Pablo Neruda
Have not yet found a poem that touched me so deeply as this one: And it was at that age … Poetry arrived in search of me. I don’t know, I don’t know where it came from, from winter or a river. I don’t know how or when, no they were not voices, they were not words, nor silence, but from a street I was summoned, from the branches of night, abruptly from the others, among violent fires or returning alone, there I was without a face and it touched me. I did not know what to say, my mouth had no way with names, my eyes were blind, and something started in my soul, fever or forgotten wings, and I made my own way, deciphering that fire, and I wrote the first faint line, faint, without substance, pure nonsense, pure wisdom of someone who knows nothing, and suddenly I saw the heavens unfastened and open, planets, palpitating plantations, shadow perforated, riddled with arrows, fire and flowers, the winding night, the universe. And I, infinitesimal being, drunk with the great starry void, likeness, image of mystery, felt myself a pure part of the abyss, I wheeled with the stars, my heart broke loose on the wind.

Love isn't Dead. People Are.
Swimming through the air, Filled in your memories... I never thought I'd come this far, too ashamed to come back here again... a part of me, too scared to dig into the memories that you're part of.. Memories that were once too painful.. I was wrong. A place I never thought would be my... read more

Chasing
We seek that which is out of reach Chasing our dreams Instead of learning what life would teach Unthreading our seams We ignore the gifts in from of us Chasing our loss Looking back and making a fuss Our vision gloss We want to fix it, mend it, grasp that which isn't ours. We ignore, neglect,... read more

Just Like A Tattoo
Ink etched deep, a tale unseen, Each line a story, a silent dream. Steadfast, it stays, through joy and sorrow, A mark of time, today and tomorrow. In every stroke, a memory's hue, A whisper of love, a shade of blue. Just like a tattoo, it lingers on skin, A canvas of life, where stories... read more
