Soy todo lo que no se dice, lo que se guarda y te sana o te destruye, soy la desdicha y el caos, una serie de catástroficos eventos y sin todo esto ¿que sería de mi? Soy Luna soy viento, me enredo en las noches y de ellas me alimento. La calma del silencio murmura en mis adentros y quiero amor real rodeando mis días, no pido más que toda mi poesía ♡ y si no está bien quiero estar mal llenandome de sabiduría.

Desde el vitalismo, estos poemas deslizan su gran rechazo de los límites, las certezas y las imposiciones del mundo contemporáneo.
I was born in Alabama. Lived the first 9 years of my life in Florida, but then moved back to Alabama after my grandmother passed away to live in her house. I've been here ever since and I absolutely love it. I am married to a wonderful man who is my best friend. I'm surrounded by my family and friends and beautiful nature. I am a follower of Christ. I've always loved to write. When I was little, I would write my parents little notes and slide them underneath the door of whatever room they were in. I just loved to touch people through my words. Verbally and on paper. When I became a teenager, I started to write random poetry for fun, but also for school. I realized that it wasn't homework for me to write, it was a joy. My poetry streak really took off at the age of 15. Now, having recently turned 30, I have been through a lot in the past decade and have not written as much as i used to. Ups and downs, highs and lows, defeats and victories...you name it. I've felt a lot of different emotions and thought many thoughts. And I've composed quite a few poems and written many songs through it all. So, this is my place to share them with the world, to touch others through my words. I hope they mean something to you. Thank you.
There is a great, black, vacuous space. Within this darkened void lies all manner of gaseous forms and material substances endlessly swirling in a constant state of both perfect chaos and immaculate harmony. But even the most vividly descriptive imagery can only at best scratch the surface of such a mysteriously complicated thing. Such is the vain attempt to accurately depict the sheer complexity of a person within a paragraph. I can never fully express all that I am through written word alone, for just as the Universe must be experienced in order to be fully understood, so must I.

I've always been creative since I was a little girl. I would write poems, song lyrics, create things, draw, color and sing. My imagination was always big and vivid. As I got older I started to write short stories and even went to college to get a degree in creative writing. Well I ended up becoming a hairstylist which I love doing so much. I decided that writing was a hobby for me, a way to escape and release and I love it. I'm happy that I can be on here to share my talent with the world.
My name is Adrian. I grew up in the Sierra Nevada's of California. I'm in my early 30s and still living the solo, single life. I'm a creative individual who expresses himself through writing, photography, and making short videos. Most of my writings have a Love or Life touch, but I consider my work to be a variety of different elements. I have been writing poems and short stories since High School and some through my college years. Since I'm one of the single men with no children at his side, My writing centers around what comes in my mind and the many things any single, loving individual would wish to have. Some of my writings can be light or dark, happy or sad, It depends on what my creative mood is. Many people inside my circle know very little of my writing, but know me for my contributions in photography and creative video ambitions. I chose to separate the writer and the creative photographer, because it would draw too much attention. If you have any questions or want to share writings, feel free.

Namaste, Although I am now residing in sunny Florida, I grew up in Queens, New York. I am the eldest daughter of Jamaican, West Indian immigrants. We were a lively family, five siblings altogether with plenty of love and joviality to go around. From early on, I loved creating stories. My brothers and sisters also keenly enjoyed listening to them. But, being the natural artist, I preferred to retreat into the silence of my room surrounded by my dolls, where we would embark on all sorts of imaginative and adventurous tales. My siblings would listen with their ears glued to the bedroom door, occasionally a giggle of delight escaped from the other side of the door. This interest in story telling gradually metamorphosed into the art of penning poetry. Over the years I have written many poems. The fascinating thing about the imaginative process that I've observed, is that there seems to be some sort of bridge that connects us to the creative source. This is similar to what I experienced in my childhood, a quiet space within, beyond me where creative ideas flow endlessly. On another note, I am also an artist. But, LOL, all of my paintings tell a story too. My work is a visual and poetic diary of my spiritual journey. From the highest peaks in the Himalayas to many of the sacred ashrams in holy India I have been blessed with the opportunity to journey through that divine land eleven times. My spiritual quest began on June 6, 1970 with the birth of my daughter. During the birth I had an amazing out-of-body-experience which catapulted me out of ordinary three dimensional awareness into an astounding, metaphysical reality which I know survives and surpasses death, misery, joy, materialism and all that is dualistic and worldly. A space of being in which Pure Love, Life and Light exists Eternally. This event inspired me to explore the intriguing inner realms of Self through Yoga, Meditation, Rosicrucianism and other spiritually laden paths. I have written two books. The first, "Sai Rapture, The Ecstatic Journey of a Modern Day Gopi " portrays my spiritual journey. The second book, "108 Bhakti Kisses, The Ecstatic Poetry of a Modern Day Gopi" is a garland of poems celebrating the divine in everything.

Nací el 30 de noviembre de 1997, actualmente tengo 17 años y vivo en España, en un pueblecito de Extremadura. Conforme fui creciendo me aficioné a la lectura de novelas, relatos, clásicos, poemas... y así hasta hacer de ello una afición que considero indispensable en mi vida ya que muchos entendereis que para los poetas aficionados como nosotros, la poesía siempre ha sido morfina para dormir el dolor y una especie de canalizador para expresar al mundo nuestros sentimientos; por ello, reconozco que casi todas las poesías que he escrito desde que comencé tienen unos tintes muy amargos, dolorosos o melancólicos; ya que puedo correr el riesgo de que me tachen de necrómano ( aquel que disfruta con el tema de la muerte) pero no es así. Si algo ha marcado mi poesía ha sido la muerte de mi abuela primero, y recientemente de su marido, mi otro abuelo, el cual inspiró poesías que me salían de los más profundo del alma dando a entender a todos lo mal que puede llegar a sentirse cualquier ser humano con la pérdida de un ser amado. Como conclusión, finalizo comentando que estoy muy alegre de haber encontrado esta página donde dar constancia de mis poemas en lugar de alguna libreta que acabará desaparecida en cualquier lapso de tiempo; sin más que decir, un placer y espero que os guste todas mis poesías :)
