A Poet's Continuum

I am many things but most consistently, I am a poet. I'm here to share my work, my life, and ideas with you. Original work is tagged #amberxleverette

ancient promises

How do we unentangle and split this common soul? How do we remove and separate these joining lines like the lines etched on our palms? we’re bound by ancient promises neither of us utter but somehow we both understand,

How do I begin to unsee your face in a sky full of swirling stars?

He spoke to her in a language that she had long since forgotten

Reminded her that her reflection is golden even in the dark

That she is light, and life, and warmth

Meaning she is necessary for existence

And impossible to replace

And any pieces of herself that she would lend him

He'd plant and nurture like seeds

So that her light would be always growing

He could never let himself be selfish with her love

And she would never allow his name to be forgotten

My skin is

evil incarnate:

suffocating

ideas until they

turn into

endless sky, dragging

us down to

a molten core where

not even

midnight

could survive.

Please, keep looking. Not for a person, but for your passion, your love, your courage, your goals, your dreams, your happiness, yourself. Keep looking. Explore yourself before you explore another. Know your worth, know yourself. Only then will you know what you need over what you want. You need yourself to become your own.

“The sun is within me, and so is the moon.”

— Kabir, “There’s A Moon Inside My Body” (via wordsnquotes)

[abiding-in-peace]

Because of an innocent misunderstanding you think that you are a human being in the relative world seeking the experience of oneness, but actually you are the One expressing itself as the experience of being a human being.

Unexpectedly Smitten

The man by the water The violinist It’s worth the mention That I said the night was beautiful but really you stole the show We breathed air that carried notes And made music of our silence Creating muses with the movement of your eyelids We shouldn’t play with fire But I did The warm walk across coals for you What is cold with you Your insecurities are what I’m into Your eyes are just who confide in mine The air was what I needed that night But you – you are what I breathed in So when I tell you to ease into our season It’s worth the mention That I’m past the fall

You have to become the energy you want to attract.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

When I fall for you, I don’t need someone there  to catch me. I need someone there by my side falling with me and embracing me through the impact, never letting go: even though it may sting, even though we may crumble, even though we may never come up for air again. So fall with me. Take a deep breath and fall in, my love.

S. Renea (via rewriting-the-world)
