Se um dia …

Se algum dia minha história for contada, diga que caminhei entre as estrelas. Que meus passos, embora terrenos, sempre buscaram o brilho do infinito. Que meus sonhos, vastos e luminosos, se entrelaçaram com a poeira cósmica, criando constelações de esperança e coragem. Diga que, mesmo nas noites mais escuras, eu olhei para o céu e encontrei força nas estrelas cintilantes. Que cada desafio enfrentado foi uma estrela cadente, um desejo realizado, uma prova de que a luz sempre prevalece sobre a escuridão. Que minha jornada foi guiada pela luz das estrelas, e que, em cada momento de dúvida, eu encontrei … Continue reading Se um dia …

Between the Galaxies

Our skins, like ancient manuscripts, tell stories of fire and love, etched in the lines and freckles that map our histories. Yours, a canvas of moonlight, soft and yielding. Mine, a tapestry of sun-kissed resilience, bearing the weight of generations. When we lay breast to breast, our contours align—a celestial choreography of curves and edges. The beauty lies in this convergence, the way our forms tangle and seek solace in each other’s warmth. Yet, as I trace the contours of your shoulder, I find no wildfire burning into my flesh. No searing imprint that lingers long after our embrace. With … Continue reading Between the Galaxies

The Garden of Promises

Before they begin planting flowers in you, take a moment to ask if their roots will intertwine with yours through the spiteful winter days, when the world is cloaked in frost and the air bites with a sharp chill. Will they stand by you when the blistering sunshine creeps over your shoulders, relentless and unyielding, testing the strength of your bond? Inquire if staying is more than just a fleeting action, but a steadfast presence, a verb and a noun, etched in the dictionaries on the shelves of their ribs. Is their touch a promise of constancy, or merely a … Continue reading The Garden of Promises

Embracing Lunar Love

For women who are tied to the moon, love alone is not enough. We demand that each day entwine its knuckles through our heartstrings and pull, drawing out the lows, the joy, the poetry. We dance at the precipice of existence, where you have tumbled into the abyss. Yet, as the moon waxes and wanes, so too will you rise again. You, rare girl, possess a body that belongs to no lover, no father—it is yours alone. Wear your sorrow like the lines etched on your palm, like a shawl that shields you from the chill of night. Do not … Continue reading Embracing Lunar Love

The Abyss of War

In the stillness of dawn, the air was shattered by the piercing cry of bullets, slicing through the delicate veil of night and dew. The symphony of war, devoid of beauty or romance, echoed with the heavy footsteps of death’s inevitable march. It moved indiscriminately, claiming both the guilty and the innocent, a relentless force that knew no discernment. War’s apologists spoke of the fog of conflict, but we knew it to be the searing breath of a monstrous hunger, consuming all in its path. Some were spat out, many swallowed, into the grim depths from which there was no … Continue reading The Abyss of War

Yearning Under the Moon’s Gaze

It felt as though someone had rifled through the intimate drawers of my soul, exposing my vulnerabilities under the harsh glare of reality. I would often find myself at the window, gazing at the miniature cars below, swirling like dry leaves in the wind, while I silently reread letters that had long lost their voices. In those moments, I yearned for wings instead of limbs, to break free from the confines of my existence and soar between the towering buildings. Your fiery eyes burned into me, surrounding me with an intensity that I couldn’t escape, yet I chose not to … Continue reading Yearning Under the Moon’s Gaze

The Value of Kindness

Among the sweets of adversity, let me tell you, there are not many. Yet, the sweetest, the most precious, is the lesson I learned about the value of kindness. In the darkest hours, when the weight of the world seemed unbearable, it was the smallest acts of kindness that eased my heavy heart. A gentle smile, a helping hand, a word of encouragement—each one a beacon of light in the shadows. Kindness, I discovered, has a transformative power. It can soften the hardest of hearts, mend the deepest of wounds, and bridge the widest of divides. It is a universal … Continue reading The Value of Kindness

The Unwritten Sorrows

Deep in our hearts, there exist sorrows so profound that they defy the confines of language. These are the sadnesses that linger in the shadows, too vast and intricate to be captured by mere words. They swell and surge, like waves crashing against the fragile shores of our souls, leaving us adrift in a sea of unspoken emotions. The alphabet, with its 26 letters, feels woefully inadequate in the face of such overwhelming feeling. Each letter, each word, seems to fall short, unable to encompass the depth of our pain. We reach for poetry, for the solace of verse, but … Continue reading The Unwritten Sorrows

Le murmure de la mer

Le murmure de la mer résonne comme un chant ancien, une mélodie douce-amère qui raconte l’histoire de tant d’âmes perdues dans le bleu pur et infini. Ces innocents, inertes face à la volonté humaine, dérivent loin de leur patrie désolée, volée et violée. Les mains qui leur ont arraché l’or, la foi, la dignité, les observent maintenant se noyer sans pitié, indifférentes à leur sort. Chaque vague qui se brise sur le rivage porte avec elle les échos de leurs souffrances, un rappel poignant de l’injustice et de la cruauté du monde. Sous le ciel étoilé, la mer devient le … Continue reading Le murmure de la mer

Intrinsic Poetry

In the dawn, when the world is still wrapped in the gentle embrace of sleep, there exists a being whose very essence is poetry. This poetry is not confined to the pages of a book or the verses of a song; it is etched into the very fabric of their existence. It begins with the strength of their biceps, where each sinew and muscle tell a story of resilience and grace. The distance between their elbow and wrist is a journey, a path lined with the whispers of dreams and the echoes of past triumphs. Even their shoe size, a … Continue reading Intrinsic Poetry
