On this day of gratitude and thanks giving,
I want to say that I'm insanely grateful for
Hello Poetry and all the poets who share it
with me.  Knowing I can write my feelings
and emotions and share them with other
like-minded souls has been an almost religious 
 blessing in my life.  And I want to thank you
all, each and every one of you.
And wish you a very
                         HAPPY  THANKSGIVING
Probably can't get this to post today, but I'l keep trying.
I'm Eeyore. A dark cloud's
hanging over me, raining wine and
poetry. I won't leave the house. The sun
doesn't rouse me. I can't even leave

my bedroom. I'm so drowsy. Every day
is the same, lousy. Pulling the blankets
over my head, sinking in as a hibernating
bear. I'd like this year to disappear. It's a task

to brush my teeth, wash my face,
and join the human race. Men tell me to snap
out of it. Look at the bright side of things!
Count your blessings! But I'm a slug. And this

world is a treadmill looping around
and moving the ground under my feet. Colorful
collage of mixed messages scrambled together
that I can't encode. Slipping through my hands
like a muddy toad.
I saw an old man crying at
the precipice of his sanity,
ten stories above the sea,
and the world at his feet, a helo-deck:
a principality that had the worn out lay of home.

So trivialized.
So fantasized.
So immobilized.
Transmitting pirate-radio-waves eternally.

Seized the tower.
Hoisted the flag.
Crowned the queen.

"I've no blood right, only a passport," he said. "But do have the right mindset: I can't leave, we're so dangerous. Don't be a stranger now, we'll never be this dangerous again..."
Leap into love and the net will appear
When love calls, go
Anywhere may lead to forever
You must take the chance
When it beckons
Gamble on romance
Fly a thousand miles
Or maybe none at all
As long as you’re open to it
After all, it’s why you are here
To love and be loved
Your destiny is to meet
Your dearly beloved

I want to beat my mind
Whenever I feel scared
I want to beat my mind
Whenever I feel sad
I want to beat my mind
Whenever I feel angry
I want to beat my mind
Whenever I feel stuck

I want to drag myself over the trenches
I want to push myself through the rain
I want to force my eyes upon the good things in life
I want to fly myself to the future

This is what's keeping me back. Me.
And I intend to change that,
one change at a time.

I want to beat my own mind.
emotions are amazing, but I've came to accept that often I let them hold me back.

no more.
Il bacio appena sognato
in una notte di tradimenti,
dove tutti consumano amplessi
che non hanno profumo,
il tuo bacio febbricitante,
il candore delle tue labbra,
somiglia alla mia porta
che non riesco ad aprire.
Il bacio è come una vela,
fa fuggire lontano gli amanti,
un amore che non ti gela
che ti dà mille duemila istanti.
** cercato di ricordare
che potevi tornare indietro,
ma ahimè il tuo bacio
è diventato simile a un vetro.
Io come un animale
mi rifugio nel bosco
per non lasciare ovunque
il mio candido pelo.
Il pelo della mia anima
è così bianco e così delicato
che persino un coniglio ne trema.
Tu mi domandi quanti amanti ** avuto
e come mi hanno scoperto.
Io ti dico che ognuno scopre la luce
e ognuno sente la sua paura,
ma la mia parte più pura è stata il bacio.
Io tornerei sui monti d'Abruzzo,
dove non sono mai stata.
Ma se mi domandano
dove traggono origine i miei versi,
io rispondo:
mi basta un'immersione nell'anima
e vedo l'universo.
Tutti mi guardano con occhi spietati,
non conoscono i nomi delle mie scritte sui muri
e non sanno che sono firme degli angeli
per celebrare le lacrime che ** versato per te.
She's truly beautiful in life
And my world to and
She means everything to me
The perfect Angel from above
And she'll always be
Forever in my heart with me.
My Heart 💜
My World 🌍
Hold on,
The boss wants to see me now!
As soon as possible(ASAP).
Doesn't he know,
It took my mum NINE months to see me.
