#openup
I work at the edge, where the light of Awen beckons,
Drawing me back to the warmth of this earthly life.
Foraging into uncharted realms, brambles cross my face,
thick and wild,
An unyielding maze where the shadows of my demons linger;
they are a little messed up.
Yearning to retreat, to find solace on familiar ground.
Visions of a goddess pulse an existence, so inspired
I stand tall, defenses at the ready,
Nurturing the delicate blooms of change within.
In the quiet moments of within myself, I gather strength,
For transformation requires time, patience, and grace
I humble my mind.
One day, I will rise, petals unfurling to the sun,
To bring forth my gifts, sharing the beauty of my journey
With the world the seed is broadcast, as I climb steadily from the dark.

it is beautiful
it is majestic
and it is guileful
and is eccentric
a speck on the tower of wall
that bridges and connects
two different enthralls
even fate dare not object
i was on its foot,
for i sought to grasp
and tried to peek
on the place it leads
i listen to the jarring echoes
the other side is full; a chaos
it seems, but i felt solace
in its mournful yet soulful melody
i heard words that are familiar
those that i chose to blur
in my being for a long strife
that i dwell to keep inside in an eternity
i ought to release the beautiful words
that is long chained
i long to feel the majestic emptiness
and sense the other side that is zestful
and clutch onto its empathetic possibilities
only if it bridges to a multitude,
only if perspective it will connect,
only if it is not unchained,
only if it is opened.

"I
don't have time
to be reading
paragraph after paragraph,"
she typed.
"but
I have time
to trick you
into thinking
you can open up to me
about anything,"
said her actions

Looking up at the sky,
What do you see?
When one tells a lie,
How does one breathe?
A man who tends to be shy,
Opens up like a blade from sheath.
Please don’t tell him good-bye;
One more heartbreak may lead him to die.

maybe someday
I’ll spill my guts to you
lay out everything that has hurt me and is still hurting me
give the story behind every poem I’ve ever written and heard and loved
maybe I’ll tell you everything,
you who was not here to witness
who didn’t see the rise and fall of rome,
the death of Latin but the survival of it’s plays
you who hasn’t been here long enough for the unfurling
maybe I’ll rip off all my petals
show you the inner workings myself
maybe someday,
I’ll tell you all the parts that I leave out, when I comfort you from the same burdens that crushed me
show you all the scars on my tongue, from biting it around you
tell you the stories these scars held back
maybe someday
I’ll just simply tell you everything
introduce you to my demons
and let you see the monstrous teeth that sit in rows behind my own
the blood under my fingernails, not all someone else’s
and see what you do
maybe someday I’ll tell you everything
maybe someday I'll spill my guts to you
maybe,
maybe one day

Open up
There are times
When wrong feels right
And right feels wrong
There are times when
You are cheated, denied, disrespected
There are times when
You are adored, cared, heard, loved
There are times
That tears you apart
There are times
That cheeres your soul
Embrace walk in
Embrace walk out
If there's no love
Then there should be
No hate
That's the life
It's okay
Breathe everyday
Or stay dying

Don't just let a smile hide what 'a hurt to heart' can override

To speak from the heart
Is never an easy task
But you help a bit

Do I know your middle or even your last?
Do I know your first or only more craft?
All-in the cash to cover the spread
drowning, our feet in the riverbed
What is it that you feel I am and I can contain?
I am slowly dieing, fleeting and insane
The pathways above me are crowded untrue
The mirror below me reminds me of you

After you
I don't want to open up anymore.
I told you everything
Because I could
You seem like the only one to stay
You knew me the most
But yet you did the worst thing
You could do to me.

One day I will muster all my courage
One day I will not care for the judges
One day I will clear all my grime
One day I will vent out all my anger
One day I will open up fearlessly
'Coz then I couldn't speak
When it all happened once
With me too!
And yes, I will find a caravan
Which is moving on
It may be late
But definitely in this lifetime
To live once again,
Forgetting all that happened once
With me too!
Not for the name or fame
Not for a revenge or blame
Just to sleep with peace
Once again in my innocence
Forgetting all those memories
That still haunts me
Those moments of shivering
When it happened once
with me too!
Yes it happened
With me too!

Don't you dare give me the cold shoulder, because I've told you, I don't like it when you hold it all in.
Information's my key, so don't keep it from me, cause honestly, I want to know what's in your head.
And are you aching, constantly breaking, faking, and I don't know what I'm supposed to believe.
The truth is in your eyes, I don't want to see you cry, simply lies to cover up your privacy.
But baby don't you wish that we....
Could talk.

Open up , I won't scare you
I'll be honest, I won't dare to
Just wanna hold you, I won't let go,
I'll be there and want you to be there too.

Let the tear roll down your cheek once in a while,
cry out loud for everything you have been holding in since long time!
Weep, weep and weep
running out of breath
or just sit with flowing eyes.
Whatever suits you, calms you down
just know a thing,
crying isn't sign of being cow.
Cowards are those who are scared to cry,
scared to open floodgates once in a while...

We all hide things,
For our own sake,
Sometimes for our own safety.
It's not disclosing the thing that hurts the most,
It's who and how it's disclosed.
I want you to know,
& I mean every word of what I say
" I'll die protecting your secret "
You opening up to me is more precious to me than any other thing existing

I looked at your eyes and they weren't just brown.
They held mysteries and secrets inside.
I noticed and was immediately bound;
you didn't let me in, all you did was hide.
It was not fair how much I opened up
while you bottled all and left me guessing,
as if I were a person that would rob,
as if one day I would leave you hanging.
I don't know who you thing I'd turn into,
but I promise you I'm not like the rest.
I would never leave you, nor learn how to,
I promise I will give you all my best.
So please, let me unlock your mystery,
I promise we can make some history.

Why are people scared to have their everything taken by someone? Jesus, I want nothing more than to have my everything taken away from me, stolen in the middle of the night while I'm sleeping. Quietly, without a sound. I want to wake up and realise someone thought parts of me was worthy of taking and worthy of loving. I want to make someone feel worthy of being loved and I want to make them feel like they're out of this ******* universe. And if they take my everything and run away and never come back, i'll hurt but I'll still sleep at night. I'll learn from it and grow from it but I'll be an emptier shell than before. Less to give to the next person. There's only so many times you can give your 'everything' to people before they all eventually strip you of everything you stood for and carve you from the inside out. Not leaving a trace of you ever being here.
