In the absence of words
in the silence of the evening
when the sun has not yet set
but outside rain falls
and dark clouds gather
so much is being said
between two hearts
that connect over distance
through love

©RoseGirl2020

Behind the eyes
where there are no boundaries
to those who see with the heart
where the mind is free
and we can go anywhere
and do anything
there, we see all
there, we always meet

©RoseGirl2020

I lay a hand on my heart
to feel the rhythm
of what is guiding me
to feel the movement of love,
touchable in my hand
To feel you
like music, like truth
like a feeling, a presence

And I cross skies,
oceans and time
as I let love expand
and hold you, hold us
in the radiance of my heart

©RoseGirl2020

And at night when the stars
start to shine
to weave their web of dreams
around me
and I look up to catch them
with my eyes,
my heart starts to yearn
for you even more
as if it reads
all our wishes, the prayers,
the story of fate written
on the starry ceiling

©RoseGirl2020

Whenever I drown
in my own cried river
of pain and sadness
it’s always the strong
thread of our bond,
the hand of love
that pulls me out

©RoseGirl2020

Some dates, some ache
some words
come back
in our awareness
to remind us
we have a love so great
that its light can heal time
can heal pain
and can rewrite words

©RoseGirl2020

There’s nothing
my eyes
long more for
than to dive deep
into yours

©RoseGirl2020

And if I would let pain write now
it would write a starless night
of fear
in which I can’t see, I’m not seen
A dark universe in which
I’m not even small
but nobody, nothing at all
It would write a flower
that doesn’t fit the field
that has the wrong colours,
and makes the wrong movements
in the wind

But if I would let love write now
it would write the sun and moon
together high above in the sky
The sun that shines upon the moon
to get her through the night
It would write a flower that fits
the heavens
and that perfectly fits love

©RoseGirl2020

Often, I’m the outsider
who observes,
sees deep
and like a cat,
walks her own path
outside the mass
Lucky though
to always be
inside your heart

©RoseGirl2020

My feet dance
My body moves
My lips smile
Just because
all the way from
across the ocean
they hear the music
of love

©RoseGirl2020

And if the noise
of the world,
the noise of our mind
gets loud,
we let the voice
of love sing
even louder

©RoseGirl2020

Oceans apart
A distance of
5000 miles
only showed
how close
you really are
to me

©RoseGirl2020

And if the night comes
with little sleep again
with fears that rise
dark and painful
with migraines
and thoughts that turn
themselves against me
will you shine your sun
to me
from your side of the world
to illuminate my night
and keep me safe and well
in the arms of love
so I can dream

©RoseGirl2020

A love poem came to me
but before I could grasp it
and bring it onto paper
it flew away
like a butterfly
but I don’t need
to chase to catch it
for nevertheless,
the butterfly will find
its way to you

©RoseGirl2020

You are so deep in me
where feelings run
deeper than oceans
where love resides
innocent and pure
where truth and wisdom guide
where you and me
are liquid and flowing
without skin, without borders
in an infinite embrace
There in the deepest
of my core
you have your home

©RoseGirl2020

Since the day I was born
I’ve always wished for you
All those nights
when I lay alone
in my bed
and stared shooting stars
upon the ceiling
my deep longing
already knew
about you

©RoseGirl2020

I don’t believe
anything
but love

©RoseGirl2020

Bittersweet is the feeling
of missing you
Pain mixed
with the taste of
how much
you mean to me

©RoseGirl2020

It’s about something and nothing
it’s about everything
It’s about life, here and now
and eternity
It’s about fireworks in the sky
shooting stars and the whole
universe
you in me
body, heart, mind, soul
entwine, dance, merge
when it all comes together
It’s about divine bliss

©RoseGirl2020

I can cross thousands of miles,
an ocean, the whole world
in an instant
I can turn on the sun
in a cloudy sky
and make stars twinkle
at night
I can make mountains move
I can make walls break
and fly
I can become a fairy,
a queen
then you’ll be my king
Everywhere I can make
dance floors
and palaces appear
for that’s just the magic
of loving you

©RoseGirl2020

I have never seen so many lies
in the world as I see now
But it makes me even more realize
what is real, what is pure and true:
our love

©RoseGirl2020

My love, so many poems
are still waiting to be born
in the light of your eyes
to be caught by your heart
But know that
we don’t even need
those written poems
as every time my heart beats
every time I breathe
I already make
a love poem for you

