“Tend to your own garden and watch the beauty you begin to see in others.”

You were waiting for the sunset while I was longing for the moonrise.

If hearts are our homes, why do we let others break windows and throw stones?

Whole, loved and worthy just as you are.

From each scar today bloom the flowers of a kinder tomorrow.

You are already more than enough.

Don’t reorient yourself to fit in to an upside down world.

Let’s get perfectly lost recklessly joyful, let’s rest a while in this sweet reverie.

Love me as a storm would rage full force or not at all.

You keep planting sympathy in rows meant for empathy and I’m here picking weeds with tears in my eyes.

Poetry runs through tired veins reviving once sleeping souls.

Less rushing, more lingering. Less distraction, more noticing. Less comparison, more gratitude.

Stars fell in our eyes the night sky our canvas, we painted the moon red.

I was always looking at you.

Hope is the gentle salve the world needs.

In the rise and fall of all that is let me be your moon, your sun.

I will love you from afar it’s better this way because close up it hurts too much.

I dream about kissing you under the moon-lit night, under the beauty of thousand tiny stars. 

Mathematics reveals its secrets only to those who approach it with pure love, for its own beauty.

She is an all encompassing enigma of beauty and madness don’t attempt to tie her down.

Don’t let the ugly in others kill the beauty in you. Let it inspire you to conjure a worthwhile view. Observe their darkness-like space in between the stars. Acknowledged, yet dazzled with the bright beauty of ours. Their darkness is worthy of unconditional love. Just give their ugly, mercy.

Beauty is a treat for yourself. Don’t blind it with your blindness.

You can find beauty in the darkest of places. Be the light, my love. Bring smiles to their faces.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, they say – Do I see, what is me? Or did his eyes lead me astray?

Poetry isn’t about beautifying the words; Its about stripping off its thick cover and appreciating the rawness.
