You feel like okay my fingers itch twitch like it needs to be written needs to, ah like, squeeze it all out and in between it feels tremendously like
***
And what if
No kid this time no what ifs
This time just running if you feel like it
This time
Just hum like a humming bird not like
A wrecking ball caught between two schedules
You now
Have full control
Of your body parts baby
No dealing with outer fury and
Guilt in order to make them shift
You have
Grown a whole
Incredible lot
Like a mountain on the move
And dealt with
Water whirling in the
Scariest form
No one now
Dare
Touching
Your untouchable parts and if so
Become
A tiger and roar like what not
Roar your guts out have them spill
In front of everyone right on
The coffee table
Does no harm to
Shake 'em up a bit
Once in a while-
Oh what
A lightened smile this casts
Upon your face
What a
Feast of learning
Celebrate
Yourself
My dear
Remember
It is
Chaos
It
Is
Always
Here
For you

She lurks
around the corner meeting
the Lion's yellow eyes
half smiling half
keeping his power in
disguise
so as to make her step out of
the shadow

Her gaze through
wooden planks
from high above not yet
daring to confront herself
with that Lion
with that Power?
Always measuring his
every step-
Not yet
descending?
What the...?
Me Feb 2021
The little girl sits
with her braids flipping
on the wooden swing not
just swinging wildly yet
The greatest shame always was
she says
wisely
to let loose the infinite amount
of Love I carry in me
because

here you wait
you know this is
most essential
because they just wouldn't, for some reason, take it

Beat, goes your heart
and you let it connect
Me Jan 2020
I currently gather
The fragments and sometimes
Am surprised who or what
I find while truly looking
Do you know everyone and every aspect of yourself yet ;)  ?

He used to
park his rusty red
mobile
near the riverside where you
tend to walk
chat talk
to the world
He used to serve the most
passionate Latte
One day you recognised
a delicate
bird on the foam
He used to park near the riverside
and still does
Art is patient and perseveres through times where there's seemingly no audience :)
Me Jun 2020
as your view
widens and
your
patience
allows you to
watch
things
unfold
you
bit by bit cross
the term
random
out of your
dictionary
replace it
with
yet to
explore

A playful kid shakes
An outstreched
Shaking hand of
A hesitant being
Smiling confidently
Take it easy
Saying
The gap will
Melt away like
Ice in summer
♥️
Me Dec 2019
I forgot the steps
In between
And thus the chaos, dear
Excuse me please
I'll fix it but i need
A hand in fixing
Look, here,
You know the work
Me May 1
She is a young Warrior of Hearts, fierce yet thoroughly kind with the help of the Earth and a black Jaguar at her side, always. She has learned to command the Energies of the earthly Elements and channel the calm and unconditional and powerful Energy of her Brother and friend in Spirit, the silver light, who is a young man, modest but strong, short Hair and kindness shining from his entire figure. He deeply loves the Earth and she has gifted him with all sorts of green leaves and vivid flowers thruout their time together. She has the Warrior Dance in her blood, knows no chronology, number or comparison. She knows the Moment, the fight, the dance, and was born for that. She has wild, colorful hair to her shoulders with braids and feathers sticking out. Her face is painted with the Red Marks of War, and her eyes are steady and sparkle golden. She has the statue of a teenager, but she is slender and strong. Her only  armour is a golden chest protector, a short fluffy skirt of feathers and fur, and a silver moonstone around her neck. She uses her right hand and on her palm there is a Spiral Tattoo. He and she fight together now, side by side. And in harmony. She lets him surround her in his silver flame If she needs it, and she amazes him.
Quietly, but ever present and deep, sits the Moon Goddess in her pink lotus, wearing a simple long dress out of the fabric of the Universe itself, bright Stars stichted into it. She does not need to look at them to see them. Yet she holds the space for them to interact and dance. She is beautiful and timeless, a deep sense of calmness and integrity surround her. She feels affectionate towards them, and yet does not need to name her resonance for it always surrounds them, too.

✨✨✨

The Moon Goddess has accepted her Name and yet can accepts many names and none. Her Name does not define her, but it makes tangible what she has to offer to whom ever is willing to listen in the stillness. Her children are not only playing, they are putting her into Action, by their very own will. Her gaze resides on them in quiet amazement, and a glint of motherly pride moves her spacious Heart. They remind her.

