Eternal Connections

beatrizesmer

I shall not utter the words of parting, for where could I venture where your essence does not permeate? We are not two entities divided, but rather, we are the dual manifestations of the same cosmic intellect, evolving in harmony. Wherever you wage your battles, know that I am there beside you, my spirit echoing your every move. Wherever your heart finds solace, mine too, finds peace. In moments of tranquility, you plunge into the profound depths of stillness, a serene ocean where the purest fragment of my being resides. Our journeys may trace divergent paths across the vast expanse … Continue reading Eternal Connections

Full of Soul

beatrizesmer

In a world that craved my sight, they wished for me to be sightless. They yearned for the allure of my eyes yet desired them to be blind to the truths that lay bare before them. They sought the beauty of my gaze, but not the vision that came with it. They admired the fullness of my lips but recoiled at the weight of the words they formed. They longed for the softness of my speech yet shunned the hard truths that slipped from my tongue. They wanted the whispers of sweet nothings, but not the roar of political discourse. … Continue reading Full of Soul

The Unyielding Persistence of Love

beatrizesmer

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, I scattered the essence of my being, my soul, like stardust strewn across the galaxy. I cast my heart, the core of my emotions, into the depths of the sea, surrendering it to the ebb and flow of the tides. I sought refuge within myself, hiding in the labyrinth of my thoughts and feelings, yet Love, with its relentless pursuit, found its way back to me. I have voiced a symphony of battle cries, each note echoing my courage and determination. I have unleashed a torrent of screams, each one a testament to … Continue reading The Unyielding Persistence of Love

The Art of Unrealized Love

beatrizesmer

Emotions run as deep as oceans, there exists a paradoxical elixir – passion. It is said to be toxic, a perilous potion that ensnares the soul, yet it is this very toxin we crave. We are drawn to its danger, its power to overwhelm our senses, to make us feel alive. For what is art without the intoxication of passion? It is the fire that fuels creation, the storm that stirs the calm. True art, they say, is born from love that is arduous, like the unrequited yearnings of Calvin, or love that is elusive, slipping through fingers like grains … Continue reading The Art of Unrealized Love

The Unspoken Word

beatrizesmer

Upon the precipice of expression, there lies a word, unvoiced and ethereal. It is not adorned with the grandeur of eloquence, nor does it bask in the light of common understanding. This word is a silent envoy of the heart’s deepest alcoves, a mere whisper of the spirit’s stirring. It is the embodiment of paradox, a word that provokes a tempest within the soul’s quietude. It is the ache of remembrance, the sharp pang of longing that carves hollows in the chest. Yet, in its embrace, it is also the harbinger of exultation, filling the void with a resonance that … Continue reading The Unspoken Word

Shout out!

beatrizesmer

How long will you bear the weight of silence before it shatters you? What makes it so challenging for you to open your heart and accept assistance? Like a forest fire dwindling to its final embers, you are a vibrant flame that continues to flicker. I can sense it in the ashes of your stride. I wonder if the metaphorical prison cells you carry on your shoulders ever become too burdensome. I wonder if they’re the cause of your faltering steps. I question if the prison cells you bear, affixed to your speech, ever weigh too heavily on your words. … Continue reading Shout out!

Rules

beatrizesmer

Once upon a time, I was a prisoner of my own creation, bound by the chains of rules and regulations. I used to have rules about poetry, a world where words danced to the rhythm of my heartbeat. I counted in line, time, meter, and form, each syllable a steppingstone, each line a journey, each poem a universe unto itself. I was a puppeteer of language, fingering syllables and forking tongues, weaving tapestries of emotion and thought with the threads of words. I used to have rules about love, a labyrinth of do’s and don’ts that dictated the rhythm of … Continue reading Rules

The Half-Past-One Blues

beatrizesmer

There are moments that I yearn to escape from, to shed this skin that serves as a transient sanctuary. Yet, there are milestones where I find solace in my own presence, marveling at the distance my spirit has traversed. I strive to distill my days into simplicity, but I encounter souls, spaces, and objects that stir my core, inundating me with a torrent of emotions that remain an alien dialect to my speech. I am youthful, at least in spirit, and it feels as though I have witnessed a treasure chest of bygone eras. The purpose of my existence is … Continue reading The Half-Past-One Blues

Like The Tide

beatrizesmer

In the mess of my thoughts, I stumbled upon an open book, its pages as blank as the canvas of a yet-to-be-painted masterpiece. Within its untouched expanse, I saw the perfect silhouette of an airplane, a phantom etched in the parchment, a surreal dream cradled within the confines of reality. The clouds, those ethereal guardians of the sky, heaved with the weight of unshed rain, parting reluctantly to reveal a place, a center, a wish. It was a sanctuary, a haven where I gathered the musky scents of forgotten memories and remnants of clothes strewn across the floor. In the … Continue reading Like The Tide

A Poem, A Song, A Story

beatrizesmer

Deep in my heart, I feel regret, a heaviness that has seeped into my days. I’ve worn it like a cloak, a weight that has tethered me to the earth, pulling me from the sky in a relentless downpour. These are the days where names have lost their meaning, where the echo of my own seems to fade into the background. But amidst this melancholy, spring has arrived, a season that I’ve always claimed as my own. It has brought with it a blooming, a sudden burst of color that has taken me by surprise. It’s an invitation, an opportunity … Continue reading A Poem, A Song, A Story
