There are nights
that I almost don’t want
to fall asleep
I don’t want to drift away
as I feel you so close
as if you are here
Those nights that I prefer
to daydream

Poetic Art From The Heart ~ Finding Beauty In Truth
There are nights
that I almost don’t want
to fall asleep
I don’t want to drift away
as I feel you so close
as if you are here
Those nights that I prefer
to daydream

At a high frequency
that only we can hear
we whisper non-stop
love messages into
each other’s heart

Trees don’t grow strong
from only sunshine
But they grow strong
from fierce winds
and heavy rainfall
when they’re being shaken
to the core
and need to let go
of branches and leaves
When there are obstacles
underground
that force their roots
to discover new ways
And they may still carry
the scars
from the storms they endured,
testimonials of strength
As they only grew strong
because of the challenges
they faced
©RoseGirl2020
And outside I let the storm
blow through me
Wind that feels like fire
when I think of you
and I dance with it, I whirl,
I float and I fly
until I become the storm
that makes the land
and the water move
that makes the flames
rise high
by the power of love
©RoseGirl2020
Clouds float wildly through
the sky this morning
Accompanied by the noise
of un upcoming storm
Trees move their branches
wildly back and forth
And the river throws its water wildly
over the banks and the quay
Such wild thoughts
wild dreams
a wild heart and wild love
Such a wild dance to
dance with you today

The moon,
at night she bathes
in the light of the sun
His rays that stroke
like fingers over her
She receives
and absorbs his heat
as she sighs with delight
and she glows
high and full

I keep my head cool
my heart hot
my feet danced
my eyes focused
my soul written in
love poems
for you
©RoseGirl2020
We have you
We have me
We have love
©RoseGirl2020
The moon shines brightly on me
through the bedroom window
and before I go to sleep
and close the curtains
I write you one more poem
not meant for the public eye
but for your eyes, for your heart only
Therefore, I’ve encrypted it
with moonlight
©RoseGirl2020
I’ve listened to your heart
how it sings with pure poetry
and now I write it out to you
so you will always
remember the beauty
of your heart’s sung poems

That Summer in Zundert
the center of the universe
was in that small village
in the south of the Netherlands
when outer space
was found in the deep gaze
of your eyes

I have several
coping mechanisms
to deal with
the challenges in life
To help myself through
every day I meditate, I do yoga,
I pray, I sing, I dance, I write
But by far, my favourite
coping mechanism
is to love you
©RoseGirl2020
And even though in your sky
shines the sun now
and in my sky glows the moon
and it may look like a difference
between day and night,
light and dark
and miles apart
our love transcends both worlds
©RoseGirl2020
Love has never been
just a four letter word
But instead, it consists
of millions of letters
Every time arranged
in another composition
as it makes
poetry for you
©RoseGirl2020
I keep still, keep silent
to let love play its melody
full fortissimo inside
so that it gloriously
deafens the mind
and leaves me breathless
in timeless love for you
©RoseGirl2020
When I go to bed and you,
somewhere far away,
are awake
make me some sweet dreams
kiss them, whisper them
yearn them, write them,
sing them to me
while I sleep
©RoseGirl2020
The more I’m tuned in
to myself
and the more
I’m present within,
the more I’m tuned in
to you
For I’m the portal
my heart is the bridge
to you

My fairy man, we both know
the art to become invisible
For we’ve learned it long time ago
when we were out in the dark woods
and other creatures attacked us
And sometimes, we still use it
to protect ourselves
We sprinkle our magic powder
and within an eye blink
we disappear into our fairy tales
drift away into our dreams
We keep silent
Invisible and transparent
like ghosts
The page stays blank
and can’t catch our words
But even though, no one
in the woods can see us
You always see me
I always see you
We’re never invisible to each other
as we see through the love
in our hearts
©RoseGirl2020
And sometimes it feels like
I am behind mirroring glass
I listen, I see, I hear
People project on me
see their own stories
on my surface
talk with themselves
but do they see me
My love, can you see me
can you see through the glass
and dissolve the loneliness
with the deep reach of your eyes
and the ears of your loving heart
©RoseGirl2020
The bird has left his cage
of the past,
as he broke free from the bars
of darkness and sadness
and now he sits on a branch
to sing for the world
his true heart song
of love, hope and joy
And sometimes,
his own bright light
still feels a bit uncomfortable
the blue sky is so open,
intense and so free
and he wants to fly back
to his cage
to his comfort zone
but then love, his own heart
reminds him that
things have changed
and it’s not where
he’s meant to be
©RoseGirl2020
When in life there have been
so many experiences of hurt
it is not always easy to walk
with open heart and in faith
But whenever I get triggered
and fears and
hopeless thoughts arise
I take a deep breath
and I choose
love, trust and joy over fear
As I see us walking
this journey together
I choose to be happy
not just for you or for me
but for us both
©RoseGirl2020
In the early morning
while cycling through
a cold hailstorm
I can only think
that this is another day
to love you even more
(and how I can get home
as quickly as possible)
©RoseGirl2020
I come to you
in the shape of a robin
right by your side
Whatever happens
I continue to sing you
my heart songs
I sing you straight through
the winter cold
and warm you with passion
I bring a promise of hope
And when you feel dead inside
I sing you alive
and remind you of Spring
Do you come to me
in the shape of a robin
do you continue to sing
even when it is Winter
do you bring me the promise
of Spring
©RoseGirl2020
And sometimes
the only remedy is
to let my fire for you
burn so fiercely
that it passionately
vaporizes the tears
©RoseGirl2020
And he said:
You say that you miss me
for you can’t see me
and my body isn’t there for you
to touch
But what if you would use your senses
in a different sequence
If you would first sense with your heart
to feel me,
if you would use your sixth sense
to connect
And then would use your eyes,
your ears, your taste, your smell,
your touch
would you then perceive me
would you sense me,
right by your side
©RoseGirl2020
I could miss someone
after a goodbye
I could miss the sun
on a cloudy day
I could miss Summer
when Autumn arrived
I missed loved ones
when they died
But still, I didn’t know
a depth of missing
so raw and painful
as if the other half of me
has been cut off
For I only truly know
what missing is
since I came to miss you
©RoseGirl2020
Sometimes my heart
feels like a vinyl
that lies on the turntable
of a record player
The needle scratches
in the groove
of such a sad song
and makes
a thousand rounds of
‘I miss you’
©RoseGirl2020
We climb the mountain together
step by step we go higher
closer to the sun
And as we ascend
our minds, our feet
may lose their grip
and it may look like
we fall deep
back to lower grounds
But we have the fixed
rope of love that secures us
that gives us a hold
We always have
each other’s back
And if we would look
from above
we would see our
upward progress
We would see that
eventually, we’ll reach
the top

