She was seven,
when the world first felt too big.
Too heavy,
like it was asking her to carry more than her small shoulders could bear.
In a world of poetry where words can bend,There's a special kind that's its own best friend.A palindrome poem, quite the quirky riddle,Reads the same backward, a laugh in the middle!
Creative Spirit,
Honest steps a hundred miles,
Stolen beauty filed,
Thieves by night, morning in exiled.
A Thousand hearts, in love, anew.
Silence, my loyal companion, enfolds mein the embrace of solitude’s sanctuary,where words dare not tread, forsaking her.With vacant eyes, she wields a brushand paints a portrait of the deity forlorn,narrating tales without the need for speech.In u
See Dark skin just mean more sun block,
it got absolutely nothing to do with 'Races'.
It Just means Your Ancestor,
lived in places closer to the Equator.
the Sun was stronger,
The fear of dying, a shadow that creeps,
A constant companion, in our hearts it sleeps.
It lurks within us, from birth till end,
A reminder of our mortality, an unwelcome friend.
The earth, our home, we take for granted We ravage and plunder, our greed is enhanced We pollute the air, we poison the seas We destroy the forests, with little ease
Love is the epitome of unconscious doubt.
Seeing me bare in my inadequacies unfolds me in the trepidation.
Whilst still containing my devoted love for you my anxieties torment my body.
The only love I know is fear.
Sob a forma de nuvens errantes,
Caminhamos ao nosso Réu:
Que sonhos tivestes, jovem pedante,
até que atirastes ao léu?
Gasping sounds
Bright force
Her desire burns like a fire
A thirst so strong it builds the desire
Her feet runs old from the cold night
Her hands run dry from non-discovery
She whispers her melodies in the early morning,
soft yet bold,
her blue green soul,
hypnotic and chaotic is the sea,
unyielding before me.
BETRAYAL POEM . 🗣
have you ever thought to yourself that you and a specific person might last forever.
but then all of a sudden you see a shift of change in their behavior, however.
I sit at my cafeteria table surrounded by many but feeling alone.
I look out upon the place that is supposed to be happy and fair, instead
I see girls that drink iced coffee for every meal,
i read between the lines on her wrists
and uncovered a story worth writing
i saw the first tear, caught the second and stopped the third from dropping
her red-rimmed eyes
held a suprise
a well kept secret;
...I Am the stone of Kindness dropped into the sea of Humanity creating an Eternal ripple effect of Good Vibes and Love.

Everybody is equal
No one is differnent
Due to color or race
We treat people equal
Love is Love
We smile when we see it
We all love, it is a guarantee
But it is up to you to believe
Pains nurge my eyes,Agony throbs my thighs,Affliction chokes my breast,Anxiety grips my chest. My head beats rhythmically,What can free me physically?These pains flog me brutally,Casually, I glide into misery. Being deprived of my feelings,I figh
I always forget the keys
Do you remember the picture
We took on beach,
Relics of sensual nights
Elegance of summer days
All is there in my drawer
But, I have lost the keys
Yeah i know it's you i won't react because there is nothing between us stranger we just looked at each other and cracked that stranger smile of us and left the place burning em up their are empty slots between us of brokenness or nothing else you
He touched me once.
Every bone in my body melted.
My figure, puddled around his feet.
I am yet to recover.

One Day One day It only takes one day to meet you and fall in love with Your beautiful
smile that illuminate a whole Country; you make ligth when there is darkness,
Smile to show pure joy
Smile to mask the weight placed on
your shoulders ...
Smile when you feel like the world is over
Getting up out of the mud washing off dry crusty dirt, cleansing my
mind and thoughts of all bitterness and all hurts...
I forgive you...
With the dreams in my mind,
I write, I think, and I fly...
Never wonder what's beyond the life..
Is it full of colours or dark, same as I shut the eyes..
Let me spill happiness on the
road leading to your soul
like spilled incense from a censer.
I.
Those shadows lingered hesitantly,
quivering across
the reflection confined
in that damned mirror.
I made you up
When I was a lonely kid,
You never talked to me
But you always listened,
When I was crying
You’d be there with me,
Green light at the end of my bed.
What am I almost dead?
Almost thirty to forty thinking about fifty,
Maybe will have a heart attack and still feel so empty
I can see you
but cannot be with you
I can go shopping
but i shouldn't cough
Oh, those plans you had
You'd better put them off
Is it really that bad?
dont forget, not to cough
Vibrant and Bright
May this color of pink soften you
Pink made of skin.
Pink made of salt.
Pink is when red is innocent from pain
Pink, like my cheeks when i write your name
My child,
The little comely baby that never stopped growing in me,
Can you endure the life of the other word?
Can you be patient enough to grow old?
My child, my hope,
That rage was meant to reveal the truth from behind those eyes open wide
He was stubborn and stood up for what he believed in
Even though he was a man now,his childishness was still a part of him
He looked like an angel sent from above
With those sparkling eyes,he seemed the true face of love
He was so wild but he had a beating heart
His savage way to live was like an only art
He was strong because he was forged in pain
Today he ruled because he never stopped when it rained
Even though it hurt,he was still holding on
Waiting for a day when all that suffering will be gone
Writing out my own words has shown me multitudes within myself.
I used to think finding oneself was a joke.
Until I ripped off the bandage and let me wounds breathe.
I want to be part of something better,
sail skies to unknown paradise
while finding love in bones
I call my own.
