I'm always grateful for          
the light of a new day
caressing
my cheek

That's not what gets me most
    but you
                            sheathed by sheets                      
                      while by my side

  See the curtain
    of lashes    

      ╰      ╯        
     ╰  I              S  ╯    
    ╰   R                     E   ╯      


So I can
drink
the coffee
of your eyes


☀️
Hard to believe that I'm on my 990th poem, that's so insane!
Thanks so much for the continuing support, everyone!
Again, just experimenting with something new.
This one's based on a somewhat of a lucid dream I had,
just holding onto some light in this year.
I'm more of a tea person but with I could use some coffee right now lol.
TGIF, seriously.
Stay safe all!
Kind regards,
Lyn ***

Swathed in my caution
I search to find my daring
Fire cracks my egg

I've been long since lost
Colours of the creative
Dulled by daily trudge

I hear the wind call
Fearing the might of my wings
Fall before I fly

Guess who's back! ^-^ on my 995th poem too, ***!
I hope everyone's alright in their part of the world. It's long overdue that I reconnect with my past love. Daily life is droll but I'm slowly finding my colours again. I still don't feel worthy of my pen at times but this is a blessing. Hard to believe that we will be in February tomorrow. May 2023 be a fantastic year for you all! I'll definitely be posting more this year. To reconnect to my inner child and creativity. It's long overdue that I try to spread my wings instead of dealing with the constant fall.
Much love to you beautiful souls out there
P.S - Melissa, this one's for you! ❤️
Take care all!

Φίλησες τα τραύματα μου
Φύσηξες αέρα στα νέα μου πνευμονία
Και για αυτό και μόνο δεν χρειάστηκαν ξένη ιατρική βοήθεια
Παρά μόνο μια δική σου ιαματική μάτια
Μετά από αυτή την εμπειρία
Αποφάσισα να μετακομίσω
Μου πήρες λουλούδια για το νέο μου σπίτι
Που βρισκόταν στη οδό "απόλαυση"
Θες να μάθεις πού είναι;
Στην διασταύρωση της οδού 'εσύ' με την 'εγώ'
Προσπέρνα το πάρκο της ματαιοδοξίας και στρίψε αριστερά εκεί θα δεις το περίπτερο της αμφιβολίας
Αν θελήσεις τσιγάρα μην σταματήσεις
είναι πήχτρα και ό,τι πουλάει έχει τίμημα ακριβό
Προχωρά λίγο παρακάτω στο ψιλικατζίδικο της αμοιβαίας εμπιστοσύνης μπορεί να μην δεις κόσμο εκεί αλλά, η ποιότητα των αντικειμένων προς πώληση είναι ανεκτίμητη.

Η ζωή είναι δύσκολη...
Γιατί να μην την τελειώσω;
Αυτό φαίνεται πιο εύκολο
Δεν είναι;

Και πάλι, είμαι στα πρόθυρα του θανάτου
Δεν είναι περίεργο πώς τελειώνει πάντα έτσι;
You have ruined me.. all I can think of is the sun glinting off your spun-chocolate hair, the infinite depths of your sea-blue eyes. All I dream of is your honeyed voice telling me that I am different; I am loved.

You have ruined me. All I hear is static when you aren’t here, that flat, buzzing, grating sound of nothing and everything coming all at once. All I see is uncertainty and anxiety and empty eyes when you aren’t beside me.

You have ruined me, but so did Apollo to Icarus, and Orpheus to Eurydice. To love is to ruin, and dear god, I am irreparable.
Something I wrote awhile ago and never got around to posting.

Withered and broken

I long to be the flower

Blossoming with ease
Blessed by Aphrodite
Her hair as long and silky as fjord
Her eyes direct gateways into her beautiful and complex mind
Her smile untainted by the hate this painful world unleashes onto us all

Blessed by Aphrodite
Her body curves like the seven sister hills
Her Skin kissed personally by the sun
She is never cold it could be the coldest day of the year but when we touch it as I have ran into burning building

Blessed by Aphrodite
Her mind is puzzle I wish to solve she is loved by everyone around she lacks enemy’s and have friends in abundance
She is perfect in every possible way
No wonder I love her
Bout a beautiful girl
Can find no reason
To leave the comfort of home
When pain is right here.
