Mowers make a lot of noise
as they mow anything
that doesn’t serve no more
and cut away
old stories and thoughts
Until from within,
from stillness,
the song of free birds
can be heard again

The heart that seems
to be shattered
in fact, hasn’t been broken
but is always whole
as it is held together
by love

©RoseGirl2021

I miss you

sometimes stands alone

©RoseGirl2021

Even if I cannot see you
Even if silence sounds so loud
and fear paints the night dark,
Above the earth,
above the thoughts,
the stars still light up
the story of us
and connect the dots
between me here
and you there

©RoseGirl2021

The mind seeks outside
and wonders
where you are
It’s the heart
that finds you
as resident
of its chambers

©RoseGirl2021

Waves come and go
Emotions flow
through me
Though I know
each wave
brings me closer
to you
and moves me
across the ocean
onto land

©RoseGirl2021

Butterflies make their own song
as they flutter with their wings
between two hearts
and make the air vibrate
on the frequency of love

©RoseGirl2021

We’ll be like a white paper
without the stories in our mind
without the memories and what we tell
ourselves about the future
and then there will be only
the blank page of the now
on which our kisses,
our dance of love writes
new poetry

©RoseGirl2021

If the vast sky of the mind
opens itself
to offer its empty space
to the sun,
then his rays of light
can come in
to inspire her

©RoseGirl2021

Just be
breathe and feel
everything over there
is here
you are in me

©RoseGirl2021

How far and fast
thoughts can travel
if they want
to be with you

©RoseGirl2021

In a crowd,
a city full of people
my hand, my arms,
my eyes feel
so empty
without you

©RoseGirl2021

Wind, pick me up
on this dark and lonely night
as it rains teardrops
let me fly high above the clouds
in my head
and carry me to my beloved
Let me land in his arms
so I can see stars in his eyes

©RoseGirl2021

How can the moon
ever forget the sun
even if she cannot see
him in her sky
even if he seems
so far away
and out of reach,
as she moves
around the earth
she will always
catch his light

©RoseGirl2021

I let thoughts
drift away from me
like leaves from a tree
until I’m only bare love

©RoseGirl2021

And if I just fly up to the stars tonight
will you do the same
and will we meet and dance and kiss
somewhere where we do not miss
where worlds aren’t split
but where I’m just with you
and you with me
as it should be
as it is wished for
will we pick up our dreams tonight
somewhere in the stars

©RoseGirl2021

May I seek comfort
in your heart
when my own heart feels
too frightening
May I be moved
by your heartbeat
so I can find
the rhythm of us

©RoseGirl2021

The lines of this poem are my lips
that give you a soft goodnight kiss

©RoseGirl2021

Does the daisy ever worry
about the if, the when
and the how
or does she just bloom
her own beauty
and knows that
when the time is right,
the bee will come

©RoseGirl2021

Thoughts find each other
in the ether
where they playfully dance
and entwine
and then land again
in two separate minds
to hold the same dream

©RoseGirl2021

It’s almost like
the full moon smiles
as if it knows, as if it sees
not only me here,
but also you there
and has
what we are both missing
captured together
in its sight

©RoseGirl2021

Maybe, the night
was never meant
to be dark
but meant to show
how bright the light is

©RoseGirl2021

Days pass by like traffic
Our hearts stay in place
and pulse
a continuum of love

©RoseGirl2021

Our love is the poetry
The other things are just
words

©RoseGirl2021

The night has many dark ways,
many dark places to go
But wherever it takes me
please, hold my hand
and walk with me together
towards the dawn

©RoseGirl2021

Are you watching the cat
from a distance
how she licks her wounds
but still tries to move gracefully
to find her way home

Or is she watching you
how your heart is wounded
but is still beating determined
and strong

Does she watch,
do you watch
just to see if you still
have each other
in sight

©RoseGirl2021

I feel and hear
and smell you
even now you’re gone
so perhaps
you never truly went
as long as
the thought of you
still comes

©RoseGirl2021

Afraid to lose,
she loses all the time
But how can
her heart ever lose
as inside,
it always has it all

©RoseGirl2021

Did you ever leave
Did I ever leave
Or was every ‘goodbye’
our eyes said
just another
‘see you in the heart’

©RoseGirl2021

In quiet times
when it rains outside
and tears fall
with a lot of noise
I listen
to the silence
between us
and hear
so much love

©RoseGirl2021

It’s dark everywhere
Lights have been turned off
Stars have fallen from the sky
But you caught them in your heart, my love
So I can feel them there

©RoseGirl2021

Is it the sun
that hides
from my sky
Or is it me
who hides
behind clouds
from the sun

©RoseGirl2021

When eyes are blinded
the world is a maze
feet are running
and searching
and the heart is beating
too fast,
I hold on to the thread
of you,
that is woven
in my existence
to find back
the core of me

©RoseGirl2021

Is it the dark moon
that makes nights so dark
Or does it just ask me
to find light, to find you
even if the sky is full
of absence

©RoseGirl2021

Lost on a shaky earth,
I look at the stars,
follow their lines
to find my way to you

©RoseGirl2021

When words lie heavy
in the shadows,
only see the dark
and try to make
desperate poems
I turn them around
so they can face the sun

©RoseGirl2021

A crying wind of longing
that comes from far,
blows through the night,
through the cracks,
penetrates the sleep
and wakes me up
so I feel
on my naked skin
on my naked heart
that I’m missing you

©RoseGirl2021

Looking at the sky
the night falls softly
on my lips
as I taste the stars
that seem to
have been kissed
to me by you

©RoseGirl2021

Thoughts paint
dark clouds above
a terrifying landscape
when they look
from the past
into the future

But in the now,
in the heart
where I am with you,
all is well

©RoseGirl2021
