My Beloved

This poem that I wrote is an ode to my twin flame, my anima gemella, who is out there somewhere…

My Beloved

my beloved
i already know you
because you reside
in my own heart

my beloved
i already know your face
because you wear my own face
you are the mirror
of my own soul

my beloved
i already know your touch
because it is the way i touch
with fingers alive with love

my beloved
i already know the sound of your voice
because it is my own voice
that sings a song of such joy

my beloved
i already know you are here
because it is in this Now
that we are meant to be as One

my beloved
i already am with you
because you are my most beloved
and i am your most beloved

my beloved.

Stay Awhile

stay awhile
in this hearth  and home
this heart place
we created

the place of sunshine and smiles
my soft touch on the back of your neck
your fingers gliding across my lips
the pillowfight we had that left
feathers peeking out from the oddest places
the comfortable silence sitting between us
because we knew each other
even without speaking

stay awhile
and tell me a story
about your life
before me
any tale
of funny things
of sad moments
of past love savoured
of dreams in the night
of the little hopes you told no one about
of the silly and strange in any thing

stay awhile
and stretch your body out next to mine
and let us warm ourselves
through each other’s warmth

stay awhile
with
me.

Pieces of Me

picking up the pieces
and putting them down again
picking up the pieces
and putting them down again

how do i begin again?
where do i begin again?
why do i begin again?

my life is filled with questions
and right when i finally
line up the answers to fit
someone changes the questions again

there are so many people
who never need to question
there are so many people
who know where they’re going
there are so many people
who never hunger for more
there are so many people
who say it’s enough
and it’s better the evil that you know

the questions haunt me in so many ways

when i sleep
they infiltrate my dreams
when i can’t sleep
they invade my mind

i want

all i know is that i want

nothing complicated
nothing rich

just that elusive inner peace
for more than a fleeting moment

i want
oh how i want
and this wanting never ends

i want
to pick up the pieces
for the last time.

My Forever Love

I wrote this poem about the most beautiful love I have experienced in my life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Forever Love

Love, i have found you and lost you
and found you again

the moments when you filled my heart
i counted myself as blessed

what a treasure a simple gesture can be
when a man takes your hand in his
without saying a word

and you just walk together
and you are filled with a sense of being filled
to the brim with joy a joy so pure
it almost breaks your heart
with its breath-taking simplicity

The love which is the purest love
when you give and give and give all of yourself
and someone gives you
the gift of receiving your love

with no judgements
with no valuation

just with acceptance
and quiet being

How to measure such a moment?
How to treasure such a moment?

The only thing to do is to go
run with it and savour it
and taste it until the very last drop
because who knows if we will have tomorrow
who knows what will happen
when life can turn on a dime
and there are no answers

So love
i thank you for coming into my life
for the gift of the priceless treasure
thank you for taking my heart and my breath away
and for filling me with your pure white bright light

My love
My forever love.
