Fiery October

With its last strength
the October sun gives me
its warmth
and burns with its rays
your name
on my forehead
cheeks and lips
as fiery kisses

©RoseGirl2022

Holding

I will hold you so fully
embrace you so tightly
that all your broken pieces
fall back into place

©RoseGirl2022

A Continuous Now

All the time that has passed
All the days without
when I look back I see
love erased the goodbyes
and made of it
a continuous now

©RoseGirl2022

Echos

I look at the stars
in the sky
to look for the echos
of your eyes

©RoseGirl2022

Greatness

When I stand before Goliath
with his lies
A sword of truth in my hand
Will you stand behind me,
beside me, within me
for the greatness of love

©RoseGirl2022

Uplifting

Ground control to your heart:
Fly high and then even higher
Reach for the stars
As our hearts are connected
by a thread of love
the higher yours goes
it will uplift mine
from the heavy ground too

©RoseGirl2022

The Only Way

Walls around me
and I yell and I scream
what to do
nowhere to go
but to love my way out
through the cracks

©RoseGirl2022

Uncensored

My voice that is silenced
still talks to you
through love
in your heart

©RoseGirl2022

Reminder

How can I ever
forget you
as love is
the constant reminder
of you

©RoseGirl2022

The Question

In the screaming of thoughts
if you don’t know what’s real
or true
there’s only one question to ask
is it the voice of love
or is it the voice of fear

©RoseGirl2022

Higher Up

I prick myself on the thorns
of fearful thoughts,
of missing you
meanwhile higher up
the rose of love blooms
untouchable

©RoseGirl2022

Roses

A west wind blows its song
Roses dance their petals open
Hearts reveal their naked hopes
and they let go
of their fears and thoughts
so they can
receive the sun

©RoseGirl2022

Prayer Of The Heart

And I fall through the space
between the thoughts
into the holiness of truth
as I fall into the depth
of the love in the heart
I hear the sacred song
of who we are

©RoseGirl2022

Surviving

Surviving sometimes
just means
being held, cradled,
nourished, protected
by your arms of love

©RoseGirl2022

Sacred Union

Light streams through me
from above
as the self reunites with the soul
the sun and the sun ray,
the sea and the river
become one
It is the same light, the same water
It is love that breathes out
and breathes in back to its source
as I find myself in love
I find myself in you

©RoseGirl2022

Witness

Can you hear me, love
Can you hear my tears
even in the lonesome silence
Can you see,
can you witness
all my fears
even in the darkest darkness
of the night
Can you feel every piece,
all of me

Can you feel
yourself here
with me

©RoseGirl2022

The Bridge

Where words stop,
the mind cannot reach
where an ocean splits
continents,
the heart is the bridge
between me and you

©RoseGirl2022

Mercy

A singer starts to sing
a guitar, piano and violin
and she lies down on the old floor
in the dark
at the back of the church
in the house of
Mary Magdalene and Yeshua
she surrenders
hands hold and caress her
music envelops her
tears run down her cheeks
like holy rivers
as she deeply longs for home
she longs for him

©RoseGirl2022

Loneliness

In the absence
I discover the presence
of love

©RoseGirl2022

Noon Dance

I danced with you midday
in the midst of the turmoil
I landed in your arms
My chest to yours
Did you feel my breath
while everyone was watching
but nobody saw it
this secret between me and you
that we danced through the heart

©RoseGirl2022

A Last Kiss

A last kiss of the sun
before he leaves
‘But do not fear
I’ll be back’,
he whispers softly,
‘In the meantime,
I asked the moon
to catch my light
and shine it in your night
so you’ll still have
something from me
that is with you’

©RoseGirl2022

All There Is

If nothing
seems to be there
no more
love is all there is

©RoseGirl2022

True Poetry

And we just step from the pages
unclothe us from the letters
let loose the lines
to find within
the true poetry
of me and you

©RoseGirl2022

Remembering Love

Maybe,
we just need to forget
Forget ourselves,
our ways,
our past,
our thoughts
to remember love

©RoseGirl2022

I Still Feel You

Cycling under a bright shining moon
I still feel the heat
of the sun on my skin
as if he in fact, didn’t leave
but is still there
as an imprint in my cells
in the reflection of the moon,
in the reflection of thoughts
I still feel you

©RoseGirl2022

Milky Way Of Sounds

The night sings your songs
and makes a milky way of sounds
from you to me

©RoseGirl2022

Disappearing

The day disappears into the night
The sun disappears into the arms
of the moon
Fears disappear into love
as me and you disappear into us

©RoseGirl2022

A Place

Poetry is a place
where I reside
with you

©RoseGirl2022

Nightly Stream

The stars are too far to reach me
Tears drop in the river
and merge with the water
Will they stream towards sea
to reach you

©RoseGirl2022

In The Light

Sun rays, penetrate me
Light, absorb me and
lift me up
from a heavy earth
into the sky
to have a sacred dance
with my beloved

©RoseGirl2022

Visible

When the night is dark
may light shine from the heart
so love is what becomes visible

©RoseGirl2022

Here

You’re somewhere
out there
but what if ‘there’
doesn’t exist
and everything
I think of is
in fact, here
where I love?

©RoseGirl2022

Sinking Sun

Sun, do not go away
do not leave me tonight
Do not sink into the waters
Or is it only,
as I sink along with you,
to shine some light
in their depths,
in their darkness?

©RoseGirl2022

Perhaps

And perhaps,
if I just write and write
and write
I’ll write peace into me
I’ll write you back
here

©RoseGirl2022

In The Summer Breeze

Seek my words
in the summer breeze
that whispers my poems
to you
in its different ways
to stroke your cheeks
and letter by letter breathes
my tales from overseas
onto you

©RoseGirl2022

Cloud Surfing

Lying on my back
in the grass
I look at the sky
and wait
for a cloud to pass by
to jump on
so I can surf
my way to you

©RoseGirl2022

Looking

Do you look for me
Even if I’m nowhere to see
In all my dark places
In the corners
of the night
Even if I can’t see
myself

©RoseGirl2022

Moon Eyes

The moon has eyes tonight
as she looks at you from above
and sees,
she shines to me
how beautiful you are

©RoseGirl2022

Love Writes

When I don’t write
when my pen doesn’t touch
the paper
and words aren’t needed
then love writes the most

©RoseGirl2022

Heart Balloon

As you lose solid ground
and the world beneath your feet
becomes smaller
hold on to your heart
rise high in love
you will float among clouds
and stars
cross mountains and oceans
as your heart brings you back to me

©RoseGirl2022

Made Of The Same

Are you still there, he asks
Where are you, she wonders
But do they both know
they are ever present
they will always be
as they consist of love

©RoseGirl2022

All The Same

The sun rises
and the sun sets
it’s another day
he sings another song,
sleeps another sleep
Is it all the same?

And she stares at the sky
from her bed
it’s another day
she cries another tear,
dreams another dream
Far away
Is it all the same?

Or does love grow
and heal
beyond the days
beyond what they
can see?

©RoseGirl2022

Light Booster

The summer solstice sun
burns bright in the sky
and I drink it in
to quench my thirst
for you

©RoseGirl2022

What My Silence Means

My silence only means
I’m fighting to open
I’m fighting to close
Help me to find my voice
in the darkness
I’m dying inside
I’m trapped,
I’m broken
Fear wants to run away
I want nothing more than
to connect
But can’t reach your hand
Hear my screaming silence
through the walls
and love me

©RoseGirl2022

The Island

As I swim in rough waters
lend me your hand
to pull me to the island
of a peaceful, timeless Self
where waves cannot come
