You’ve said it long time ago
or maybe, you didn’t say it at all
but you dreamt it, wished it, hushed it
and now I hear its echo
in the still water surface of the soul

Poetic Art From The Heart ~ Finding Beauty In Truth
You’ve said it long time ago
or maybe, you didn’t say it at all
but you dreamt it, wished it, hushed it
and now I hear its echo
in the still water surface of the soul
©RoseGirl2023
Your hands, your body
let your presence
flow into my cells
that soaked in
your warmth
And I let it again
fulfill me, embrace me
as I recall in my cells
your touch
©RoseGirl2023
Is it you again
as my miracle
that appears
behind a curtain
of tears,
your hand
reaches through
to touch my heart
©RoseGirl2023
The moon peeps out
from among the clouds
to show it is still there
it never left
even in times of darkness
and troubled sight
it seeks the heart,
seeks the eyes
of those who cannot sleep
©RoseGirl2023
She left the door of her heart
open for him
so he could go if he wanted to
and could come back in
but he always stayed
©RoseGirl2023
The new year
is a white sheet
to write
with a new pen
with determination
stories of love
©RoseGirl2023
Don’t go outside
farther than the border
of your skin
where you’ll find
a gap, an abyss
where eyes miss to see,
to be seen and to drown
where arms miss to hold
and be held
where fingers miss to touch
and be touched
But stay inside
where the heart
is full of him
©RoseGirl2022
The fewer
words
the more
there is left
to feel
©RoseGirl2022
Between night and day
light and dark
between me here and you there
always and never
between alpha and omega
past and future
In the middle
there’s a lot of space
for us to stay
©RoseGirl2022
I reach out to you
with my pen
to keep you company
offer you a poem
as a place
to be with me
©RoseGirl2022
For the outcasts
of a dark world outside
the heart is the inn
to shelter where light
will be born from inside out
©RoseGirl2022
When times are dark,
no light in the sky,
hearts beam love
towards each other
over great distance
and where they touch
there appears
the Christmas star
©RoseGirl2022
Do you know
you have nothing to lose
as thoughts, how far
they may travel,
keep holding me
as love cannot leave
you
©RoseGirl2022
It’s a rainy day
and I flow with the water
flow with tears
like a river that discharges
into the sea of love
©RoseGirl2022
In the songs I sing
in between the tones
the ebb and flow of sounds
I hear our silent embrace
©RoseGirl2022
What if we don’t say anything
but we dance beyond words
further than our memories
where do we end up
there where we began?
©RoseGirl2022
If you feel lost, alone and far away
at the sea of your emotions
with its highs and lows
know you are, I am,
the harbor of love is close
it’s that what the sea holds
©RoseGirl2022
Sit in silence
close your eyes
journey inwards
and breathe
into your heart
and as you fall
deeper and deeper
into you
fall into me
we’ll fall together
into a universe of love
©RoseGirl2022
In a picture of the past
you stand on a balcony
of an old building
in the Netherlands
where I was born
where lions once roared
battles were fought
music was played
life was mourned
and celebrated
And as you look
do you look for me
into the future
with eyes, with arms
that are my home
in a country that wasn’t
©RoseGirl2022
Words are the banks
that separate us
Love is the water in between
that fills the gap
©RoseGirl2022
Music plays
I play with sounds
and I let you dance through me
as I move and touch my body
I touch you
and I invite life
I invite you to dance me
©RoseGirl2022
I tried to get
to the core of love
but instead,
love gets to the core
of me
©RoseGirl2022
What is hope
but to feel love
in the midst
of darkness
©RoseGirl2022
There was no escape
the storm was everywhere
and I know it left you
wounded and broken
just like me
but in love we are
whole always
so let’s be there
©RoseGirl2022
I dance
I circle and swing
among others
on the dance floor
and they might think
I’m on my own
but what they cannot see
is that, in fact,
secretly,
I dance with you
©RoseGirl2022
And if the moon
looks down tonight
distance is so relative
as she sees our hearts
touching each other
as they glow
expanding love
©RoseGirl2022
Silently I fly with owl
under the almost full moon
the autumn wind beneath
my wings
and as I cross the night,
cross my thoughts
I borrow owl’s eyes
to look through the dark
to clearly see
you
©RoseGirl2022
At night when the world has quieted down
the ties to bodies and thoughts
have been loosened
barriers are crossed
then there’s just you and me
in the intimate space of a dream
©RoseGirl2022
I dance in soft October light
and set into motion
all the things that need to move
I dance thoughts, dance words
dance the waters of emotions
I dance me, I dance you
©RoseGirl2022
I am with autumn
with leaves that fall like teardrops
I am with trees
that show their colours
I am with clouds that hide the sun
I am with mushrooms, chestnuts
and acorns,
But I just wish I was with you
©RoseGirl2022
I seek my memories for you
seek the places we were
to only find you here with me
in the now
©RoseGirl2022
A soft poem
like a healing hand
on your forehead
to ease your thoughts,
release your pain
to feel my skin of words
and bring me close
©RoseGirl2022
It is just love
that doesn’t need my body
to travel to you
and give you a kiss
©RoseGirl2022
Do you hear the loud wind
how it stirs up the air
between me and you
as if it knows we’re close now
and we only need a little push
We only need a written word,
a dreamed dream, a sung song
to make our feet go
where our heart is
©RoseGirl2022
Where there is fear,
darkness, anger
or doubt
let there be love
and let love reach
where it has never
been before
©RoseGirl2022
I let love fill up
all those empty places
where you are not
©RoseGirl2022
Dreaming of you,
I’m still awake
my hand reaches out
in the dark
to touch you
with poetry
©RoseGirl2022
And we meet again and again
whispering, longing
in the light of the day,
the dark of the night
any time, any place
those encounters I have
with you in the heart
©RoseGirl2022
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
I will hold you so fully
embrace you so tightly
that all your broken pieces
fall back into place
©RoseGirl2022
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
I look at the stars
in the sky
to look for the echos
of your eyes
©RoseGirl2022
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
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
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
