it can't quite explain this feeling
I've heard so much about mending broken hearts, with time, with love, with the right person
but I never hear about the hearts that are so shattered they can never fit back together
I never hear about the hearts that have been betrayed and tormented countless times
I never hear about how guarded and closed off our hearts become, and how truly nothing feels as though it can break through
I never hear about how deep, whirl wind, soul tied love feels impossible - is my heart even capable anymore ?
I never hear, about hearts like mine

Ojos de Angel / Angel Eyes
Le dicen Ojos de Angel, ya que todos juran que pueden ver la eternidad en ellos. Esa verdad oculta, cubierta de misterios.
Otros juran que han visto a Dios reflejado dentro. Que en vez de verse a si mismos encuentran el significado de la vida.
Le dicen Ojos de Angel, pero nunca nadie le ha preguntado de que forma los llamaría, ya que si les diera nombre, Ojos de Fe serían.
They call him Angel Eyes, for everyone swears they can see eternity in them. That hidden truth, covered by mystery.
Others swear they've seen God reflected inside. That instead of seeing themselves they find the meaning of life.
They call him Angel Eyes, but no one has asked him how he would call them, for if he were to name them they would be named Eyes of Faith.

I no longer ask myself why. I refuse to question things further. What we allow to slip through the shadows as humans was supposed to be to some degree. It'll strengthen me, before it'll ever kill me. I know things have changed and we've became who we've become. We turned into the people our parents warned us about. The ones they swore we should've avoided. But, I'm learning how to navigate this life without regretting a thing. Because, how else would I learn freedom of choice without making a few mistakes in the darkness. We know what we're supposed to do but, the freedom to do as we please causes us to falter. The people they warned us about were mere imperfect humans trying to survive life, just like us. So, what are we so afraid of? The uncertainty of life or the disappointment of knowing? The rarity of living or the security of simply surviving? I don't want to die here - unfulfilled and lulled to sleep by my downfalls. I'd rather live here - fulfilled by my passions and dreams while finding a new way to make it. So, like I said...I'm no longer questioning...just doing as much as possible.

High on Colors
green is the gold of memories
fields and meadows of . . .
lavender daydreams
delight, enchant, elevate
my senses and my spirit
me . . . a daydreamer, daydreaming . . .
in infinite hues of blue . . .
escaping into facets of nature
dissipating into passing cantaloupe clouds
drifter, dreamer, poet
sky pilot high on colors

it’s important to remember what we allow to slip through the shadows is always hard to retrieve for me it was my anger i let it go when i was young anger lived in the holes in the walls, in the words in the air, in my father’s eyes i did not want anger to live in me, too but as i grew older, it was not there when I needed it a classmate pushed me on the playground and i wondered what i’d done my brother called me names and i sighed and shut my mouth my grandmother judged and criticized and i reshaped myself like clay around the snide remarks no one ever told me that anger could be more than yelling through the night and not talking in the morning or holes in the walls  and leverage, leverage, leverage no one ever told me it could help be careful of throwing things away before you learn their value --r.a.b. @writtenconsiderations

Allowed to Slip Through
Tumblr media
What do you allow to slip through your shadows...
Is there room for the light of a new day that can chase away your shades
Can you begin to see light at the end of every tunnel and around each corner
With this do your shadows then begin to simply slide further away into the recesses of your heart and mind, leaving you room to put on a good face until the night returns
In the light of day do your shadows plot to keep you awake in the night reminding you of all your faults as they dance in the darkness of your now lightless being...
Allow in the light, so much light that it leaves the shadows and shades of your life nowhere to reside
Make them flee from you in such away that they can only return as a passing thought that is quickly whisked away without any concern of their existence
What do you allow to slip through your shadows, there is nothing allowed to pass them by but the light you hold that makes them run away if you want them to...

