    Rejection

    The flattering, elegant stranger chained me suddenly to her heart when I blissfully closed my eyes and she pressed her finer into my lips and whispered with hypnotic eyes, ”No, I am not for you nor anyone.”  the rhythm of her voice evoked something within me...

    Something Untouchable

    You are somethingthat will always be out of reach to me. Something I can sensewith even blurred consciousness. Though your form is bothperfect and clear to me.  Do I know you?Or am I mad in love?Is this love poem with sailsbound for...

    When dreams come at you, Fast & Furious  And reality is the second   All I want is you?  Never did I say anything other than I want you on this bed naked.    I want to take you so many ways that even God...

    • hello dearest Benny lines are drawn and free speech is dangerous these days where if the tolerance and love for each other well said❤

    • If we find the root. Yes, easier said than done. I believe many prejudices we may hold come from our parents.
      We are not born with them. Kids play with other kids, all other kids. And then later on as they grow older, they see and copy.
      Can we ever go back to that innocence? that acceptance of everyone who is different from us?
      I believe in this poem. And if we can figure it all out, maybe we can first understand ourselves and then understand and accept others. This poem sent me on a journey of introspection. Thank you.

    • This is a very powerful and meaningful writing, dear Peterl!
      In my opinion, love and hatred, darkness and light and other counterparts are the two sides of the same coin. Without darkness we were not able to recognize and appreciate the light. Both sides come from the same divine source and are equally important. But it is up to us which side we want to feed energy and establish it this way. We have to BE the love and the peace we want to see in this world!

    Your Eyes

    Stars constant, as winks, in wine glasses.