©RoseGirl2020

And we are
face to face
heart to heart
your eyes look
into mine
as a strong wind
blows around us
turning everything
upside down
just to make it all
fall into place
as it is meant to be
My hands in yours
Our feet rooted
like trees in love
See how strong we are
together
And then maybe
we are the wind
The wind of change

©RoseGirl2020

I’ve seen many things fall
Rain poured down
Tears fell hard
Beliefs collapsed
Connections broke
Curtains dropped
and even my own feet
stumbled
many times I fell
But the only thing
that keeps rising
is our love

©RoseGirl2020

Today I don’t
have much
to say to you
though I do have
a lot to feel
with you

©RoseGirl2020

Our love journey
is like a never ending
piece of music
Even in the interlude
when it may seem like
there’s not much going on
we still hear
the timeless echo
of our heart song
and we can already hear
new eager notes desiring
for an even better part
to come

©RoseGirl2020

Sometimes I feel
such a stranger
Nowhere at home
in the world
but with you
in our love

©RoseGirl2020

When the things around us
are overwhelming
and it’s all too much
Let’s make it a little
by pulling down the blinds
of the window to the world

by little kisses,
a little dance
a little movement,
a little music
and much,
so much love

©RoseGirl2020

If I stand up alone
in a crowd
for what I believe
is right
and people cannot see and hear
my underlying message
of unity, understanding
and love
will you stand by my side
do you hear and see
’cause sometimes,
it’s just so lonely
to be in a crowd

©RoseGirl2020

And we breathe together
and make cleansing ocean waves
roll through our mind and body
as we breathe in
love and faith
and breathe out
fear and pain

©RoseGirl2020

If I stumble and fall
in my clumsy attempts
to just be myself
and to do good
for you, for me, for us

If I stumble on
negative thoughts
and harsh judgements
about myself
with one leg
in the old story
and with the other
in the new

Will you reach out your arm,
your hand, your heart
and will you catch me

©RoseGirl2020

When all has collapsed
all that is left
is hope
To see nothing
and to yet see it all

Even when the mind
doubts and fears
To have the vision,
the remembrance,
the knowing
of true love
inside the heart
And then to
wholeheartedly believe

©RoseGirl2020

Union is not found
on lower grounds
in distance, in miles
in narratives
in fear, blame, guilt
suffering and shame

But union is found
in the truth of our hearts
It’s you in me and me in you
It’s to look up and rise above
the lies and the illusion
of separation
and to see just one sky,
one love
and an always, eternal ‘us’

©RoseGirl2020

She:

I wish we could have celebrated
this day together
But on your side of the world,
you have the happy blue skies
to look at
Whereas here around me
I don’t see anyone,
I don’t see anything
all around me is so dense and dark

He:

You look at the wrong place
Instead, look inside your heart
There, all you will see is light
all you’ll see is the vastness of love
for there, I’ve painted blue skies
for us both

©RoseGirl2020

When the heart
is deeply painfully
squeezed
by the hand of
panicking
ego narratives,
still the juice
that flows out of it
is love

©RoseGirl2020

You were and you are
always in my poems
in the ones once dreamt
long before we met
in the ones written
and unwritten
for my words have always
sought you

©RoseGirl2020

Sing away the clouds
in my mind
Sing the sun
into the vast sky
of my heart
Let me look into your eyes
as I need new horizons
to look at
To focus only on me, on you
and on love
Away from the dense
world outside
to find the whole universe
within us

©RoseGirl2020

In fact, I’ve never stopped
to write you
even after my last
sentence on paper
I continued to write
you my stories,
my feelings, my thoughts,
my love
on the infinite pages
of your heart

©RoseGirl2020

Where are you,
screams my mind,
scream my eyes
screams my body,
scream my tears

He’s right here,
sings my heart
sings my soul
sings love

©RoseGirl2020

And now the night
has covered your side of the world
with darkness
and you lay down your head
to fall asleep
I watch over you while I bathe
here in daylight
I send loving thoughts
as soothing kisses
I write poetry
to weave you a blanket
that keeps you safe and warm
And with the pencil of my heart
I draw you images
so you have something sweet
and colourful to dream about

©RoseGirl2020

I have your photograph
always with me
for you’re portrayed
on every side of my heart

©RoseGirl2020
