The world was turned
upside down
I floated in the dark
But the stars that we saw
when we met
are still where they are

Poetic Art From The Heart ~ Finding Beauty In Truth
The world was turned
upside down
I floated in the dark
But the stars that we saw
when we met
are still where they are

My body
was in the hospital bed
but I didn’t know
where I was
Words were too much
Legs couldn’t carry me
I didn’t remember
Eyes were closed
most of the time
but when I opened
them
I looked through the window
and saw a tree
with a bird in there
Leaves moved
the bird moved
I didn’t move
Still, like dead
Days passed
I didn’t know
I floated away
out of time
but always back
to the tree
to see the bird
Was it you, my love
that had flown
across the ocean
to keep me alive

And it was dark before my eyes
no memory, no history
without a story all that was left
within
was the light, the moment
that opened
the heart to love
To be reborn
in innocence
in the light of Christmas

*I wrote this poem in response to my stay in the ICU/ hospital and the recovery process I’m still in:
I’ve been absent for quite a while on my blog because I was very ill and was in the ICU. However, I don’t know anything about it as I was unconscious. At first, when I came back, I didn’t know who I was anymore and lost my memories. Luckily, those are coming back.
It’s still a rollercoaster and I need a lot of rest and care but at least and Thank God! I’m able to write again.
The Unfinished Story
Life was eclipsed
darkness covered the eyes
-I can’t even see
myself no more,
memories buried
mind, body gone
into nowhere land,
But then destiny,
the unfinished story
of you and me
sends me its sun
