Her
She was a shy, sensitive young woman with smaller hands and lean, long fingers that beautifully graced the pencil as she wrote poetry, or rather, the whispers of her heart within a small leather notebook, whenever she became curious, the dark, lustrous brown eyes would glimmer in fascination as the entire world would become you, she was not particularly beautiful though her heart was pure, remaining hidden through her poetic worlds as though listening to classical music, the streams of violins are the winds tousling her midnight hair as a dreamer of the night, her quiet demeanor and depth in thought hide her way in understanding and shaping a person or only musing about the simple beauty of the moment, she would see the stars while everyone walked past them and appreciate what others could not see at first glance, as the light once hidden among the leaves she was noticed by the one who had came closer, while placing her palm on her fair face when thick in listening, the painted portrait of the female poet always held her cup of warm tea, content in her recluse until there was a gaze upon her, opening a glimpse into her soul.

One
Hear my story,
for my wealth
means nothing
when I cannot share
my heart, let us sit
together as I open the
scars, revealing the raw,
beating human, hear the
rush of my blood, echoing
the unheard cries of the
the wounded and the poor,
rushing through yours, I will
widen this heart only when you
wish to open your eyes, I speak the
truth, stranger, but when you hear
my words, you shall not find any
strangeness, for we are of the same
liquid spirit, take my hand, as we collide,
snapped loose of mortality,
we are regenerated, ultimate,
Infinite, a blend of creation,
we collide with the earth
aligning to form
a world of one
one  world  earth  collide  creation  infinite  regeneration  ultimate  mortality  collision liquid  spirit  truth  heart  wounded  poor wealth  unheard  cries  echo  raw  story  human  spiritual
The
seagulls
flying
above,
I become
as them,
being at peace
with the sea,
expecting none,
receiving all
Once upon a time,
there was a princess
named Luna, she
ruled the kingdom
of the moon, until
the queen, the former,
now elderly, ruler had
passed away, so the
kingdom disappeared
and the princess was
left to wander the
stars, her heart
was a void of
sadness after the
queen died and the
kingdom dissolved
with the mist, she
roamed the shadows
of space, until
she found a
peculiar light,
upon floating
closer, she found
the prince of the sun,
he was also sad, as
his planet was
engulfed by a
larger star, the
princess said
to him, "we are
both very sad,
so we will heal
each other"
they held hands,
feeling the power
of their hearts
glowing the
light of love,
and together,
they birthed the
new kingdom of
Luna and Sol
Why
do you
pull me
In as a
wave
and push
with the
strength
of your
wind,
why
do I
always
end up
lifting my
battered
wings
to fly
back to
your storm?
I ask questions
only my heart
knows the
answer to
Behold,
the paradise
beyond,
where you
see the
sun, and
It's light
only
reflects
the fairer
In radiance,
where
In the
deepest
silence,
As the
light
behind
a cloud,
you
rise to
the places
unseen
