the black rose May 2019
hidden,
in the shadows
based on opinions gathered.
you hide behind the walls of all the things that never mattered.
half-open,
half-broken,
half-truths in words spoken.
you're searching for a way
to break free,
still hoping
that you can come alive again.
grow wings so you can fly again
and experience new heights before your journey reaches end.
you deserve to smile without watching who's around,
you deserve to love,
wild
and not have to tone it down.
you deserve a space where your true colors can show.
you deserve a love to take everywhere that you go.
you know you do..

the first of its kind,
look closer you'll find
a hint and a sign
of a brilliant,
divine
work of art.
far from usual,
and so far apart
from the ordinary.
tell me,
where else have you seen her?
the true face of god.
so much strength,
her demeanor
shines,
glistens like the jewels in a chest
but she's buried underground,
beneath the mark of an x.
which lucky seeker
thats hunting for treasure
-
will get the privilege,
be blessed with much pleasure?
daily dose of words. ♡

uninspired yet still so inspired.

moving at a reasonable pace but sometimes i start to wonder if im moving..
or moving fast enough.
left my faith in the hands of the universal decider;
& im not worried
i just need reassurance.
then a message so timely,
on the walls in the sky brings awareness to the questions of who, how and why.
"you are here, you exist.
all that you seek is in the midst of all that surrounds you.
feed your spirit,
let it ground you.
bring you back down to the earth,
no need to question or search.
divine timing and plans
are in motion and stands with the forces that were sent here to guide you.
for reassurance take another look inside you."
thank you!
everything works out..

theres still chaos in midst of the stillness.
a balance,
the bad mixed with good its
thrilling...
not knowing what to expect
& through it all
ill live on with no trace of regret.
each step brings me closer to the edge of possibility;
each time that i fall i am refocused on humility,
my agility,
my courage,
my ability to rise
becomes louder than my cries.
faith louder than my fears,
fill a river with my tears;
i embrace them
for they are not a sign of weakness.
only the strong survive,
no space amongst us for the weak.
less focus on the trials,
we dont recognize a worry.
to each its own,
to each a throne,
a space to re-write the story.
the black rose May 2019
if theres one thing thats real,
its that true love can heal
& reveal all you've locked up inside
& concealed.
to fall into arms that dismiss insecurities & inferiorities;
re-shifting priorities.
renewing hearts & souls,
taking on the roles of mystic healers,
anti-depressant dealers.
a change in demeanor,
when you feel her.
its like the pieces scattered
piece themselves together.
& nothing even matters,
for a moment or forever.
-
all that you need in this life of sin;
to find a love to take you deep within.
love.
the black rose May 2019
still writing poetry
on a love we thought could be.
still moving slowly
from the thought of you and me.
new arms wrapped around me,
holds me longer than those 4am calls.
holds me closer,
i have let down my walls.
while i was waiting for you,
you moved on
before i even knew.
now a new love has taken on your role.
i grew,
almost unrecognizable.
you saw it
but still chose to ignore it
for short nights of pleasure.
one mans trash became another mans treasure.
the black rose May 2019
saw the ending
from the beginning
still we resisted.
still we insisted that maybe love was on our side.
id always run,
id always hide
and you'd come find me
like a game of hide and seek.
we'd always fantasize about the day we finally meet.
you told me all your secrets and you shared your deepest fears.
when no one else would listen you would vent to me,
i cared.
you shared
your whole life in one night.
still you gave in,
without resistence,
no fight.
we lost sight
and maybe losing was for the better.
maybe we are better off
distant,
apart
than close together.
