Poetic Art From The Heart ~ Finding Beauty In Truth
When the things around us
are overwhelming
and it’s all too much
Let’s make it a little
by pulling down the blinds
of the window to the world
by little kisses,
a little dance
a little movement,
a little music
and much,
so much love

If I stand up alone
in a crowd
for what I believe
is right
and people cannot see and hear
my underlying message
of unity, understanding
and love
will you stand by my side
do you hear and see
’cause sometimes,
it’s just so lonely
to be in a crowd
©RoseGirl2020
And we breathe together
and make cleansing ocean waves
roll through our mind and body
as we breathe in
love and faith
and breathe out
fear and pain
©RoseGirl2020
If I stumble and fall
in my clumsy attempts
to just be myself
and to do good
for you, for me, for us
If I stumble on
negative thoughts
and harsh judgements
about myself
with one leg
in the old story
and with the other
in the new
Will you reach out your arm,
your hand, your heart
and will you catch me

The Pain goes so deep
only, because of
the depth of the love
©RoseGirl2020
On a random morning
in spring
when things around
may not look perfect
and inside dreams scream
to be fulfilled
I breathe
in the thought of you
then love simply is
and maybe, now,
before and in the end
it’s ALL there is
©RoseGirl2020
When all has collapsed
all that is left
is hope
To see nothing
and to yet see it all
Even when the mind
doubts and fears
To have the vision,
the remembrance,
the knowing
of true love
inside the heart
And then to
wholeheartedly believe

Union is not found
on lower grounds
in distance, in miles
in narratives
in fear, blame, guilt
suffering and shame
But union is found
in the truth of our hearts
It’s you in me and me in you
It’s to look up and rise above
the lies and the illusion
of separation
and to see just one sky,
one love
and an always, eternal ‘us’
©RoseGirl2020
Hell isn’t a place
somewhere in the afterlife
But it’s suffering
here on earth
It’s the deepest soul pain
of what is one
but is perceived as
cut in two
Divine love counterparts
with sea, land
stories and silence
between them
It’s missing you
– my best friend,
my everything –
sensed like a paralyzing,
burning pain
in my body
Hell is the illusion
of separation

