Red sunsets blaze, Yellow daffodils amaze. Emerald forests shine, Sapphire skies, divine. Golden light ascends, Rainbow beauty never ends. ©️anie

I find myself constantly thinking about this Warsan Shire’s poem. How many times have we had to find comfort in another person’s body because home was out to tear us into pieces?

Actionable Faith Steps, forward, backwards Each of them matter the most when you know why they are important to take, to leave, to move, to breathe... Signs everywhere, signboards— huge capital letters invisible yet printed in your mind screaming yet being kind to you reminding you of your power - that you keep giving to someone else outside... no Reclaim - reclaim - reclaim initiate, believe— move with the flow there's a lot more to come... ashwini

You are behind all my words You fill them, burn them, empty them You are my saliva and my mouth Even my silence is worried about you. Poet: Alain Borne [France, 1915-1962]

the street drips thoughts on a dangerous game of driving in the dark where our ante is to confront the unspeakable with nothing more than noir ambition hard-boiled & cracked by memories that menace like a film from which we cannot look away

I am a funny person. Of course, now they call me crazy. If I wasn't as ridiculous in their eyes as before, it could be said that they would promote me. But now I don't regret it anymore, they are all dear to me even when they laugh at me - and in fact, when they laugh at me, they are more dear to me. I could laugh with them too – not at myself exactly, but because of my fondness for them, if I didn't feel so sad when I looked at them. Sad because they don't know the truth and I do.

Today is Sunday. For the first time they took me out into the sun today. And for the first time in my life I was aghast that the sky is so far away and so blue and so vast I stood there without a motion. Then I sat on the ground with respectful devotion leaning against the white wall. Who cares about the waves with which I yearn to roll Or about strife or freedom or my wife right now. The soil, the sun and me… I feel joyful and how. "Nazim Hikmat"

Rumi: Love is the water of life, Drink it down with heart and soul. Love is a gift from the divine, It is the path that will make you whole. Love is the light in the darkness, It is the healing of every scar. Love is the wings of the spirit, It will carry you near and far. Love is the fire that burns within, It is the reason we are alive. Love is the one true power, It is the force that helps us thrive. So open your heart to love, And let its beauty unfold. For love is the key to happiness, It is the greatest treasure to behold.

I never want My two eyes in no space float ah except in your eyes For love and its objects I don't want anything Neither relation nor continuity And no, I never ask for any identity I don't want anything These unrestrained disturbances me and you be languages and be members of its alphabet. Poet: #Adonis [Syria, 1930]

We speak with the lip, and we dream in the soul, Of some better and fairer day; And our days, the meanwhile, to that golden goal Are gliding and sliding away. Now the world becomes old, now it is young, But " The Better " is ever the word on the tongue. And it is not a dream of a fancy proud, With a fool for its dull begetter; There's a voice at the heart that proclaims aloud — " We are born for a something Better! " And that Voice of the Heart, oh, ye may believe, Will never the Hope of the Soul deceive! "Friedrich Schiller"
