, every scar, a mark of grace,
That shows the courage to continue the race.
No matter the size, no matter the pace,
The steps we take, leave an indelible trace.
For every challenge, we find the strength to stand,
Each footstep a testament to the soul’s command.
Finding  a place admist eternal praise.
We are Unity
Sonia Ettyang Oct 2024
I never knew our hearts were travelers,
fated to meet in the fleeting embrace of time,
yet racing through the moments of life.
You, sat by the window,( train in motion)
one hand on the pane, eyes tracing horizons.

And there I stood, luggage in hand,
lost in the warmth of your gaze,
wondering how I missed the whispers
of destiny in the rush.

The train pulled away from the station,
a heartbeat lost in the distance.
Tell me, beloved, will our paths cross again,
or are we but shadows in the twilight,
woven together in the tapestry of dreams?
Sonia Ettyang Oct 2024
I stand on the road,
One foot ahead, where the wild winds blow.
A suitcase in one hand, dreams tucked inside,
A thumb raised high, with the world as my guide.

Eager for a cruise with a heart to discover,
Each mile a whisper, as I search for my lover.
With stars as our compass and the sea as our song,

Dense forest
Lush greenery
Clear skies
Crispy air
Bare feet
Dropped leaves
Bloomed petals
Chirping birds
Whistling wind
Dancing trees
This is where I belong
A place where silence speaks
And my spirit runs free
I'm a wild heart
So send me out into the woods
I meant for the wild
This is my haven
I'm a wild heart
Come let's take a walk on the wild side
Experience liberty
Feel the tranquility
Enjoy the epiphany
Eliminate the illusory

Your wings are ready , set yourself free
Heed the call and take a leap of faith
Jump off the nest and move with the wind
Leave the past behind
Have complete trust in the power of your new found wings
Rise above the shadows of doubt that blind your heart
And go set go
Sit on the weakest  branches, without fear of falling
Stand on the tallest buildings and enjoy the best views
Rise to the infinite sky with clear vision and  focus .        
Soar higher and higher to new heights
Feel the rays of the summer sun
Kiss every flower in the open field
Fly child, fly

Each time our eyes met
Two worlds collided
You could tell what we were feeling
was beyond our control
Just like that I fell for you and you crushed for me
Everything flashed in front of us
Like a long lost memory coming back to light
And we are just picking up from where we left
This is a story, written in the stars
Two destined hearts meant to come together as one
