Sides
Marie-Lyne Oct 2018
For there are two sides of life
and it's okay if
you belong to one side
Marie-Lyne Dec 2017
I am not like the others
My skin is made of a
thousand dreams that needed more tourists
and my eyes are poetic places
My hands have caressed  
the pages of many old books
and my nose will always recognize the
scent of the people that I love
I have tasted the flavor of
new beginnings
But my ears were never able
to hear the sound of your voice
My feet have touched the
sand of your imagination
But my hair couldn't
bear the heavy winds
coming from your stormy mind
My arms couldn't
embrace your sweetness
But my teeth were made
to mash these dark thoughts
of yours and transform them into tiny ones

Still get visits and attention.

A Thank you note
Marie-Lyne Jul 2017
Thank you for that person that told me
that I won't make it
that I will fail
You don't even know how much you helped
me challenge myself and work harder

That you only need yourself
To feel confident

Nostalgia and memories
Marie-Lyne Jul 2019
What haunts us most
is these moments that reached perfection
But passed by as ordinary moments   when they were happening

Marie-Lyne Mar 2017
me
help me
become better
help me
i am fragile as ****
i feel useless
and unwanted
help me
let me talk
i wanna speak about my deepest fears
what makes me wake up in the morning
That strength that i’m given to get up
leave my bed and start a new day
help me organize my thoughts
help me get rid of my unwanted feelings
help me help me
my weakness is growing
and i am trying to destroy it before it destroys me
and i’m left empty on the floor of my bedroom
let me cry hysterically
i need this once in a while
help me stop missing people that aren’t in my life anymore
help me even if i don’t ask you to do it
help me dear whoever you are

We always seek
Better things to come

heartbreak hotel
Marie-Lyne Dec 2017
Just like french songs
that simplicity
and that purity
I wanted to be the girl that broke the singer's heart
I wanted to be a song
with few lyrics
and a ton of emotions
171 · Jul 2019
Pray
Marie-Lyne Jul 2019
I don’t care
Who do you think of
When you wake up
First thing in the morning
Tell me who’s the person
That you pray for
Every night
Before you go to sleep
Pray sleep night
170 · Jul 2017
Trust me
Marie-Lyne Jul 2017
You grow up
when you don't get
sad when something
is bothering you
You just accept it
You even smile
Like there's a voice inside you
more powerful than
the other
Whatever happens
Think of it
as a good thing
And you'll always
feel comfortable
Trust me

Sometimes we let go
Just because we’re tired of trying

Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
We are humans
constantly afraid
of judgment
commitment
and people
not loving
us back

Leave
everything
that
lacks
love

We are not here
to be serious
but to enjoy
this life
as weird as it gets

We are here to fight
the bad feelings
that accompany us
everyday when we wake up
from deep sleeps

We are here to listen
and talk
to have a soul that
corresponds to our physical
appearance

Don’t abandon
what makes you
feel

To be able to
see someone after
a long time
is a blessing
and a real miracle

Sometimes we try to fix people
Because we think they need to change
162 · Mar 2017
Our parents
Marie-Lyne Mar 2017
will we ever get rid of our rituals?
can we stop making connections
creating meanings
of the smallest things
can we stop blaming our parents
maybe they aren’t complete
but they took care of us
when we were too small
too naive
and too young
they loved us
more than everything
the love you have for your parents can’t be replaced
that pure love
that divine love
isn’t found in relationships nor marriages
we lost it
and thats okay
you know we are humans
we destroy things
we create chaos
we complicate our daily life
162 · Dec 2018
How would you do it?
Marie-Lyne Dec 2018
Should we interpret it
Or just accept it as it is
Should we indulge in endless explanations
Or sit in silence
What is the most adequate response
To problems
Complications
Fights

Belonging
Marie-Lyne Feb 2022
It will happen to you
one day
out of nowhere
after a long day
You go back home
you take a shower
you start to prepare dinner
and then suddenly
you look outside
The fresh air visits you
You close your eyes
You feel a divine serenity
and your mind starts playing
all the events from your youth
Comme back child, here is your home
you are welcome
you are loved
Carry on even if fear lives in your heart

My version of Rocky
Marie-Lyne Jul 2017
What I want you to do
Is to have a fight with yourself
Convince yourself that you are good enough
That you're better without them
Start somewhere
It doesn't matter if you're slow
Time is not important
But achievements are
Go on
Show me all your strength
Give me all the force that is inside you
You are a fighter because you challenge yourself
You face your fears instead of running away
I want to see that side of yours

Accept your fears
And all the things that you lack
Marie-Lyne May 2017
Don't make promises
Let the unexpected
Let the days lead you
take you
Don't make plans
Let life integrate you in
its own plan
Don't go around searching for
for a soul similiar to yours
Let the other person's
soul fly to you
As sweet  and tender
as the wind that blows
Don't be afraid
Take your chance
         your shot
Don't hope too much
or think too much
Let everything takes its place
Let everything have the time that it
needs to be accomplished
Don't be stressed, there is
always someone to encourage you
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
You'll be strong enough
And everything that bothered you before
will become meaningless
And you'll finally move on

Hello, 2022
Marie-Lyne Jan 2022
I am grateful for the little things that pass by as mundane and unimportant
I am grateful for my family that strengthens me
everytime I want to give up
I am grateful for routines that organize my life
I am grateful for everything that makes life boring
I am grateful for my negative and bad days
I am grateful for the snow and the fresh air
I am grateful for my soul for never leaving my body
2022, I believe you’ll make feel more grateful

What I wrote on the beach
Marie-Lyne Aug 2018
What is life without love?
Meaningless
What is life without hope?
Insignificant
What is life without respect?
Irrational
What is life without feelings?
Useless

To leave a certain space
with someone you used to admire
is called a distant childhood love

Believe that good things
are on their way
They will happen
They will be part of your life
But do not chase them
For they come to you
like little breezes of air
Unable to be seen
But felt deeply and strongly
within your soul
137 · Feb 2022
Stop hiding
Marie-Lyne Feb 2022
Stop hiding
Start showing up for yourself
Stop hiding
Your fear can push you closer to your goals
Stop hiding
You are here now so take advantage of it
