Silent is my pen
Words are flying around
Like humming bees
Moving the air
Like a light summer breeze
Playful and cheerful as butterflies
I am unable to catch them
Blank is the page in front of me
And perhaps
These words are not to be written
But only to be heard from within
And then I am the blank space
In which they create
Their own poetry
Without needing a pen, a page
Even without needing me

Blue Moon Super Moon
Let me bathe in your white glow
Light my shadows
Burn away the darkness
And I will dance on its ashes
With every fiber
Of my soul
Stars weave dreams
High up in the sky
I plant their seed
Here down into the earth
Blue Moon Super Moon
Moon of manifestation
Let your magic spark
Upon my heart’s desires
Blue Moon Super Moon
Ruler of the tides
Will you magnetize him
Back into my arms
©RoseGirl2018
Shaking rocks
Rolling thunder
This place here is not
to linger anymore
I am free falling
No mask that gives hold
A heart that is clothed in
Nakedness
Heaven will you catch me
Gravity will you lead me
into deeper grounds of faith
©RoseGirl2018
In the starry sky at night
In the light of the day
In the rays of rainbows
In de dawn and in the sunset
In still waters and in waves
In the songs I heard
The books I read
The movies I watched
In the eyes I met
Always
It was you
I looked for
Even long before I knew
©RoseGirl2018
Let me tell you
about Arcadia
A landscape as wide
as the eye
can reach
With clear blue skies
as high as the mind
can think
The land where
wild roses grow
Their hearts
always open
Fields of red, yellow
purple and green
Will you come to me
here in Arcadia
This space in between
Where veils to
other worlds are thin
And dreams are realer than real
Where words and sounds
are being created
Where songs originated
and poems spring
from within
And where everything
is just as perfect
as it may seem
Will you stay with me
here in Arcadia
As king and queen
in this palace
on fertile ground
This source of creation
Where life awakens
To eyes that truly
wish to see
©RoseGirl2018
How can love
ever be tough
As it not love that hurts
Love never hurts
Though you seek outside
And you then get wounded by
a mirage of your own
doubtful thoughts
Look within
and you will find
him, your beloved
In a heart that beats
love fearlessly
through your veins
In lungs that breathe
love unapologetically
in and out
In eyes that perceive
love in its purest form
As within so without
See him in the roses
that are still there
even though winter arrived
Feel him in the wind that strokes
your face
Hear him in a bird’s
joyful song at sunrise
And then tell me
if love is tough
©RoseGirl2018
Free spirit leap
Wings of trust will catch you
Set your heart free
into the unknown
Free spirit fly
Do not turn around
The wind is at your back
You are surrounded
by the open space of Now
No ‘what ifs’
No ‘buts’
No ‘only if’
No ties
No regrets
No holding back
When it comes to love
Then love
Love like the sun shines in an
unclouded sky
Love like the full moon lightens
up a dark night
Love like you’ve never loved
before
For the sake of love
Because you love
Because you can
Because you will
Free spirit
leap,
fly,
love
©RoseGirl2018
The clouds are ours
We color the sky
I paint with words
You paint with melodies
A sparkling symphony
of life and love
We make fire in the sky
The heavens are quaking
Hear the gods laughing
Apollo and Aphrodite
are at our side
We are cloud dancers
In heaven’s temple
in the realm of
Always and Everlasting
©RoseGirl2018
I’ve seen you before
So many times
The same gaze
The same eyes
A heart that rhymes
with mine
When I hold you dear
inside of me
Then how could I be
without you
The external is
nothing less than
The internal
mirror image
To know myself
Is to know you
©RoseGirl2018
What to do
with a love
that is too big
for a poem?
Should I adjust
the poem
Or should I make
the love fit?
No,
I’ll leave
the poem the poem
I’ll leave
the love the love
And then I’ll leave
you with it
©RoseGirl2018
Let my words
come close to you
They are my hands,
my lips,
my breath
They tenderly caress
your face
Embed you in
pink satin
A soft
whispering
on your skin
Just a few sweet words
for you
To taste me
To soothe you
To kiss
the bitterness
away
©RoseGirl2018
The day
I ran out of
words
was the day
I ran into
you
©RoseGirl2018
Today is a good day
to leave her shell of shyness
Today is a good day
to come out
of her comforting cocoon
She went down
into the depths of darkness
Where she allowed death
to free her
from the entanglement
in the nets of mind
As she was made
to reach up
into the heights
She stands on the leaf of a tree
Let her translucent wings be dried
by the touch of a new wind
Rising perfectly
into imperfection
Reborn
Renewed
Refreshed
One
more breath
One
more moment
of not yet
Before she spreads
her wings
And takes flight
Towards
Her
Monarch
©RoseGirl2018
Take my hand
and dance
with me
To the rhythm
of our breath
Move with me
within
The harmony
of our
heartbeat
Fire stirs up
Skin to skin
Chest to chest
Bodies
merge
No barriers
left
In this dance
of union
And we dance
and we dance
And find
Stillness
in movement
Silence
in sounds
Closeness
in distance
Emptiness
in fullness
You in me
And
me in you
And
We dance
And
We dance
In a dance
That
never
ends.
