Sometimes I don't have grandiloquent words to say; sometimes I, too, get struck with silence, with the magnificency of this world; I,too, am just a human connecting with other humans, with myself, with nature.

We tend to be so appalled by life,

escaping it from time to time

I used to run to fantasy worlds,

books where the main character I was.

And I didn't realise,

we seem to forget all the time,

that we already are

the protagonists of our own lives.

I wanted to say that

In the dark moments you've got to keep shining,

I wanted to say that

when situations or people want to drag you down

it's when you have to show your real spirit,

I wanted to say that

the best revenge is a smile and a life well lived;

I wanted to say encouraging and positive things,

but I can't say them.

I can't say you have to keep shining because I'm burning,

I can't say that ultimately our spirit is the only thing we have because I'm burning,

I can't say no to revenge because I want to see people suffer.

I can't say any of these affirmations

because still deep down in me

there's a beast claiming for blood

all the time;

all this violence lightly kept down

by a thin brittle line;

still wanting to destroy,

to commit everything to the fire

with my own two hands.

🎃🎃

And suddenly caught myself humming

and singing under my breath

"The fires are burning

the wheel will soon spin,

come now birds and share with me

this food for the ancestors I bring;

Maiden and Mother are gone,

and wiser has become the Crone.

Ancestors, Daimones and Gods,

come now to share this offering I brought"

I was a witch yesterday for my birthday!

Skirt handmade and the hat too. Shoes are Koi.

I'm trying to regain my creativity and passion for creating for my brand by making things for myself, too

Existing

As a half creature torn

between Land and Sea,

not knowing if it wants to be

mermaid or beast.

Lost between dream and reality,

not wanting to wake up and yet

not giving in to sleep,

afraid and lazy to move either way.

Depreciated again

and doubting where's the self worth,

the value

and the flaw in the character that makes all

come crumbling down.

And then.

Swallowing deep and

recognizing it for what it is

a trap of the ego,

coming from the back door unannounced,

and toying with the feelings

of a once hurt child on mending.

How not to let the optimism of Spring get in, when all the flowers bloom and the magpies sing.
