She is a garden I treasure, With fresh white roses as her presence, Holding the fragrance of kind words even at times of my anger or stress, A bliss she is, her smiling dew drops glitter like diamonds on her roses of trust on me! She holds the softest grass in her garden when she accepts me as I am, Making me realise myself in the most secure place for the trust I have on her while I reap the blessings of her affection consistently! π€ Green trees of her nature gives me the shade of wisdom in realising the gifts I am blessed even while facing the worst of problems! My life, she makes each day, So calm through her selfless nature, β€ In making me realise the value of myself! Each day brings joy for me, π₯° Today is more special as I celebrate my precious garden's birthday, β€ As a sister or a reliable friend, With her alone, I never need to prove each day on the responsibility I have for her, For she gives me the space to be myself, π¨ While understanding me through my efforts! β A precious garden of mine is SHE! My dearest Nicole, my lovely sister, my best friend, β€ (( Happy Birthday to you π₯°)) - Aatheera {Lovely Nicole - May you have the best of days with good health and peace forever, Love you my precious Sister β€} Refreshingly beautiful |

Medicinal Lie
My veins cry from the burning torment of the medicinal lie that ravages the emptiness of my soul I pretend itβs an elixir healing me as I escape gravity while still grounded within the nothingness that led me down this road Lost within a lost journey begging for someone to help me walk the twelve steps back to where I first started so that I have the courage to say no |

Artistic Possibilities
If only an artist could paint the future every color of curiosity blending colors ideas and desires so that the abstract world becomes life's masterpiece Or maybe an author could use the empty pages of expectations to write a story about a dream for a new day being as beautiful as we want our reality Imagine a musician inspired by the sound of the morning sun burning tiny droplets of dew used each glistening blade of grass to write a song about love abut life about the artistic possibilities of what tomorrow could be |

Never Real
It is a relentless mist falling like a subtle reminder that the storm has yet to pass Its whispers reveal the sound of the thunder that tears me apart as if my soul's thirst needed to be quenched by a never ending pain Love unfair are the secrets that fall like raindrops from the heavens muddying trust with the confusion that exposes the roots of forever It is a relentless mist that reveals the darkness once painted so beautiful by the light of not knowing it was never real |

Muffled
Tears articulated the questions that poured from my soul as the depth of emptiness was encased within the picture the mirror painted The art of sorrow abstract like the memories I've tried to forget doesn't hurt as much as the memories I cannot forget I try silence as if I have nothing to say yet the screams within my heart tells the story of just how much this has left me speechless Dying too often is like the whispers that are loud enough to hear yet too muffled to really understand and only time can answer the questions that pour from my soul |

Love

Were I blind, I would still understand that word which is a language of it's own. I hear it in the two honks of a car horn when a neighbour departs his family. I feel it when it rains. Cats and dogs nest in your lap, damp and comforted. I smell it when my spouse cooks my favorite meal. The burning wicks, the aroma of freshly picked flowers, it is our constant companion, dining at our table. If I were not blind, I could find manuscripts dedicated to this word, craving to get it just right in feather and pen. It has been carved on trees, in caves and tattooed on flesh. Worn on finger, wrist and neck, even a daisy chain to crown Mother with it. The grasp of newborn fingers elicits it, and when you receive a warm smile that smoulders like an anointing over you, know you have been touched by it. It is instinctual. At towering bridges it posts 'post it' notes. They hold on to you, not allowing you to jump, as your tears stream to join the waters that flow to the sea - reminding you we are one. There is art in your words!!!! |

Unfair
Heavy Painful hurt like happiness abandoned in the middle of time's most precious moment Never thought that before me I would mourn you I want to ask why yet it doesn't matter there is no reason why death hurts so much and even more when a child dies |

Mired in the Sun's Rain
I want to be mired in the moment when the sun's passion slowly awakens the dark with elegant strokes of light that paints dawn the color of everything beautiful To inhale and feel the day's awakening within the depths of my soul as if time was giving the new day the breath to reveal night's secrets And slowly as time passes exhale the heartaches to the rhythm of the sun's rain as my thoughts drown in the morning dew's glistening brilliance I want to be mired in the freedom of shadows that no longer fear the regrets of yesterday to be the me that dances as if the world is watching and know that I am alive |

Stretched Across
Random lines of uncomfortable love stretch across her femininity like beautiful scars They are seemingly woven into her flesh by time and life anew Defining her as a mother defining her as a caregiver defining her as the strongest person who will ever live |
