On my journey from the self to the self around the world. All my poetry comes to life on this path and is an expression of my personal truth of our excistence. Take a look at my visual expression on Instagram @tashinaviola

Ugly stares

Have you ever, have you ever felt the eyes of a hungry beast lingering upon you?

Have you ever, have you ever seen the fantasies on a stranger’s face when he looks at you?

Have you ever, have you ever done the same thing to a wandering beauty on the streets?

Have you ever, have you ever thought that there might be more… more beauty within?

Have you ever, have you ever imagined how it must feel knowing how those fantasies stare holes into your body?

Have you ever, have you ever considered just letting that beautiful being BE?

Have you ever, have you ever realized that your ugly stares might take away her beauty entirely?

Pain

Pain, is what I feel. Each, and every day. For we hurt each other. For we kill each other. For we refuse to love. For we refuse to look. We would rather judge. We would rather be numb. We would rather fight. We would rather, stand still. Instead of knowing our heart. Instead of feeling the pain. Instead of getting lost. Instead of forgiving and loving. Why don't we see? The light we could be?

We are a mystery filled with the unknown. Behind every corner a new something unfolds, revealing itself at last. A myster it is because we have no control over it and certainly no knowledge about it. Our soul slowly unveils, step by step..only as fast as we can take it. This uncertainty can easily drive you mad, do things to you which you do not understand and leave you restless. But isn’t this life filled with mysteries so utterly beautiful? An endless road of new sights, new feelings, new state of minds and new horizons. Aren’t those mysteries incredibly exciting and interesting?..and exactly what everyone is looking for? Only we want to experience them with control, want them to happen when we want to. But, how can you control something which you do not know of? Something you don’t know the essence of? Something you don’t even know is unknown? 

These mysteries might sometimes feel unpleasant to you. They might feel like an unwanted sickness, you really don’t need them right now. But they force you to your knees regardless. If you let them unfold completely, let them show their true and pure nature, you’ll always, always! see their beauty. For mother earth, the universe and with that every tiny part of it, is beautiful! Dive head first into the depths and mysteries of your existence. You’re travelling through terra incognita, exploring the undiscovered universe within.

Suddenly, 

unexpected, 

deep within, 

a feeling, 

is knocking.. 

Dock Dock. 

Slowly, 

steadily, 

with persistence, 

growing louder... 

and louder. 

Until, 

it's.. 

roaring, 

screaming, 

hammering! 

and you, 

have to face, 

the repressed. 

Now, 

at full speed, 

on full volume, 

with full power, 

this feeling, 

suddenly, 

unexpected, 

and completely owns you. 

At last, 

you, 

beautiful being, 

filled with feelings, 

surrender.. 

And finally, 

heal, 

what should have 

been healed, 

all along.

Getting lost

The unknown,

is hiding,

behind all

the known.

You cannot,

escape which

is unknown. 

Get lost

in darkness,

and see,

the depths,

within you. 

You might,

even find

the universe.

The Rain

Rain,

soft as velvet,

fierce as thunder,

shouts angrily

the unsaid.

Ripped out

of your soul,

so violently,

the blood

does not cease,

to flow.

It stops..

Left behind,

wounded,

and vulnerable

like a newborn. 

Patiently nurturing,

the wounds,

before they scar.

Rain,

soft as velvet,

fierce as thunder,

revealing slowly

the Truth.
