for the first time in years, it aches
yes, tiny heart, heavy chest

for the love that is absent
no, little words matter still

for the remains of a shattered soul
yes, its own life is at stake

What she whispers to the deity

in her daily evening prayer
from her lips' quiver
I try to hear

I try to understand
what she asks of her god
with folded hands

is it her own welfare she prays
begs from the deity
well being of her family
wealth and safety

or her prayer is not that small
she asks god for the good of all

I am not sure
but deep within feel
her prayer is pure

through years of asking
but never receiving
she has quit
praying for any specific thing

she prays as a need
as an inseparable thought
whether god heeds her
or not.

To: the nineteen year old version of myself who's falling in love right now.

Love him.
Love him with all your heart, lungs, liver and kidneys too.
In fact, just love him with your entire existence.

Love him even though he will not love you back.

And it's okay because I need you to do that for me so I can grow.

Love,
Me
It had to happen to help me to self-reflect and start a journey of self discovery and loving myself.

"Every Poet dips their pen in an inkwell,
They pour out his or her heart soul,
Their soul that tell a story of fervor,
Of love passion and loss in a canticle or sonnet,
that one will never FORGET"

trees spread their wings welcoming and hugging an uncertain spring
Beautiful it comes to life, there is no need for anything
Ebb and flow stirred by the moon, seasons changing way too soon
Oh... LOVE, Oh... LOVE
The dark Angel of death
Come to my eyes and stay
Empty all your LOVE within me
While YOU make LOVE to me

LOVE gushed from your SOUL into mine
Through the foggy tears of the eyes
Through those fragrance of your body
Through the smiles on your curved lips
Through the pores of your skin into mine
Penetrate into my inner being with force
Make home within my womb & inner core
Let your LOVE flow from our perspiration
And let our sweat mix up into one salt
Let our limbs pass through each other's
Valleys down and through our body curves
Oh... LOVE - Rest forever into my home

Oh..LOVE, make me cry the whole night
Oh..LOVE, keep me awake in your desires
Oh..LOVE, let me stare at the moon, & sky
Oh... LOVE let me count your sparkling stars

Oh..LOVE stare in my eyes with a smile
Oh..LOVE hold my hand with kindness
Oh..LOVE hug me with lots of care
Oh..LOVE - make LOVE to me with passion

Oh..LOVE heal every wound of life
Oh..LOVE let my tears dry in your navel
Oh..LOVE Let us not leave each other
When every season change colors

Oh..LOVE let us defeat birth-death cycles
And stay eternally alive within each other
Oh LOVE, make LOVE to me so much
That I do not ever sleep at nights
Without the thought of being within YOU

Oh... LOVE, Oh... LOVE
The dark Angel of death
Come to my eyes and stay
Empty all your LOVE within me
While YOU make LOVE to me
