pitted against one another
to avoid the bigger picture
the daily monotony, the grind
until we have made enough money
to survive the world
was built to make us so hard

that being soft is radical

I believe in something
for the first time.
Love! I believe in love,
and that's the beginning
of you and me.

Aishu
I follow the rhythm of my heart.
I trust my instinct.
I believe in myself, and I do
all things with love.
Poem written in 2011
Why is it so, that
In the guiltless suffering
We wander so deep
So lost and astray in thought
To create and contemplate
With the first breath,
         a Cry!
     With the last breath,
            a Sigh.
         With all in between,
                  a Why?