Let me know what you think and pass the thought along my friends.

everyone wants to chase the sun
but I want to catch the moon
and when I do
I'd bring it right back home
to you
~you are the moon of my life

Winter Wonders
Winter has finally set in!!!!
Snow covers the grounds, while you fall in.
Next day, ice sets in!
It crunches under your heals, as you're thrown in
The icy weather that blankets the ground to win.
The icy wonderland whites and crystals reign
As we tobogan, having fun, again.
And as always, on your way home, you watch the plane
Flying passengers to the warmth of the sun.
My heart says: 'Never again!'
'Shall I pass this road without the wonder
Of flight and drizzle following my thunder.
I reach for its boisterous boom, all aflutter,
Hoping that with each step i learn about myself and the other.
The best knowledge to impart is to always be kinder.
Kind towards others,
Loving to family,
Respectful to colleagues and strangers,
Honest with yourself, fully
Understanding yourself and the need for your piety.

and it never let me go.
Writing prompt: “What we allow to slip through the shadows” from @writtenconsiderations 
AO3 ver.
You took from me the very essence of what I am, destroying what I was and leaving me to wonder what I will be.
As I floated on my lonesome, allowing the sound of endless shatters to engrave itself into the cold emptiness of my heart, I began to wonder: what was it all for? Is this all that love is? Is this where I'm meant to be?
The fragments of these thoughts alone carried me through each day, my mind wondering where it all went wrong and what could possibly be gained from it. I thought I was alone, for what else was I supposed to think? What else was I supposed to feel?
So, I listened to the sadness within my heart and began wandering the endless expanse of stars without caring if they caved within themselves into blackened holes, sucking up everything within its vicinity; leaving nothing within its wake. I was nothing but a stray set adrift, a forgotten set of shattered glass no one bothered to pluck from the galaxy among them.
Yet, when I thought there was nothing left of me, a comet flew in my direction and took me by the hand. In that moment, there was electricity and all I saw was the prismatic colors of the worlds passing me by and the soft twinkle of the other stars that have been crying out for me to hold on.
The universe, in all its splendor, had sent me its brightest to pull me from the shadows.
So allowed to slip through the shadows the blossom of hope that remained and allowed myself to bask in the fragrance of what could be love. We traveled the nebulas in a fractured path without care; passing through clusters of beautifully lit remnants of celestial bodies that, although apart, remained bold and strong amidst the darkness. It was then I was reminded of what love was.
I found it when it found me, in the palm of its hands.

All flowers share
the presumption
of beauty
despite their thorns,
assembled
in tender buds
that open outwards
towards the sun,
they flourish as a
tribute to viridity,
shining a light
around the world
with their beauty,
because that’s what
flowers do—
blossom
then wane,
a consequence
of the serendipitous
myth of Spring,
the eternal promise
that all things lost
or decayed,
will one day
be known again.

Through the Shadows
What we allow to slip through the shadows is:
The fears that lurk in the corner of our minds, just there, hiding in the daylight they come, full force as soon as shadows fall.
The demons that wait in order to bring you down as soon as you lower your guard, those angry monsters that rejoice in your pain.
On the other side: Hope, one that makes you fight the demons and fears, it whispers that you’re strong enough to face whatever comes your way.
There is something too: Love, A sort of love you didn’t look for, fierce and passionate that takes our breath away making you surrender without question giving your heart a reason to go on.

I haven't written traditional writing with structure in forever. So, here's my attempt to do so. Please critique me, I think I did this wrong. Still learning how to truly write other type of poetry structures outside of mental dumps and free write...cheers to @writtenconsiderations for a great writing prompt!
[Objective: Nature & Love | Required Words: Rust, leaf, dim, fall, crept | Aim: Traditions 5/7/5 Haiku]
Dim, I fall like leaf
Fall, I rust for a reason
Unknown, love crept in
Dim, love crept in
Fall, I rust for a reason
Daydreaming on leaf
Fall often, leaf me, dim
for a reason uncertain
Seasons crept in bliss
Seasons crept in, fall
Dim, I rust for reasons,
becoming leaf, again
Creation birthed
Dim people, rust like fall leaf,
Sin crept in with them

A Time Capsule
time, cuts through bone
erodes hardest stone
etching fragments of history
two rivers toward awaiting
sea rush, roar, surge . . .
through misty mountaintop mysteries
forming chapters
forging flowery valleys
along the way
flooding our entire plane
. . . of existence, of persistent
tidal eddies to white-water rapids
upstream, downstream
we flow, we fight, we resist,
we let go, move ahead . . .
continue on our journey
to the ocean
great depths of spirit
prophetic, poetic
every moment
futurized in a time capsule
captured for eternity

Despite the night sweats,
my body, involuntarily starts
moving, rather clumsily, to
the tunes of Imagine Dragons,
as if inviting the devils,
who had spent their midnight hours
chasing me, to jump
ropes with me, this morning.
Telling them that, though
they have me by the neck
most of the times, on some days, I
can still wriggle
out of their clutches,
unfettered and undaunted.
