Who loves, cares …

beatrizesmer

In the tender embrace of love lies the seed of responsibility, a commitment that extends beyond oneself. A love that nurtures not only the soul, but also the ties that bind us to our kin, our community, and our homeland. It may seem daunting, but in its essence, it is strikingly uncomplicated, for I can discern no alternative path. For when love blooms within, it compels us to tend to our own well-being, to safeguard the ones dearest to us, and to foster unity within our community. It beckons us to care for the land that cradles us, to cherish … Continue reading Who loves, cares …

Birds 

beatrizesmer

Someone once told me she expected me to start speaking with the birds outside my window, to become one with the sky and the whispers of the wind. I smiled and said, “I have never spoken with a bird before, but I imagine their conversations are filled with the poetry of the heavens. I would probably ask if they were ever envious of things that cannot take flight.” In the quiet moments of solitude, I often find myself gazing at the birds as they dance upon the air, their wings brushing against the canvas of the sky. I wonder what … Continue reading Birds

Father

Father, where are my wings? I yearn to soar above the world, to leave behind the weight of my weary heart and ascend into the boundless sky. Why did you bestow upon me such strength, only to watch me stumble and fall? I am but a fallen angel, a creature of grace burdened by the weight of earthly woes. Father, can you hear me? Where do I place the dreams you held for me, the aspirations that once danced within your gaze? Where do I find the fortitude that you instilled in me, the resilience that was meant to carry … Continue reading Father

But in the midst of the chaos, I found the strength to endure. I weathered the storm, … Continue reading I survived him

Madalena da Paz feelings

All I have left of him is his scent, a fragile fragment of memory that I cradle in the palm of my hand. It’s a piece of cut cloth from what used to be our pillow, a relic of the days when our lives were intertwined, our dreams woven together in the fabric of our shared existence. Now, it’s all I have, wrapped in clear plastic to shield it from the ravages of time and the cruelty of the elements. He has left behind a tangle inside of me, a knot of emotions and longing that will take years to … Continue reading Madalena da Paz feelings

The fool within me …

beatrizesmer

In the depths of my being, I must learn to embrace the fool within me—the one who dances with emotions too fervently, who speaks with a heart laid bare, and who dares to take risks that lead to both triumph and defeat. This fool within me lacks the restraint of self-control yet brims with a love that knows no bounds. This fool loves with an intensity that ignites the soul, yet also harbors the capacity for both adoration and disdain. It’s a paradoxical dance of light and shadow, where hurt and healing intertwine, where promises are made and at times, … Continue reading The fool within me …

In your presence, the boundaries of my world tremble, and the walls I’ve built around my heart begin to crumble. You are a tempest, a force that defies reason and logic, stirring within me a belief in the extraordinary. Your words are like whispers from a realm of dreams, weaving enchanting tales of possibilities that defy the constraints of reality. You are a catalyst, igniting the flames of hope and daring me to reach for the stars.

Our planet

beatrizesmer

Our planet, a fragile orb suspended in the vastness of the cosmos, spins delicately, a tiny jewel in the expanse of the universe. Our time in history is marked by fragility, division, and tension, a period where the threads of humanity seem strained and taut. Amidst this tumultuous tapestry, we must never forget that the sustenance of our world, the perpetuity of our existence, can only ever be rooted in one thing: Love. It is not about being right or having our way, nor is it about surrender or the resolution of problems. This love resides on an entirely different … Continue reading Our planet
