Windows to life

Watching windows pass by, opportunities coming and going
Never do you know what it all might bring,
never do you know the dream hiding

Only by doing will you find out,
only by trying will the future be revealed

Watching lives pass by, possibilities not fulfilled
Never can you know what would have happened,
if you do not try for yourself

A window, a life, opportunities, possibilities
It's all there waiting for you, if only you dare leave
the box you hide within

Open the door, enter the room
Stop just watching windows
but become a part of the film yourself.

Releasing pain

Howling to the sky in agony abandoning all control
Releasing the pain which soars through the body like nails
Tearing wail after wail bounce between the walls
Echoing the burning throes buried inside

Leaving me empty when the voice loses its power
Exhausted I tremble as the sobs make their way out
Fat tears over my cheeks dry up as the source stills
Nothing left but a numb empty shell when I silently stand

Last petal

The petals fall from the rose,
one by one drifting to the barren ground
Silent they float upon the breeze,
which will not blow again
Bright red like drops of precious blood,
one at a time, lonely and lost

To fade to browns that covers the ground
Dry and barren earth,
with no nourishment left

Unmoving the stalk remains standing,
black and lifeless against the heavy sky

The last petal drifts slowly down
Hits the ground and breaks into dust
No ray of sunlight will ever warm that rose again
For now nothing is left, but dead memories and pain

It's over.

Mourning

I cry for the dreams broken
I cry for the life together now lost
I cry for all the things I hoped for,
all the dreams I had,
the fantasies about you which now never will come true

I cry for what we could have had together
I cry for losing you from my life
The things we could have built
The things we could have created
The things we could have grown

I cry for what you and I could have become together
The special unity, the merging of souls
The lives which would have sprung from our union

I cry for my love for you
I cry for my loss
I cry for a future dreamt of,
which now won't ever happen with you.

Prayer

Please help me heal from this pain,
before it tears me apart
Please help me forget and let go,
so I am no longer reminded
Please help me become strong enough,
that I won't be left crawling
Please give me faith and hope,
when darkness threatens the vision
Please give me the ability to trust,
that this is for the better
Please don't take away all my dreams,
for what would I be without them
Please give me room to grow,
and overcome this soaring agony
Please let me feel true love again,
so I won't die cold and lonely.

Exploration

Exploring the world which is opening before me.
Taking a step at a time, what will appear beyond the horizon?
Exciting this is, a discovery of passions and desires, of dreams and wants.
Treading upon new ground, paths formed in the green grass,
walking towards the distant sights, one step at a time.

To try new things, to explore the unknown.
Revelation upon revelation, new things learned and felt.
Every day something else, life can never become the same again, will not remain.
Change is completely upon me and cannot be reversed.
Here and now upon a fascinating journey, one step at a time.

New worlds open, opportunities arise.
All I need to do is to open my eyes, and see what now comes.
Lying before me, everything ready to pluck, fruits ripe and juicy if only I take.
What to choose, what to pick, the decisions are only mine.
Endless possibilities awaiting me, one step at a time.

Old poems by Namida VI

It's clear to see how Namida grows as a character, but also how my skills writing poems and my style changes and improves.

Two lovers

Softly bare feet tread the sweet green grass
Fragrances arise from flowers crushed underneath
Softly the wind caresses the tanned bare skin
The sun beating warmly down in gentle waves

Hand in hand, walking by the tinkling stream
Laughing softly, sharing happily that which is
Living in the moment, fleetingly like a dream
Two lovers playing, cool water spraying wetly

Tender embraces, in love true to soul and heart
Meeting in passion, fulfilling a desire of lust
Laying in the sun, bare skin lightened by strokes
Caresses tender, skin upon skin, connecting souls

Slowly light fades, gentle breezes of eve brush by
Golden hair shining in the light of the setting sun
Flowing lightly upon a soft breeze of fragrance
Walking softly beside each other, heading for home

The sky turning to purple and blues, reflecting softly
In a lake of calm, waters deep surrounding an island
Boldly rising a castle grand, towers and spires tall
Crossing a bridge, entering and greeted by servants

A Lord and Lady, walking side by side, in tender love
Ruling in justice and kindness, loved by those below
A bath taken, to wash clean bodies from lovemaking
Dressing finely in robes suited for a banquet of joy

Celebrating the riches of the land, celebrating love
Sharing in unison a glass of wine, gazing deeply
Into eyes filled with passion and tenderness prized
Slowly standing, leaving a filled table with delight

Walking softly, murmuring intimately of love true
Towards private chambers, to lie in silk closely
Undressing slowly, letting eyes take in of beauty
To join in love and passion, another day is over


Passions

Passions filling my being by the thought of you
Intensely growing to incomparable heights of joy
Never faltering, only increasing by each touch
Would this be what is most true and full of love

In nights dreams are shared, a future by your side
Filled with love so tender, a dream come true
For a Dancer dear, so handsome and fulfilling
All that a humble woman as I can dream of having

Nothing more can be asked for, but loving you
To be loved by you brings me more joy in life
Than anything else, no matter what is put before me
To be in your presence, to feel your touch and love

Strong willed we both are of mind, soul and heart
With dreams strong, goals that we want to reach
To stand by your side, being the one you long for
To be my true self, growing in your presence

To full potential, a rose is blooming in the light
Light of love, tenderness, passion, so true
With you I can become all I ever was meant to be
In the light of your love, I will become complete


Flowers

One drop falling, hitting an unprotected leaf
Sending shivers through all the petals
Slowly they open, stretching to embrace
A ray of light, revealing hungrily the inner

As snowdrops stand side by side with crocus
Daisies and dandelions flowering in a wide field
Standing in a bed of flower, blooming to all
Fuchsia, gardenia and lavender, sending fragrances

Wafting upon a gentle breeze, from a garden rich
Mugwort, violet, poppy and roses in beautiful colours
Red, white and yellow forming a symphony of love
Bordered by star-flowers, red tulips and valerians

Slowly all the petals open, ready to receive
The warm drops of rain, the gentle touches of light
Trembling with passion and anticipation, waiting
Forever by your side, filled with love undying and true


Ode

In the Glory of Love, all flowers bloom
Petals open to reveal of their inner being
Tenderly they embrace what is freely given
In Trust and Faith, treasuring True gifts

To shine in the Joy of Presence, fulfilling
In Honour and Valour strong, is freely given
A Love that is incomparable, to Man and Beast
Largesse surrounds the Heart, Wisdom the Mind

In Honour of Her Majesty, may all flowers Bloom


Deep into the night

Deep into the night, a dream slowly comes alive
Whispered hushed to an ear, words of love true
No words can ever express, what feelings are inside
Strongly does the hope shine bright, not to falter
A gift so precious given, in the name of love for you

My heart beats with joy, to think of your embrace


Dawn

Slowly dawn lightens the dark sky of night
Darkness fades lingeringly as the sun rises
The sky turning from pitch black of night
Fading with light, slowly the blue can be seen

Hope rises in the heart of dreams, dancing
Beating with joy and faith, in belief of truth
