I’ve already loved you
countless days,
countless months and years
Ever since our hearts made
a Big Bang together
Even before I met you
And before I knew

I’ve already loved you
since the dawn of time
and long before
Even before the concept
of ‘forever’ was first used

A sigh of your heart,
a wind blown to me
I sense a soft breeze on my cheek
A warm breath on my lips
that sensually touches
and opens them
I sigh

A sigh of my heart
Do you sense
that soft breeze on your cheek
And then
How it reaches your lips
and kisses them

©RoseGirl2019

The visions we have of the future
The dreams we dream of togetherness
So real, so tangible
Like it has already happened
The story that has been written
We have seen it
from the first time that we met
when we looked
in each other’s eyes
and saw the happy end
That’s where it started

©RoseGirl2019

It’s not only that
you are my beloved,
just my lover of always,
of any dimension,
of any time and space
But above all
you’re my every day and
down to earth best friend,
my heart’s best mate

©RoseGirl2019

I look around and wonder,
Apart from the love, is this all real?
I came here once with you together
When we both had stars in our eyes
And new dreams on our minds
But I chased the rabbit into his hole
I cannot see you no more
And now I’m all alone
and lost in Wonderland

©RoseGirl2019

When I am so much lost
And even my words can’t find
their sentences
When each step without you here
feels sad and heavy
And all around me I see dark wilderness,
Then move me, my muse,
back into my poetry
Light me up with your love
so I can find myself

©RoseGirl2019

The morning sun shines upon
my tears
and makes golden drops of them
They vaporize one by one
in the light
What is left is a salty layer
of ‘I miss you’ on my cheeks

©RoseGirl2019

Wherever we are, whatever we do
Even if I fly in the air
like a smooth melody
And you wander on the ground,
you feel like in a staccato
Even if you surf the waves
and I am underwater
Even if you chase the moon
And I haunt the sun
Even if you are in the dark
of the night
And I am in the light of the day
We are together always
in art and heart

©RoseGirl2019

What defines me is not
what others think of me
Not even what I think of myself
But what defines me is my heart,
my soul, my art, my poetry
And my boundless, undefined
love for you

©RoseGirl2019

There is no corner in my heart
No place in this world
No spot in the universe
Where I don’t love you
So wherever you may go
Everywhere you are loved

©RoseGirl2019

I fly in the air like a kite
the strings that are tied
to my heart, my body,
my soul, my mind
you pull them, you crave them
closer and closer to your heart,
from heaven and the realm of dreams
to the tangibility of earth
And willingly and full of desire
I let you pull me in
As I cannot wait to land onto you

©RoseGirl2019

There’s so much going on
in the ether
Where the air is thin
And no lines are drawn
Where all is fluid,
energy flows and fizzes
Messages are sent and
received
through the ether

I can almost feel your breath
And touch your skin
Fervent thoughts
dance back and forth
between us
Your voice in my mind
sounds like music

And from within you kiss me
Warm airwaves move
strongly through me
as our hearts make love
in the ether

©RoseGirl2019

Sometimes, the ocean between us
is a big gap
A cruel dark blue monster
that has teared apart our lands
And we both stand on our shores
I call out for you
Your name, I shout it in the wind
Do you hear me or do the waves
make too much noise?

Please, let’s not look at the sea
But let’s focus on the sky
Our wings of love have grown
strong enough
to go up and meet above the clouds

©RoseGirl2019

I read back some old letters
that I once sent to you
How I danced before your eyes
in my words
Did you know back then
that it was you who had put
the music on
Did you know I danced
solely for you
And that in fact, in every letter
I invited you implicitly
hidden behind strong
but shy words,
to dance together with me

©RoseGirl2019

You sit on your throne in my words,
and make glitter and glamour of them
You rule their tides,
their melodies and rhymes

Without you my poetry
would be just an empty,
run-down palace,
a trove without treasure

For a kingdom needs its king
Just like my poetry gives
you the crown on your head

