CRYSTAL EYES

CRYSTAL EYES

 

Alone in my impenetrable world

No sounds

apart from words

that crystallize in my mind

pirouetting in my head

vivid and alive

indetectable ripples are set in motion

with chladni precision

an avalanche of thoughts

bouncing off subtle prisms

The only constant is the ringing in my ears

Solace shattered

by the martelé of your pique

startling me into rebarbative mood

My peaceful existence fractures

like a crystal glass

into a million shards

I am no longer alone

no longer feel at home

I need urgent reprieve

from this hellhole of a prison

Sometimes I don't even recognize the sound of my own voice

Your chilling words finally cease

and I once more feel serene

Unfortunately…

this is a  space you can’t explore with me

unless of course

you know the right frequency

to senza sordino with my heartstrings

only gentle thoughts and words

can waltz with mine

and only then will I dance

while looking deep into your eternal crystal eyes

the beacon that pulls me out of my silence

WHAT DID I ACHIEVE? (and other thoughts on New years Resolutions and self improvement)

WHAT DID I ACHIEVE?

(and other thoughts on New years Resolutions

and self improvement)

When I said that I had achieved nothing tangible

I sensed a sort of sadness in you

But what I meant was…

there was nothing obvious

that would show you how far Id actually traveled

what new revelations I'd seen…

Secrets that the universe chose to show me,

little me, insignificant me

I wasn’t out there chasing fame or notoriety

It was during cold days of hibernation

Where the marination

of thoughts and ideas

Came into my being

The blinkers taken off

I soon came to realize 
that Id traveled an eternity

in the duration of the entire year

Increments became paradigm shifts ‘

(of awareness)

I learned how to access

information that is contained
in~ordinate realms

I had my eyes opened to both challenge and wonder

that would leave most so completely out of breath

Not to mention 
out of their depth

The mental tenacity it takes to sort

through uncomfortable thoughts

( about self)

I achieve in one year

more than I’d ever thought possible

through my many earth cycles

no wonder I feel so tired all the time!!

From within my core

I’ve rearranged atoms

(and alternate universes)

to which I am intrinsically aligned

I’ve seen ugly truths that keep me awake at night

breaking down previously held and cherished beliefs

dots that were joined,

new terms coined

now need to be sorted and stored

filed... for future reference

And yet

to your eyes,

I’m still the same ol’ me

But tell me...how does one measure their 

DIVIN~i~TEE ?
