your DNA is wild
so please,
take care
of your inner child
you may pass some challenging phases
although people don’t want you
to grow in certain places
so grow through concrete
in the middle of the street
grow in a litter bin
grow from dirt
grow in different directions
grow with imperfections
because your roots are strong
and you aim up high
until you reach the sky
so grow in every angle you want to
because there’s a wildflower in you.

You can't keep waiting,
For that very special time.
You just need to go for it,
Which is why I wrote this rhyme.

I would like to say that
I'm writing this to you from a cloud
On which dreams lay
Ready to fall softly into your mind
But other times it's flicked
Like a pebble skipping across the image
Ripples that ruffle smooth feathers
Unsettled and unnerved
Rooting myself in the ground
Trying to live in the round
That circle
That sphere
That vision in which everything is clear

Hesitate
And you will become spectator
To your own

You’re afraid to face the crowd, so you let her go instead
Let her say those words out loud that live inside your head
Let her feet test the waters, before you dive into the deep
Let your inhibitions fade, before you take that leap
Let her stand on stage, you’re just a spectator
Let her have the glory, let her bear the haters
Let her build your confidence, slowly brick by brick
Let her know all the flaws, before you reveal your trick
Let her learn and grow, let her discover where she went wrong
Before you step out from the curtains and show you it was you all along
Let her take the bow, while you listen to the applause
Let them cheer her name, you know that you’re the cause
But don’t get so cozy in the shadows, that you remain a silhouette
Of the name that gave you fame; don’t let her become a regret
Remember that you made her; she’s just a shield you hide behind
Never be afraid to let them see you and your ingenious mind

Your eyes are filled with longing
As you see her move across the stage;
The dancer sways to the music
With serene beauty and grace
Remember those dreams you had as a child?
Remember when you believed
That the girl on stage could be you,
That dancing was your destiny?
Somewhere when you were "growing up"
You told yourself you couldn't be
The shining star; that one in a million
You lost faith in all your dreams
You watch the dancer spin to the music;
She moves like an angel in the night.
Through the crowd, she smiles at you;
You feel your passion reignite
Remember those dreams you had as child?
Once again, they burn in your heart
But so many years have passed
You don't know where or how to start.
You'd lost your way and wandered
Far from all the hopes you had
Now you push past all your doubts
You dance till there's no going back
You work harder than you did before,
You tell yourself dreams can come true
You dance with all your heart and soul
Till that moment comes for you
Remember those dreams you had as a child?
Now they feel so very real.
Finally you stand on the stage
To show them all your skill and zeal
You dance with gay abandon
You forget the eyes that watch you
You move flawlessly to the music
This is what you were meant to do
The crowd rises; a standing ovation
With tears of joy, you take your bow
Remember those dreams you had as a child?
Well, those dreams are real now.

Her fingers pressing against
My hips
Pushing searching
Sweet taste in my mouth
Tongues playing
A game they know all too well
Shirt shoes jeans all off
Just me and her
Our skin hot and our breath
Ragged
But we drink each other in
And smile at our nakedness
The beauty of it all
Still amazes me
And I am in awe
As my fingertips dance across her
Naked shoulder
And waist
To pull her neck close
For a sensual kiss