©RoseGirl2019

Others may see and read
and may devour my lines
and be greedy for more
They may be enticed
But my words are like arrows
and I point them
always exclusively
at your heart

©RoseGirl2019

Love drips from my words
as I dipped them one by one
in this delicious fluid
Touch it with your finger
Stroke around the letters
Lick it with your tongue
Suck it with your lips
Let its sweetness
explode in your mouth
And taste with your heart
all my precious love for you

©RoseGirl2019

If I get off track
and get lost in my fears and thoughts
Can you please pull me back
and throw me a line
By a prayer, a song,
By a kiss blown in the wind
By a wave of love you send my way
By the thought of me
Just pull me on my heart string
Back on track and back to you

©RoseGirl2019

Since I met you my heart has
opened up and expanded
by more than a thousand times
to be able to hold all the
love I have for you
In this big balloon of love
I carry you always with me inside

©RoseGirl2019

Sparrow and robin,
sitting there on the branches
Cats that are lying in my garden
Bees on the flowers
Butterflies that are fluttering
before my eyes,
My kindred spirits,
You my beloved,
Do you want to be my family,
my true tribe
To which I can belong?

©RoseGirl2019

The more I think of you
The more I feel you
The more I love you
The more I think of you
The more I feel you
The more I love you

©RoseGirl2019

Where are we, my love
Did the light catch us
When we held hands
I looked at you
You said ‘yes now’
And we jumped
together
into the unknown

I see white all around us
Like a blank page
on which a new story
is eager to start
And its main characters
just both came alive

©RoseGirl2019

They say time is a great healer
As it gradually fades out strong feelings
And polishes sharp edges
But how come every day
I only miss you more

This heavy ‘I miss you’
that even creeps into my pen
And makes me unable to lift it
and to write

©RoseGirl2019

At the end of the day
I walk in our garden of love
with a watering can
full of thoughts, songs and poetry

And I do not want to water
the weeds of fear, of doubt
and confusion
But I water and nurture
the flowers of love and hope

What you give your attention to
grows
What we focus on we get more of

©RoseGirl2019

If we can’t see the whole picture
As half is hidden and not shown to us
If there’s a curtain of fog,
an incomplete puzzle
And we hold single pieces
in our hand
We can only have faith and trust
There’s a divine plan behind everything
It’s all being sorted out from above

©RoseGirl2019

Think of an ocean
Think it as big as you can
And then imagine it even larger
Think of the depth of the water
How endless deep it goes
Its clear blue that reflects the light
Think of all the treasures
that the ocean holds underwater
The coral, all the diamonds
In the most beautiful colours
And then think of this ocean
as my love for you

©RoseGirl2019

At times longing comes
in a wave that rises
Water that takes and pulls me
wildly to your shore

And sometimes it is a fire
within me
A burning desire
My body that wants to
feel and touch yours

Sometimes the longing
is solid like earth
Grounded in knowing
that you are mine

And at times longing
is subtle like air
it takes me high up
and let me dream
on my cloud

©RoseGirl2019

I am your moon tonight
And shine my love over you
My soft silver light shimmers
in your waters
And touches your depths
Just lay down silently
and bathe in my glow
Let it infuse you
And feel how we merge
from inside

©RoseGirl2019

And the lioness walks alone
on her path through the savannah
of life
As she doesn’t want to be held
hostage by other people’s belief systems
But she chooses freedom instead
and to honour and stand for the truth
within her
She knows that it means at times
you need to move away
and walk in solitude

But look, lioness, look around you
How the sun smiles, how the birds sing for you, how the trees bow
Your beloved walks with you in heart always
How the whole universe conspires
to support you
For the bravest of soul are those
who choose love over and over

©RoseGirl2019

Instead of ‘I miss you’
They say ‘Tu me manques’ in French
which means:
‘You are missing from me’

You are missing from my arms, my love
You are missing from my eyes
You are missing from my skin
I’m incomplete without you
You make my eyes see
You make my arms filled
My skin sense
My soul whole

Tu me manques, mon chéri
For you are never missing from my heart