Take my hand
And dance
with me
©RoseGirl2018
You are covered in mist
My eyes cannot touch you
A fish out of water
That waits for spring tide
To be brought home
If you are the fish
Then I am the water
Or am I the mist
That covers you up?
©RoseGirl2018
Before the sun sets
Embark on my dreams
And sail with me
Towards undiscovered horizons
Ashore at deserted islands
Our love innocent and pure
As the first steps
on new land
Let us find a safe haven
In the world of make believe
We reinvent
the stories
Cocreate
what is ahead of us
Turn
the wheel of the year
Because if all falls apart
And the water is troubled
We’ll still have
this ship of our dreams
©RoseGirl2018
I wish you could see
The beauty of the roses
in the backyard
Even though
Your eyes might not see
them no more,
They keep on
blossoming
Roses
Untouched
by what once happened
between two hearts
That were afraid
of the thorns
Seen by my eyes
Their colour of deep pink red
Their seductive scent
That caress
the air
I breathe
Rose petals wide open
to receive
The light of your eyes
once more
Do you see
through my eyes
How much they have grown?
©RoseGirl2017
The river at my feet
Water in motion
A story unfolding
Words give me wings
To see things
from above like flying
birds see
The water underneath
Just a simple love story
That flows through time
and space
About a man and
a woman,
A match made in heaven,
That came
across the rocks in the river
on earth
Though whatever happened
And wherever it may go
It is not the end yet
Water continues
to flow
Adam and Eve
Romeo and Juliet
All that came before
Whatever has been told
about them,
Whatever may be written
Their love beyond the story
can’t be caught
in words
©RoseGirl2017
A brighter light
For two flames
That shine
As one
Never apart
For a heart
That is whole
For the love
That is real
It is all
That is
Dreamt of
©RoseGirl2017
I float in my own ocean
An endless space
of peace
and love
Carried by the waves
Water that is deep
and calm
And I am filled with grace
Though then the thoughts arise:
‘What if the storm is real
and this is just a dream’
‘What if dark clouds will push the sun away’
‘What if the waters will be rough again
And I will sink in deep’
My fears arise and make
Ripples in the water
On the surface
Of my ocean
Then I hear
a voice from within:
‘It is up to you
Do you let the sharks come in
Do you make
them appear
or disappear’
I choose.
I fall back in my own ocean
This endless space
of peace
and love
Carried by the waves
Water that is deep
and calm
And no sharks any near
©RoseGirl2017
I didn’t look
for love
Though love found me
And put
a fire in my soul
I didn’t know
That I have always known
You
The mirror of
my soul
I fall down on my knees
in this holy house of love
Truth is blissful
Blessed and grateful
As veils of illusions
are pulled aside
I say a prayer
of naked words
My heart is a lighthouse
That brightly shines its light
So that you can find
your way home
To love
you
is the closest thing
to God
©RoseGirl2017
Words
keep silent
As your eyes tell
In a thousand ways
About all the shades
of love
Those eyes know more
than
any man,
any woman,
any word
could tell
©RoseGirl2017
And I walked
along the coastline
Dreamt of
the other side
of the shore
Drew a heart
in the sand
Then the waves
took the heart
away
Now the sand
is just the sand
Though the ocean
holds the treasure
of the land
And takes it
all the way
to the other side
of the shore
That’s
where my heart is
©RoseGirl2017
When it is quiet at night
The world is asleep
and it’s dark all around
You lighten my dreams
You’re on
this song
of my heart
A fountain of sounds
that tenderly
caress
the silence
A playful melody
Orchestrated
by God’s angels
And on this journey
towards the dawn
I hold the light
inside
This song
of my heart
©RoseGirl2017
I believe
in a sun
that can turn
the land into gold
In white birds
that emerge
from the fog
In flowers
that arise
from the mud
In harmony
that can be heard
within chaos
In stars
that align
to what is destined
to be one
And put into place
what has fallen apart
How I believe
in us
©RoseGirl2017
I could love
the stars out of heaven,
the moon out of the night’s sky
You’re my always love
My in all ways love
That is beloved
forever
and beyond
©RoseGirl2017
Here on top of the world
on top of the love
All is liquid
All is one
There is
no me
no you
Only an us
that holds the world
©RoseGirl2017
Words dance, sing
in front of me
Pure magic melts
into a verse
You’re like poetry
that writes itself
©RoseGirl2017
Is it true
that today
heaven’s blue looks
even bluer than blue?
