She admired the bird flying free
The rooted tree
Yet she knew she wouldn’t want to be
Anything other than herself
To her
She was just enough
Enough

Reincarnation
We are pieces
The big bang had left
Same atoms
Finding new ways of expression
And they called it reincarnation
Then the meaning was lost
Thief
I’ve learned to become a thief
Stealing time
Rearranging their reality
To better fit mine
Shattering glass that claimed to be a mirror
Redefining truths
For all to see clearer
That I was taking back what was mine
That no one is allowed to steal my time
Any longer
Fig Tree
The fig tree by the house with no backyard
Always welcomed me
It was comforting and warm
Teaching me
A child I was
Not knowing death nor life
It taught me eternity
The fig tree in my grandmother’s house
Will always live within me
Slipping
Time is slipping away
And I hoped you would stay
But I’ll be slipping too
I wished you well
I wished you good
I’ve done all I know I could
But time
Is my enemy and time is my friend
I wished I could see it till the end
But time is slipping away
And I will be slipping too
Self Love
Don’t forget to nurture your soul
…
You lost your pieces
Those that made you, you
And now you wander
Forgetting what you loved
To do
Worth
I confused my soul
With my body
My degree with my intellect
My riches with my clothes
And I let my ego decide
What I was worth
Mother’s Love
She said she wasn’t hungry
Good Bye
The things that could never fit within a bag, are the things I desperately wanted to pack
💛
My Heart
I’ve relied on the sun to shine
The moon to come back
The stars to glow
The trees to grow
But
Each had a cycle and a rhythm
They didn’t know
How fast I want to keep on running
So my heart
I’ll have to start
With you