Ideas thoughts photons dart
at the sheer spaciousness -
that
is your heart there
in the middle
Me Apr 2020
Do not hide
a single tear dripping
down from your chin
do not listen
to the jealous
insecure choir
be male
be delicate

Again,  crying has nothing to do with showing weakness; it's showing yourself in a vulnerable state which to me is the opposite of weakness; courage, and a statement to others to do the same.

Down from
the earth a vibrant
humming sound fills
its spot makes
you gasp
propel hot
waves through
your legs up
into
your lungs
come
love
do not ever
stop
Me Jan 2020
Take off your clothes along with
your false believes, bank account, infiltrated systems
cough up your wounds and heal them
unwind
leave city, color, job, house and religion
far behind
just for a bit

and look: what do you see?

From here you can
climb from the ashes like a
free bird in the morning sun

Come up with your
completely own cute tale, my Dear
and spin it

You are the world;
move in it
Me Jun 2020
Racks my brain
racks my brain racks my-

because:
how why for what
reason

do we
so much in vain attempt
to
pin
things
down

not let them

be

Somewhere in the prairie
A wolf howls
And it could be anywhere
But it taps you
Right on the shoulder
Belying
Time or
Locality
Me Apr 2020
This tugging on
your sleeve when
a strong feeling
arises -
now you might want
to release it


Me May 15
She sits next to you now, on the dusty
Brick wall munching a green apple
Unperturbed
As your thoughts about time
Are still rattling

So,
She states, looking at you
I have been
Here beside you all the time,
Haven't I

Your brain snaps

She winks.

Then, with a click,
Your brain takes it, got it

Move.
Me Sep 2020
He takes you
By the hand swirling
You around in a delicious
Semi-circle

And you will never
Break your legs, dear
You will never
Break your legs

You are
Made to dance
Made yourself so as
To dance and not fall
Or, if you wish, entitle it with The Internal Dancer :)
Me Jul 2020
Peer over the edge,
dear, and look
right into the seething
center
of the volcano
it will not ever
really harm you
Me Nov 2020
In the middle of the middle
of no space
a pair of yellow, childlike eyes,
innocent and with
just a trace of oblivion,
opens
Is it open, or opens?

A look at
Creation
A rush of
Fear of so much
Love
And:
Crack
There he was
Placed outside
Consciousness
Take him back in already.

In my mind I see
a single
pinkish
petal
zigzagging through the air
according to a very
private logic
and I am stunned
by the beauty
of it

The fool runs through
every imagined wall
and crashes it
for you
holds out his hand with this
heart-warming crooked smile
and asks you to
catch up
Me Jun 2020
The fool
directs
every move from
behind the curtains with
most
loving
playful care
one eye
teary
of compassion
the heart bigger
than space

Do you like
Vanilla ice cream, Love
You nod say yes because
They have told you so they say all kids like
Vanilla ice cream, right

For years and years into
Your adult life you have
Despised
Vanilla ice cream until

One day in spring
The ice cream van comes rushing down
The curvy street
And you do feel
A twitch inside-
Step forward and buy
With a beaming smile on your face
A scoop of
Vanilla ice cream
Me Jan 2020
Horror sometimes
Seems to skip
A generation
Before it can be
Uttered and
brought to the light
My parents tried really bravely to deal with or break this silence. It must have been very hard, i see now.
Me Aug 2012
He looked up into the grey sky
and decided: it's not time yet, I got time
and, shakig off the cold, massaging his hands,
he said: it should rhyme.

And thus he began:

To fabricate the best amongst all the poems -
that is what I will do, and forget about the rest
and the empty phrases
that fill no cup and no page.

To make you wonder, and frown
and think: who is this?
This master of words, of letters,
What kind of bliss
is he blessed with?

Then also: to make you remember
my name and my word,
and the fame that so uplifted
my thoughts.

And: to remind you
of my soul and bones
when I shall be gone, and not long after that,
you will build a statue
of stone.

But before all that I will-
I must-
I should-

But where shall I begin?
Where shall I
begin?

And you will put down your paper, your pen,
you will sigh, and know: all this was only a revery.
Then you will stand up, undress, stand naked in front of the mirror-
and dance.
Me Apr 2021
A golden blanket wrapped
around you
Her words
I will always be with you
and you begin to accept
their feeling true
This poem was a challenge. I will not delete it.