The ego, the mind
seeks validation
It wants to be acknowledged
It wants to have proof
and confirmation
It wants to get
a written and signed ‘I love you’
to have an award,
a title, or Grammy
that says that it is worthy
it is loved and validated
Though the soul knows
true validation
can only be found
within one’s own heart
©RoseGirl2020
Words come and go
Emotions flow
through my lines
Subjects change
But you and love
are always there
are always present
in my poems
You witness
Love observes
You are woven
into every verse
You are the muse
Love the ink
with which I write
You are the breath
that breathes
each poem alive
Without you,
without love
there wouldn’t
be poetry at all
©RoseGirl2020
We have this little,
though great secret together
our sacred heart bond
not to see for the public eye
but we know, we feel, we see
that even miles apart,
wherever you go
you have me by your side
and wherever I am
I always have you secretly with me
©RoseGirl2020
She’d like to hide in a corner
so life wouldn’t see her
and could not hurt her no more
But why then keeps
her soul pushing her to go out
Is it love, is it her beloved that keeps
whispering inside not to give up
Simply, because she wasn’t made
for the shades
but she and he are made
for the light?
©RoseGirl2020
I love you
much
greatly
tremendously
unearthly
endlessly
and even more
than that
©RoseGirl2020
And…. cut!
The two lovers of true love
take a break from their earthly movie
and meet in a higher realm
And he said:
“What is the matter my sexy sweetie?”
She said:
“Well, my cutest cutie,
I don’t feel that sexy anymore
I am exhausted, I am in pain
I want to leave that crazy
earthly movie we are in
I am done with our egos,
with the roles we play
with the crazy story
It all hurts too much, as if it is real
My ego gets triggered by your ego
by what you do and don’t do
as it longs for validation
Can’t we just leave the earthly plain
and stay here forever melted
in each other’s arms”
“I know, my sweetie, I know
we have tough karma,
tough darkness to clear
but we signed up for this
we’re together on a mission
the harder the path is
the brighter our love will shine
Like this, I always hold you
when we’re back on earth again
just close your eyes
to feel my arms around you
how I continue to whisper
sweet words of love
into your heart
Don’t get so much caught up
in the illusion of the movie
don’t think the movie on earth is real
We play our roles
to help each other heal
But we are not our roles, not our egos
we are the actors, the soul behind it
So wipe away your tears, my sweetie
stand tall again
stand strong, stand in love
Remember, we made each other
a promise”
“Okay my cutest cutie,
I must be Superwoman
This all takes extraordinary powers”
“You are, my sweetie,
you are my heaven and earth angel”
“And you, you are my all-realms Superman”

Close your eyes and meet me
in another realm
Where there is only truth,
only love
Your hand always in mine
Where there is no veil
no fear, no pain
Where we can see each other,
see ourselves
for who we truly are

I cycle around in my town
catching the silver lining
catching the light
behind the dark clouds
©RoseGirl2020
You lie on the ground
like dead
– how many times
have you died
like this –
You lift your head
and look around
everything is
as white as paper
Nothing there
Nothing to see
No words
Are these the wide fields
of loneliness?
Your body aches
You hurt
Did you lose everything
Did you lose yourself
and now you’re nothing but
a heap of pain?
But then,
you go to your heart
you feel your beloved
you sense him
and you know
you still have love
you still have all
©RoseGirl2020
I could write many poems now
on how deep my heart aches
Though I could write even more
on the depth of my love for you
as light is always stronger than darkness
love is bigger than pain
©RoseGirl2020
I seek you
between two gasps for breath
among desperate thoughts
within a ball of pain
in my chest
within an aching heart
I seek you
and find you
for there is always love
©RoseGirl2020
When all is crumbling down
and tragedy, drama, horror
lies scattered around me,
loneliness howls at night,
the only light in the dark,
the only thing left is love
©RoseGirl2020
I wish I could paint the sky again
with my words
But every movement,
every stroke of my pen hurts
Only the stillness
of you wordlessly
holding my aching heart in love
brings solace
©RoseGirl2020
If she could disappear
she would
Leaving her deeply
wounded heart
behind
in a world
that hurt her too much
Seeking cover
in the softness
of her beloved’s heart
©RoseGirl2020
In this nightmare
from which I can’t
wake up
A hell, I couldn’t have
imagined
Please let me dream
sweet in your arms
And find heaven
in our love

To publish as a poet
is a great thing
It really means
you are someone
you have accomplished
something
Therefore I also published
on the most prestigious,
most appreciated pages
as I published
my entire work of poetry
on the pages of your heart
©RoseGirl2020
One
word
at
a
time
I
kiss
my
words
on
you
so
you
can
taste
them
one
by
one
and
soak
them
slowly
in
