waiting

love, poetry, transform, waiting, whole

I didn’t know that I had
empty spaces
that were waiting for you

open the door

Tags

anonymity, open door, roots, surrender, transformation

when you recognize that
sometimes
*anonymity*
does you a huge favor
and you also embrace that
*who you know*
and
*where you’ve been*
somehow
root you
(breathe)

well then,
I gather
my basket
is at least
*half full*

*integration*
*open the door*
*surrender*

glow

Tags

candle, change, growth, hope, lantern, light, poetry, transformation

i’m glowing
not like before
not like the bright lights
of fireworks

not like the constancy of
the bright moon or sun
or any of the celestial
lights.
that’s too grandiose.

not like a birthday candle
that’s full of surprises
and is waiting for you
to blow it out

and not like a
decorative candelabra
theres just
too much flickering

no.

its like a warm and steady glow
of a lantern
Like my heart is finally alight
and with an open chest
it is leading the way thru the dark

God, grace, poem, thankful, transform, wishes

I made a wish tonight
it was a dream forgotten
….
maybe you have one too.
maybe someone told you
to stop chasing it
and that it made no sense
or it had no value

but…

it gave you life!!
and wasn’t that the
most valuable gift?
and it was at your core
and it didn’t have to
COST a thing from you
but it was WORTH
ALL THE THINGS
because it was
YOURS.

and somehow…
you realize you are
SO VALUABLE
AND
SO LOVED
that you open your eyes
to see the new version
of the old
dream dream dream?
and it was there from
the beginning
and will be to the end.
and it was GIVEN
TO YOU FREELY.

this is amazing grace.
amazing grace.
let it go
let it be
let it be so

some kind of angel

angel, antiquity, love, poetry, transcend, warrior

I still think you are
some kind of angel
one of those warrior types
like in antiquity
with metallic armour
hanging over your shoulders
while I gawk in awe

I grabbed onto your shoulders
but couldnt hold on
because I’m mortal.
so into the sky
I soared in some kind of trance
over the patchwork hills
looking for more shiny things…

is this why they call it falling in love?
because i fell in love
as you flew away

like a flower

flower, love, poetry, remembering

you were like a flower

always making me smile
with your sweet messages
that were as vibrant as prisms
and
somehow sensually aromatic.
I loved watching you unfold.

and then,
you were gone.

wake up

fire, love, mystic, pathway, plasticity, poetry, transformation

it’s been awhile since I could
even let myself go there.
or here.

stop thinking.
stop looking.
stop feeling.

new pathways
override
the old.

but I’m drawn to nostalgia…

and there’s something about
the old paths…
like those low hanging branches
that create a mystic ambiance…

it evokes
it ignites
and wakes me the fuck up.

***remembering***

what we are made of

Tags

balloons, love, passion, poem, valentine

wishing you a happy Valentine’s day
the cuddly kind where
someone you love
gets to curl up
against you like a little kitty
purring

the surprising kind, too
where your room’s filled
with helium balloons
that you pop
one by one
and you’re showered
with flower petals

and mostly, the magical kind
where your soul
gets to connect
in bodily form
thru any of your senses
chocolates, wine, cheese,
passionate touches

because this is what we’re made of

a grey ride & inside joke

crayon, forgetit, getit, go, grey, joke, letitgo, life, living, poetry, riding, transformation, whale, whalerider

you know when you find that grey crayon ….
and you wonder,
how much life can i bring you?

everyone is always bitching about the grey areas.
they bitch about accepting them.
they bitch about understanding them.
they bitch about making them more distinctive….

maybe try whale watching, bitches.
grey: magnificent, beautiful, resilient, voyaging.
now that’s a ride.

did you see the movie “whale rider”? it’s fantastic.
pahahahahahhaha
sorry, inside joke.