She:
I wish we could have celebrated
this day together
But on your side of the world,
you have the happy blue skies
to look at
Whereas here around me
I don’t see anyone,
I don’t see anything
all around me is so dense and dark
He:
You look at the wrong place
Instead, look inside your heart
There, all you will see is light
all you’ll see is the vastness of love
for there, I’ve painted blue skies
for us both
©RoseGirl2020
When the heart
is deeply painfully
squeezed
by the hand of
panicking
ego narratives,
still the juice
that flows out of it
is love
©RoseGirl2020
You were and you are
always in my poems
in the ones once dreamt
long before we met
in the ones written
and unwritten
for my words have always
sought you
©RoseGirl2020
Sing away the clouds
in my mind
Sing the sun
into the vast sky
of my heart
Let me look into your eyes
as I need new horizons
to look at
To focus only on me, on you
and on love
Away from the dense
world outside
to find the whole universe
within us
©RoseGirl2020
In fact, I’ve never stopped
to write you
even after my last
sentence on paper
I continued to write
you my stories,
my feelings, my thoughts,
my love
on the infinite pages
of your heart
©RoseGirl2020
The things
I’m social distancing from
are not people
but from media, from politics,
from division, from mass hysteria,
from judgements, from conflict,
from intolerance, from racism,
from injustice, from inequality
to find more closeness
in love
©RoseGirl2020
Where are you,
screams my mind,
scream my eyes
screams my body,
scream my tears
He’s right here,
sings my heart
sings my soul
sings love
©RoseGirl2020
And now the night
has covered your side of the world
with darkness
and you lay down your head
to fall asleep
I watch over you while I bathe
here in daylight
I send loving thoughts
as soothing kisses
I write poetry
to weave you a blanket
that keeps you safe and warm
And with the pencil of my heart
I draw you images
so you have something sweet
and colourful to dream about
©RoseGirl2020
I have your photograph
always with me
for you’re portrayed
on every side of my heart
©RoseGirl2020
In a dense reality
full of fear, anger
and suffering
The only thing
to get us out of here
is to rise above
with the wings
of our love
©RoseGirl2020
Outside birds sing their last song
right before sunset
to serenade queen moon
so she can make her way
up into the sky
And in the moment of twilight
when the veil is thinnest
and day and night
magically meet,
she kisses king sun
in a fiery embrace
and whispers to him:
‘My love, good night’
©RoseGirl2020
When my eyes are too pained
by what they have seen
When they have seen too much
beyond lies and illusions
behind politics and media
I close them to find
my vast world with you
behind the veil of my eyelids
to look deep into
the higher truth of our love
©RoseGirl2020
I so much long to sink deeply
in your arms
to rise and fall together
on our synchronized breath
to listen to the song of our hearts
to see the stars in your eyes
and touch infinity
I long to feel the comfortable warmth
of your body entwined with mine
to know that all is safe, all is well
even if rain and thunder rage
outside
How I long as I long for home
©RoseGirl2020
Under tonight’s full moon
Free me, my love
by loving me
I free you
by loving you
so fiercely
and fiery
that it burns away
the chains,
the old
and we can fly beyond
our wildest imagination
©RoseGirl2020
While I walk in the pouring rain
and the waters of my heart
pour from my eyes,
I feel so much resistance
against a reality I do not want
lines drawn by others I don’t
want to follow
and with every step, every breath
I fight my way forward
But then I feel your sunshine
inside of me
Your smile that says
Do not resist what is
but move along gracefully
Rain it, shower it out
Do not use your strength
to battle yourself
Feel my inner kisses that soften
your heart
Accept where you are right now
dance your own way forward
and then change will follow
©RoseGirl2020
Sometimes the fine line
between day and night,
between a dream and the real,
the ethereal and the physical,
waking and sleeping, fades
When the desiring echo
of a dream of two lovers
dreamt at night,
is still papable
under and on the skin
and naturally merges into
awake daydreams
©RoseGirl2020
With all the division,
the wild emotions,
the storms that rage in the world,
let me find peace in the home
of your arms
let me merge with you
as we testify with our lips,
our hands, our bodies,
to the truth in our hearts
Our vision of oneness,
unity and love
©RoseGirl2020
When eyes drown in tears
and thoughts take me
on a rollercoaster ride
in a false reality
It’s just about finding
footing again
on the firm
and soft ground
of love
©RoseGirl2020
I hug you, my love
with my light body,
my energy
Our etheric,
eternal arms
around each other
powerful and loving enough
to cross dimensions
and to bring it
into the physical
©RoseGirl2020
My love, from the outside
it may look like
you are alone
as you stand up bravely
before the world
as you know, we know,
how strong love is
It is strong enough
to hold your hand
to stand by your side
this force field between us
that makes us connect
and shine our light together
over thousands of miles
of sea and land
©RoseGirl2020
And she could shout,
she could scream, protest
and thunder
about all the injustice in the world
That black lives matter
That all lives matter
But instead of
throwing bombs of anger,
With her poems, with her being
she places bombs of love
©RoseGirl2020
Separately we can be
in the most beautiful,
idyllic landscapes,
take gorgeous pictures,
live adventures,
create art and
have successes
but still we’ll be
each other’s missing link
©RoseGirl2020
Our dreams are like
hot-air balloons
we need to fuel them
with belief and faith
so they can go up
and take flight
with us
blown forward
towards new horizons
by the strong wind
of our love
©RoseGirl2020
The dark is not the absence of light
We recognize the dark only
because we know there is light
Like in my heart missing you
is not the absence of you
as it only shows how much
you are present there
©RoseGirl2020
And if I don’t dare to hope
don’t dare to trust
will you hold my hand
and squeeze it
so I know
hope is more than a dream,
to let me check in
with my heart
to feel how real
our love is
©RoseGirl2020
More intimate than
writing you a letter
or sending you an email
only meant for your eyes,
is to write my naked words
directly
on your naked heart
©RoseGirl2020
When you don’t have just one opinion
but you can see both sides of the coin,
can empathize with many stories,
even if they are opposites,
you resonate in oneness with the world
©RoseGirl2020
A harmony is not made
by the same notes
but by different tones
different colours,
different footsteps
that are separated
but related to each other
to bring unity
and create together
the perfect dance,
the most beautiful song
©RoseGirl2020
Even before I met you
there has always been you
like paint that drips
into a glass of water
and colours it
you dripped into time
into my past,
into my future
until everywhere around me
I found my eternal now
with you
©RoseGirl2020
Sadness can be
a beautiful emotion
if you float on its water
move along with its waves
in surrender
And realize,
underneath the surface
there’s just an ocean
full of love for you
©RoseGirl2020
And sometimes
the heart needs anger
pure, raw, authentic anger
to have the power
to break through
anything
that’s holding
it back
and break free
from the chains
©RoseGirl2020
Amidst chaos
broken feelings,
an overwhelm
a broken mind
a sick body
a bruised head
what still stands
like a rock
unbroken
three words whispered
into the night
like a pure,
soothing song
from deep within
the wholeness
of the soul:
I love you
©RoseGirl2020
Lay your hand on my forehead
to calm down the aching fire
of a fierce migraine
as my brain short-circuits
every movement,
every thought hurts
Calm it down with your hand
the way only your loving palm
your loving fingers,
your loving heart,
can ease
make it dark before my eyes
and touch me
into a soft, pain free sleep
©RoseGirl2020
The light that resides
in my heart
and that shines
through my being
is the light of
having you
always with me,
the light of our love
©RoseGirl2020
I show you my face
let you look into my eyes
only for you
to see and be seen
to read the love
read my deepest stories,
and what’s written
on the soul
so you can remember
yourself and me
so you can see
forever
©RoseGirl2020
I hear the sea in my ears
or is it you
whispering a mantra
of sweet words to me
like kisses
water that ripples
begins to fall
and rise higher
as I float on waves
of arousal
breath becomes the sound
of the sea
that swells
ecstatic
a wild dance
a vast love
that is oceanic
©RoseGirl2020
