I am walking on a land
so full of wonders,
I get to eat its fruits and water so holy,
I too become holy
Lucky am I to have eyes,
to witness its dreamy trees and plants,
to feel the sun kissing my soul with it's rays of light

Stepping on this green land beneath my feet, I am healed
The breeze of air gently touching my hair
The smell of the beautiful natural surrounding, I can't get enough of
My ears are blessed everyday with the sound of birds

Truly magical is the beauty of nature,
why can't you see?
I am swimming in paradise
and I am not the only one,
miraculous is the Mother Earth,
because it lets all creatures to swim
in this eternal bliss ♡
I wrote this when I was 18.
It was a beautiful summer day and we were visiting a local arboretum. I saw so many different kinds of flowers, plants, trees I've ever seen in my life that time.
As i was walking the long evergreen paths,
i realized how much beauty there truly is all around us. All the gifts of life that we have taken for granted. My eyes opened and it was nourishing my soul. I started to appreciate all that i see, all that ever was given to me.

This might not be a poem.. But its something I'd like to leave behind for my beautiful and incredible children. Using 3 words sentences to sum it all..
I would like them to know that they taught me what True Love is, that they will always have me and my love by their side. How thankful i am for them, they are the best thing that ever happened to me. How proud they make me feel. I want them to live fully, to know that i believe in them, that they can accomplish ANYTHING in this world! To never ever give up and to always stay positive and happy. I will eternally be there with you, Sagr&Astera❤️

And why I emphasize the word Love in this, is because that's all life is really about.

Life gave me the truth
in exchange for my youth.
I'm a poet who has no idea
How to write poetry
I don't understand meter
Or metaphor
I just write what I feel
And try to explore

I'm scared inside
It's there that I hide

From the outside world
Where the pain and sadness collide

I'm safe inside
And It's there that I hide

From the outside world
Where anger and confusion reside

I'm still inside
And It's here that I hide

From all the feelings I can't confide
The feelings I hope in time will subside

If

If
If I gave you my smile
Would you give me yours
Run your finger along it
Touch your forehead to mine

If I gave you my hands
Would you give me yours
Hold them gently
Our fingers entwined

If I gave you my body
Would you give me yours
Wrap yourself around me
Till we can no longer be defined

If I gave you my heart
Would you give me yours
Love me with a passion
Of our own design

If I gave you my soul
Would you give me yours
Merge the light and dark of them
So we can't be confined

If I gave you my demons
Would you give me yours
Let them play together
In our strange minds

These are the Ifs that I ask of you...
I only hope you will answer me true.

I have a little present
for you today
it's green
and blue
and pink
and gray

it helps my insides
grow and sway

it helps my sadness
tiredness
and hopelessness
go away

I hope this gift
of a bright smile
and a deep eye-gaze
into your heart
will stay

...

just for today
anyway!
This is a poem I wrote thinking of a dear friend. :)

Boy just take it easy
Boy just take it slow
Please don't give up now
You have so much further to go

Put that gun down boy
Step away from the ledge
All the demons your fighting
Don't have to stay in your head

Let me help you boy
Let me be your light
You and I together boy
We'll give 'em a hell of a fight

This is it boy
It's time for war
With me by your side
It'll be easier than before

We got this boy
We won't back down
We'll take 'em all on
We'll knock 'em to the ground

Boy let's take it easy
Boy let's take it slow
All the demons you fight
Will no longer call you home

“stay low, go fast,

**** first, die last,

one shot, one ****,

no luck, all skill”

(Unofficial Navy Seal Slogan)

I stand at the graveside watching
as each person steps forward
to throw dirt on the coffin

I study each face closely
and marvel at all humanity
What is it about funerals
that causes all to attend?

And yet in a life well spent
not a visit, not even a scent
I laid down my life, as you see
laid it so they could be free

It must be a sense of duty
now they come to visit me
Oh- the hypocrisy of humanity!
And now another journey awaits me

I soar to meet passing clouds
caught in the upstream of wind
a final glance, and just by chance
I catch your eyes following me
