If we can restore vibrancy to color
stripping layers of time
to render art new
then can we lift sound particles
from memories
laid down decades before
dab a pen over words
slandering our hearts
eliminate critical noises
that chastise
til all we recognize
is a blank slate of static
where WE select
rhythm and pace     
            
compliments      feeding our lives' diorama  

                 beliefs              entangled    
                                    between      
                                              heartbeats

we become the artist
         the symphony playing remastered tunes

Stay Strong    
                                  You are Valuable
And, most importantly,

           You Deserve to be Loved
If we can challenge old thoughts that debilitate our efforts and rewind time's old cassette tape to the very beginning, what dreams might we record, what promises to ourselves might we keep?  BE KIND TO YOUR MIND

Shadow
The universe,
every cloud,
every flower,
every beautiful and ugly thing,
Want you to live your own life,
To carve your own path,
Even your ancestors
Want you to walk the path of freedom.
Be patient, and when the time is right free yourself of your chains.

Today I knew,
My forever was safe,
If anyone can hold it,
It's you.

Tsunami
Our talks of the sunset
Were poems themselves
i still think of us
years of being ignored

she swallowed her words
they piled up in her pit
and turned to poison
she wished she was a snake
the kind who could spit

and dissolve anyone
in her way