Oh I don't
swing to your rhythm
old world
are you not
glad I came
to terms with this?

A golden
Scale
Reflects
From where it lies
There in the stream
A gleaming
Single
Ray of light
Directs it so that
It
Precisely
Hits
The iris
Of my resting eye
And
By its
Sheer power
Makes me
Shiver

Quietly growing
Slow
And Patient
Under a warm
Blue palm
In the full knowing
Time is for You.

The skull in my hand
Made me understand
How fragile she was
And how hostile I had been.

Still, I have had my chance
And she had hers too.
Thus I stand here and dig
Feeling the weight of her bones
And the layers of dust
Which have grown strangely thick.

I wish I could turn back
The hands of time,
Some might say,
They would pray
For her soul.

Mine, though, would last
For only the grim hearts do so
And to try now to wake her
Would be breaking the flow
Of that beautiful air.

It would be like counting
The single leaves of grass
In this garden
So instead of this
I count dust, bones,
And I harden the layer
Which comes last in this poem.
Me Jul 2020
...
knows that it's fine
Once in a while
To hide instead of
Fighting
If only just
To catch
Your breath

What you call
imagination, Dear
I simply call it
memory
Me May 2012
In the middle is a little black spot,
An odd thing to look at
If you consider the fact that
What creeps from that place
Is what keeps me alive.

But it moves in a slow pace;
And more and more I fear
That what comes near
Comes from within.

The black mark has reshaped its edges
And matches the form of my face
In the mirror –
Only that – now –
The pounding has stopped.

The darkness
diffuses.
Me Jul 2020
Inside of you sits
a beating heart
that patiently waits til it feels
safe to take you
right through the core and out again
all the time
reminding you
with every subtle beat
of all the other
beating hearts
all of them
beginning to remember
how well they knew
each other
always
to Jamadhi Verse; thank you for inspiring me to write this  :)

Under layers of
Dark soothing water lies
The Heart of the Ocean
Harbouring
An unspoken Secret
Hidden away by your own Hand
Til you come
Find it

Surprisingly
on the tip of
the tallest tree outside
sits a heron
still and looking
for the first time
I see
such a big bird
on this tree
and am glad
to have seen it
I said hi, too.

She lives in
a house full of candles and lights
one for each happy thought

He walks by and feels
the warmth of her fire
on his skin and stops

and knocks on her door.

You go inward trying to
listen
listen

but the child
does not speak to you
yet
I know you are there. Please talk to me.
Me Sep 2020
You hand me
words that I translate
into colour for you so that you
can understand
I loosen them up
break, gently, their hard lines and shapes
so that their energy becomes one
you can handle
so that this world becomes
one you can handle,
dear
Me Feb 2013
No matter how far
you can walk
no matter where you take your turn
nothing will show
upon this land
nothing will grow.

Burn all the waste
dig holes so deep
the ground breaks in upon itself
blow up the soil
so that the seep
comes up.

And in the end
you see-
you walk towards yourself:
a convex mirror hems
your field-
and as you try to flee
and as you try to shield your face-

it closes in upon you.
Urgh.....
Me Dec 2012
Holding
  My fingers
To my brain
It hurts-
    Framing my face, my head
       Encircling inner horrors
          And still –
For all there is, for all the dread-
I still don’t care.
Me Oct 2019
If you were granted
just one single
colour
to see and keep and wear
for all your life-
which one would it be, asks the cat
rainbow, says the girl
and clap!
their hands touch in the
crystal air
for a high five
before they strive toward
the sleeping Cities
Me Apr 2020
The King is dead
Long live the-
No!
Let's put
On
Every
Single
Head

A crown
And rule
Our lives
We are
The kings
And queens

And then we part
into storm and chaos and we do so because
we can
because
we know

in truth

nothing

separates us

As it came running
Like three lights or three eyes,
I could not but would not
Step aside fast enough.

It hit me and cold steel,
Slashing my body,
Drove right through the inside
Of my bones and heart.

Grieve not, for this time
I felt deadly alive.
Me Nov 2020
On a dark blue ocean wave rides
a red-white striped
lighthouse
beams
simultaneously
inward and out -
You cannot miss it
Me Jan 2012
Clapping and smiling
They will tear me to pieces,
Outraged and amused,
They will knock me down.

I am a new member,
So please be soft on me.
Have mercy, my people,
You see what I cannot.
