STILL I RISE
I use my creativity to rise above all negativity
I'm only interested in upliftment and positivity
I'm trying to keep all negative energy far far away
Worldly forces attempt to steal my peace everyday
As I lay down crosses that I use to bear on my back
Luciferian agents keep trying to put them all back
I've racked up mileage on a body that's now weary
But my protective deflector goes by the name of poetry
Vigilantly she stays on guard protecting me from harm
Giving me the strength to maintain some semblance of charm
Shadow boxing with GOD to train for future wars
Building an arsenal of words to minimize my scars
Looking to the stars at night as they shine bright
Observing the moon too & absorbing lunar light
Gaining some foresight of fights that may arise
As I recite Maya Angelou's poem of "Still I Rise"
I'm only interested in upliftment and positivity
I'm trying to keep all negative energy far far away
Worldly forces attempt to steal my peace everyday
As I lay down crosses that I use to bear on my back
Luciferian agents keep trying to put them all back

But my protective deflector goes by the name of poetry
Vigilantly she stays on guard protecting me from harm
Giving me the strength to maintain some semblance of charm

Moonriser
As ancient as the stars there are no others
Yet I’m in tune with another celestial being
My precious Luna shines brightest in the sky
Being bathed in her soft life is a sensation worth experiencing.
I rise with the moon to seek the light
Even though the night is dark, I’m none the wiser
I’m never more at peace than dancing under the midnight sun
For I’m an ever faithful moonriser.
As Earth’s loyal companion, my sweet Luna fills our lives with joy
Whenever danger approached, she’d always put herself in the line of danger
I sleep better at night knowing that she rests in the night sky
Despite the immense distance between us, I don’t see her as a stranger.
I rise with the moon to seek the light
Even though the night is dark, I’m none the wiser
I’m never more at peace than dancing under the midnight sun
For I’m an ever faithful moonriser.
“Goodnight” is my new favorite phrase
As long as Luna shines, my soul will always be at peace
This ancient celestial being is our sole protector
From the dark space that poses a threat to you and me.

luna(r)iver
amicable stars, they
sneak from under the
belligerent clouds
growling at the silence
spitting silver bolts at
the mischievous wind
nocturnals rule over
the heliocentric lives
painting rainbows
in black, grey and white
and she brought
milk and honey
revealing her face
calming the wind
silencing the clouds
ample light for the
flourishing passion
hold my neck
swirl on my back
I will bring you home
before the siren song
let us sweat out
this cold night
before the dawn
pull up the bright
let us ride through
hills and meadows
falling on rocks and
under the shadows
I rode these streams
thinking of you
riding with me
to carry your reflection
and bring you ashore
I release you
to sleep and dive
into the depths of
the deep blues
until the next
lunar day
for this
sensation

Moon & Me [ haiku ]
a haiku about
the full moon and the stoned me
and it goes like this
I still remember
how I used to watch the stars
at night from roof top
staring at the moon
and speak to myself inside
she is beautiful
I'll lose count of time
wonder whether am looking
at the moon or earth
one day moon asked me
"why the fuck don't you visit
me here anymore?"
then I said to her
those days have passed and long gone
I've fallen in LOVE
note |
where I grew up we used to say "going to moon" when we smoke weed, I don't know if anybody is familiar with
that phrase because it sounds very unfamiliar when I translate it to english, and it was well fitting in my language
.

Moonlight
I find myself wanting to touch you when your
Face is hidden within the shadows of the moon.
I keep wanting to see you when the front door
Is wide open and when there is a light strewn
All across the windowpanes. The light gleams
All over my soul. I know it is never too soon
To know mystery. I have wishes and dreams
That are always held in your soft embrace like
A new mother holds her newborn child. Streams
Of tears as your graceful beauty brings a strike
Of lightning. It finds and takes me down to my
Knees. The moonlight puts me in a dreamlike
State of mind. There is no amount of tears I cry
That can ever replace the way you have been
There on sleepless nights when I ask you why?
In every prayer you have guided me and seen
Me at my worst. You make me feel clean.

By The Light of the Moon
She bathes in the soft light,
In the cool and quiet night,
As the moon watches her closely from afar,
Like wishes in a fleeting dream,
The aura biers in a desired mien,
With a swoon when it’s adored by other stars.
He stares at the pale glow,
Gazing from his bedroom window,
Wondering if she’s looking up at the same time,
So he wishes with all his being,
When his self-control is all but fleeing,
That the emotion travel and reach her with a sign.
And the moon gazes back quietly,
Tenderly,
Inspiring their imaginations for each night they are apart,
Fueling their burning and yearning,
Splendidly,
Heightening their expectations deeper into the heart.
I swear by the light of the moon,
This feeling ties me to you,
I pray
Think of me and feel me somewhere inside,
I bare my plight hoping that soon,
This reeling binds me to you,
I say
Sigh my name and I’ll come to you like the tide.

Just Believe
Been dancing among the trees
With the grass beneath my feet
Winds breeze in my hair
The fires flame
Flickering on my skin
Feeling free
Under the full moons light
She kissed my cheek tonight
Saying be true to yourself
and all will be fine
Don't run and hide
For I am within you
You will make it through
Just believe
With the grass beneath my feet
Winds breeze in my hair
The fires flame
Flickering on my skin
Feeling free
Under the full moons light
She kissed my cheek tonight
Saying be true to yourself
and all will be fine
Don't run and hide
For I am within you
You will make it through
Just believe

Whispers to the Moon
Laying in the grass
Whispering to the moon
About how much I want to be with you
In hopes she is listening
To every word I'm speaking
Expressing my every desire
She see my fire
For it burns so bright
In this midnight summers night
Hoping she will bring my wishes soon
Because I don't want to live without you
So goddess of the moon
Grant us a way soon
I think I maybe in love you see
So mote it be
Whispering to the moon
About how much I want to be with you
In hopes she is listening
To every word I'm speaking
Expressing my every desire
She see my fire
For it burns so bright
In this midnight summers night
Hoping she will bring my wishes soon
Because I don't want to live without you
So goddess of the moon
Grant us a way soon
I think I maybe in love you see
So mote it be
