Sincerely Em Nov 2016
It was the waves you always went to -
At night under a blanket of stars

I was whispering to the moon -
When you heard me

Darling, here comes the start ..

I surrendered to the seabed;
The waters knew the way to you

You chased the moonlight's reflection
Sailing down the horizon hues -

Where the skies kissed the sea -
You kissed my soul anew

The stars fell onto my lap
And bow did the moon

You spoke of galaxies
You spoke of the heavens

And to places together we’ll fly

Oh but, darling!  
I was only falling deeper -
Into the wonders of your eyes

Colours started parting
Rolling the night away

And so the earth circled -
Towards the sunlight of that day
To many more ..

Sincerely, Em

Independence .. From the shoulds and shouldn'ts  
Independence .. I'm thirsty to explore
My soul yearns to sail at sea .. My body chains me to the shore
Chains are only people .. Only minds afraid to look

And I .. I slowly start liberating from the rules in their book

Fear .. I have enough of it for the world
Fear .. Also known as my gravedigger
As I wrap myself in the most finest silks of fear ..
My grave .. It only gets deeper .. Only bigger

And I .. I find myself at the cemetery pouring the sand back into my grave

Dreams .. Are only at my fingertips
Dreams .. They seep into my veins
I'm drugged .. My body trembles
"You're high .. Up in your dreams", they claim

And I ..  I keep running after my dreams only to trip over my fingertips

Friends .. I fell madly in love with a few
Alas .. I should have only kept them as so
Because friends .. Will unconditionally stand by you
Only if friends .. Aren't your lovers too

And I .. I screech within the depth of my being between holding on and letting go
Part 2
Sincerely Em Nov 2016
Abused .. By the thoughts your mind rapes my life with
Abused .. By your words that linger heavily on my shoulders
Abused .. By the pathways of hell to heaven

And I .. I only tumble when I soar

Sincerely Em Oct 2016
May you stumble upon joy this year -
Upon heavenly magical skies -
With clouds purple and yellow
Through deep reflections of your eyes

May you stumble upon Autumn leaves
That sweep you off your feet -
Up above the tallest tree
Where you can almost see July

May you stumble upon a ray of light -
At the very crack of dawn
When birds chirp and flowers grow -
With the light inside, you've grown

May you stumble upon a pile of wishes -
Hidden in a factory of your own
Wishes, in the making ..
Whilst others you have sewn

May you stumble upon this and that
And for every stumble, you are fond -
That all those times of sudden stumbling
You've been actually dancing upon ..
Keep dancing upon greatness ..

Sincerely, Em