And the houses of white
are brighter than bright?
People who pass by
give me their smile
And palm trees
of greenest green
wave excitedly at me
Doves do a love dance
Then go up into the sky
I let me,
let you go
Birds just need
to fly
©RoseGirl2017
Let’s get lost
in the tales of
this town
Let’s get lost
in the maze of
our hearts,
In the space
outside
the map
Without anything to expect
We’ll be surprised
all the time
So let’s get lost
in the streets of
this town
In your arms
I want to be found
©RoseGirl2017
Maybe there was
never a time
And we always were
No time without us
Forever we are
now
As we ride our love
Through the portal of
Infinity
©RoseGirl2017
I almost run
Here
In these streets
My footsteps lighter
than
A feather
Moved by the wind
I am
Driven by the rhythm
Of you
whispering
into
my being
Here
For every of
my steps
I take two
As I run
for us both
not even the rain
can catch me
©RoseGirl2017
The Fall falls down
Heavy on my shoulders
Harvest moon that shines
Upon the lovers’ souls
Blessed is the Autumn wind
That takes us far from here
And blows us
into the comfort of our dreams
Soon you will leave this land
Like the leaves leave the tree
Though there is no goodbye
Always a welcome
To the one I hold dear
And we both know
Winter will knock at our doors
Cold will push us inside
But then let us warm us
With the promise of Spring
©RoseGirl2017
I asked the blackbird
To fly over to you
And sing you
The song of my heart
I asked the clouds
To drift towards you
To show you
The shape of my heart
So you will know
©RoseGirl2017
I love you
You love me
And
all the rest
is just
crap
©RoseGirl2017
I am on the other side of the river bank
And I hold my cup of love
up high
Precious nectar of the heart
that flows
Shimmering divine
I’d like to offer it to you
But I came from far
and I’m so tired and thirsty
now
So let me drink it first
Then please choose
If you’d like to drink
from this sacred cup of mine
If your heart is open
to receive
‘Cause this cup of deepest love
is for the braves
Who are willing to lose
everything they once believed in
And maybe
You too would like to share
your cup with me
And unblind me
with your truth
We only have a bridge to cross
So let us meet halfway
Let us be drunk by love
Drunk by our truth
©RoseGirl2017
The heavens open up
I flow with the water
Tears merge with raindrops
You’re so close
Though I cannot touch you
I see you within
Though you’re not here
Wounds are aching
A heart is moving
I am whirling around
With the wind
I ground myself in love
Earth myself in heaven
And in the eye of the storm
I am at peace
©RoseGirl2017
Wherever you are
Just look at the sky
And you will find me
The sun crosses worlds
The moon lightens shadows
Stars foresee
What we may not see
When heaven meets earth
Just look up
From wherever you are
All my wishes are out there
Stardust
will rain on us
If you only just believe
Wherever you are
Wherever I am
Look into you
I look into me
And we will find
our universe
©RoseGirl2017
If we could erase
The words
And embrace
The unspoken
If we could
Unwrite
And untell
The story of us
If we could fly
Out of the lines
And not even name
The love
Then we would stay
In the blank open space
Of
Once there was
Just you and
Just me
©RoseGirl2017
I tried to grasp you
with my mind
Unlock you
With my thoughts
Tried to
Describe you
Unfold you
Unwind you
Define the divine you
But what exists
beyond the concept
Flying free
within the heart
Cannot be understood
©RoseGirl2017
Leaves fall down
The wind gives wings
And
gently brings
them to the ground
The tree
That stands
Firmly rooted
in the earth
Branches reach
Up into the sky
Moved
By the rhythm
Of the seasons
If she were a tree
Then he would be her sun
Rays of purest light
Would feed her
She would blossom
Bear the fruits with pride
And then
let them go,
let them fly down
with the wind,
merge with the earth
And let it again
feed her
©RoseGirl2017
Now the storm is raging
And lightning splits
The dark sky
Wild dreams hunt
The ones
Who are without sleep
I have my cave
To shelter
The pole star
to guide me
A fire
to warm me
In this cold night
And I wait
the storm
To pass
The sun to rise
Free are the ones
Who embrace
Whatever may come
What else could
I do
What more would
Be left
Now
Than fiercely
And fearlessly
Loving you
©RoseGirl2017
It is no longer
What it looks
like
Since I’ve looked
You in your eyes
I am no longer
Who I was
Since I have been seen
By you
I caught a glimpse
Of who I could be
A promise
Of heaven
In your eyes
I saw me
reflected in you
©RoseGirl2017
An invisible thread
connects
me to you
No matter how
hard I try to deny
How far I walk
High I fly
Deep I sink
It always pulls me back
To you
A heart that is tied
To an undeniable truth
©RoseGirl2017
