unity of two souls

now a distant thought

dwindling in and out

my soul the clavier

your words the keys

almost like writing a play

as you strike that note

of hopes and desires

waiting to be inspired

all alone in the dark

yearning for a spark

to play that magic

song of the heart

two souls united

never to be apart

and I

need you now

My brush is a bird

that paints in red

loquacious and free

stroke by stroke

color comes out

captivating me

the dancing rain

on my fingertips

flick of my wrist

of secrets born

passions chiseled

in precious stone

lamina

crescent

fading away

rush of

emotions

becoming

undone

contour in

silence

reflecting

her tears

frozen in floe

as dusk

finds it’s

fervor

keeping

allure

bleeding

into

the night

as she gently

rephrase

her memoir

of love

painting all

the stars

she took

and in

the eyes

of truth

chasing

utopia

***

she’ll find

what is

near

CARPE DIEM

an epic smile

as fingers trace

the silhouette mind

past

aquatic streams

of her inner

shrine

perhaps the moon

was her only friend

wading through

murk

on arduous

wings

***

the rainforest

trembles

a lush

awakening

mirrors of time

a sacred space

as cosmos speaks

the

language of love

no more

to dwell

in life’s

shadowy past

you may find her

in the motley

shades

amongst

streaming glades

where she muses

to herself

***

and the dance

progress

Impressions of you

Posted in Closure, Daily Life, Death, Dreams, Emotions, Life, Memories, Pain, Passion, Personal, POETRY, Reflections, Spirituality with tags Death, love, memories, pain, passion, poem, reflections, Silence on June 22, 2015 by Mandy

silence

as mist drips

in strands

under her shaky

fingertips

drawn on the canvas

of their love

with flaming azure

from her veins

violent red passion

from her heart

in fragile lacuna

between breath

and muse

just listen

***

as she bleeds

into the night

with only

impressions

of him

Waiting for the light of day

lingering in spaces I can’t fill

innocence in time was lost

as I wait in patience

***

eternal stillness

A MOMENT IN TIME

Posted in Daily Life, Dreams, Emotions, Family, Friends, Life, Musings, People, Personal, Ramblings, Random, Reflections, Spirituality with tags blog, feelingsexpressing, paper, passion, pen, reading, writing on June 17, 2010 by Mandy

For years I have been contemplating on starting my own blog. For years I have also been putting it off…..thinking, why on earth would anyone want to read what I have to say? It’s been 3 months since I started this and it did not take long for this blog and I to fall in love. I find that the words flow so much easier here than having to write it down on pen/paper.

I write because I feel the need to write, it is a way of expressing myself, because I have something to say…..no matter how often I say it, why I say it and how it comes across. I write to get all my thoughts out and have learned something in the process about myself. So many of life’s experiences are bottled up inside of us and we file them in places that we don’t visit often enough.

I am growing as I write along the way and have met some amazing creative people …….people that have a passion for life, people with hidden treasures inside them. Life is but a moment in time. Thanks for reading my wonderful friends.oxo
