Amavi

I miss you deeply, unfathomably, senselessly, terribly ~Franz Kafka

Our morning dance

tenderly

intense

the taste of the moon

nights of violent light

the greed kiss that burns 

my skin drowning in fire

my thighs 

and your love

free to sink

in oceans of me

Lips writing stories

your touch deep in my cells

poems on my teeth

drinking happiness from your glass

and the way you play piano

fills my soul

You sing my morning

And my body

whispers

pull me closer,

pull me closer…

free frequency

The grass is green enough under my feet

And the sun is sun enough

The air reaches my lungs through my nostrils

And there are thousand of poems unread

That’s enough to make me feel good

Pink marker, do you worship a man?

Preaching so called glorious lessons through elevate words

When in fact things are so simple

Because our nature is love

And when I turn off my wifi I still feel good.

I like to take notes

And his screams are reaching my ears

Gasoline sound

He usually sets me on fire through that

But now I managed to stay calm

And the storm he started in me faded away

Because I could see he had a hard day

I could feel compassion

And I accomplished the challenge number three

The one you gave to me

Do something you don’t like and see

that there’s is always a way to set yourself free

Ashes to ashes and words fired up

And when my world goes mad I say stop

I only want the sun to burn me, not anything else

I can’t be like Bukowski

Burning in water, Drowning in flame

Love is love

Love doesn’t bring pain

If you think it does,

Consider to think about it again.

this is important enough: to get your feelings down/ and there is of course madness and terror too/ in knowing that some part of you/ wound up like a clock can never be wound again once it stops/ sad, sad/ your feelings boiling over flame/ get this down ~Charles Bukowski

de pe buze…

Cuvintele mi-au fugit de pe buze

Simțurile au luat-o razna

și-au format

Furtuni de lumină

puternice, devastatoare, difuze

Straturi din mine peste straturi din tine

Zgârieturi discrete 

purtate pe antebraț săptămâni la rând,

Las emoțiile să mă inunde

din când în când

Zilele de luni au gust de extaz

Pe cele de miercuri le transform în haos

Uneori îl măsor cu un compas

Diminețile mă redescopăr

Iar la final de zi îmi ascult liniștea

Și deshid cutia cu zâmbete cu care mă acopăr

Tristețile le las deoparte

De ce să le iau cu mine în pat când pot lua o carte?

“Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth <You owe me>. Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky.” ~Hāfiz, persian poet

A fi și a iubi

Mi-am pictat noaptea în vise

M-am trezit cu gust de tine

într-o dimineață rece

Să aud picuri de ploaie

Să aud sunete de pian

Ploaie de note muzicale

Emoții transformate ușor în rafale

O să îți o aduc cană de ceai fierbinte

amestecat cu iubire

Pentru diminețile cu gust de mentă

Și gândurile mele pierdute în perna ta.

Dezbrăcată de frici și de gânduri,

Tot ce mai am de făcut e 

să scriu,

să iubesc,

să scriu, 

să iubesc.

Saudade

I measure time by the days I’ve spent away from you

that thought occurred to me

as I watched the sky go dark from blue

~Haiku, Lana del Rey

Saudade

The most musical word

I have ever heard

13 May 

In May and everyday

They say it takes 10 thousand hours

to master a skill

Can you master the longing for someone?

And when you get there

What happens?

Do you reach the peak of something close to despair

Or you just feel at peace?

Or maybe 

Resigned

I wonder

I can’t know

I’m longing for someone

But a little different

I have a passion for languages

I am a human who loves words

Some people call this a logophile

Once I had fun counting in how many languages 

I know to say the word beer

just like alcohol would matter for me

I like to write poems late at night

I love in your direction

Muttering words hoping they’ll reach somewhere

close to you

Words like

I miss you

Te extrano

Tu me manques

Sinto a tua falta

Îmi e dor de tine…

saudade/saʊˈdɑːdə/noun= (especially with reference to songs or poetry) a feeling of longing, melancholy, or nostalgia that is supposedly characteristic of the Portuguese or Brazilian temperament.

Meraki

I’m upset, I have complaints and I get sad

It’s not that I feel different

or that I lost connection with what I love

And I don’t mind that I don’t get to show my face to the sun

And that the strangers don’t smile to me no more

That I don’t get to wear my pretty dresses

That I’ve missed the spring that I’ve been dreaming and planning all winter for

But time… 

is something weird

I forget things even if I have a great memory

I recall memories and everything’s there

But I can’t feel your touch on my skin

And it’s really hard to explain what I mean.

I’ve practiced dancing and yoga, 

meditation and french

And I get to write more poetry now

I think I’m even getting better at it

And I love these mountains

even though I never explored them 

never walked barefoot on the grass

Just on the street 

when I was little

And I used to be scolded

like walking barefoot is something wrong

Something that shouldn’t be done

forbidden and

dirty

Not for a child like me

Who has let school and society tell me

Who I should be.

Dear Earth, 

Mother Nature, 

roots

I belong here, 

but at the same time I don’t 

and it’s strange

But I’ve abandoned myself completely

in another place.

86,400 seconds

86, 400 seconds each day,

How many of them would you like to stay?

Kiss me one silent night

And I’ll answer you with my silence

Or I will write

Replying through a poem,

Or a 7 page short thought

You said it’s like a review

And that may be true.

The place where I’ve abandoned myself,

A blue pillowcase and a bookshelf

A street that I thought that I know, 

but I didn’t

A button and number 7,

The elevator and I was close to heaven.

Your arms-strong

and my fingers shaking,

Something inside of me 

both building and breaking

My whispers,

The soundtrack to your dreams

All is well,

Or so it seems.

And you…

Love me…

Once 

Twice

Once again

Love me… 

Calm love

Space

Peace

Yoga mat

And morning coffee.

Cuddle 

Bubble bath love

Purple crystals

Chill music

And you… 

To Me

I live the poetry that I didn’t know to write

Letting it consume me.

My body knows unheard songs 

Just like my heart knows things that I can’t talk about. 

Absolute silence.

I’ll let your hand cover my mouth

Your fingers must have magic in them.

What does magic taste like?

Madness.

15 June.

Temporary madness turned into something more serious.

For sure.

Where your hands belong… 

Temple of love.

I will tremble,

If you come closer, you could feel

The earthquakes of me.

“It’s been a while since you heard from me, I stay alone, protect my energies/Found a little love, lost my sanity/Here’s to good people, good nights/Some tears, some stress/But I count my blessings/Here’s to good music, great sex/Little time to feel alive…”

Introspection

A landscape of curves

Edges and nerves

Sharp and soft

A mind and the ribs

Flat chest and a huge smile

Thousand of verses in one file.

Looking like a painting

Dying to speak, but unable

On every human, a label

She’s no exception

But an unique perception

She’s not just 

what we have been taught 

in anatomy lessons

Though, it’s simpler than that

Or complicated when it comes about emotions

But when she’s loving

She’s insanely intense

And it makes a lot of sense

In the patterns of shadows

And the blissing light

Who show a human who loves to write.
