~ And Still

 

 

 

And still, I had so much to ask,

But I was not and am never allowed,

There are flying a thousand questions

Above the temple of my head,

 

They mostly fly around midnight

And often they land on mornings,

With the pleasure of the transparent

Wind that does turn the

Compass of my heart ~

 

Let me forget them for a while;

For they bring me headaches;

Like the hot sun can give you too ~

 

But always they return,

Like little teasing feathers;

When I do not expect them.

 

For there are so many questions I didn’t ask,

For there are too many; I must bury still,

In full acceptance, of this life ~

 

Is it right, that we still are wondering why?

And probably forever will?

For there is a way to pain and suffering

 

Is it fair? I never got the chance?

Or maybe: “I didn't take it”?

It will remain a big question mark

Even I don’t have an answer to.

 

For now, I think, my lips are sealed

Poisoned with black ink through my mouth;

 

Silver needles, crossed them,

And did let love bleed silently forever

For it never dies

So fertile it is…

 

On this moment;

I fly above the dark caves,

Wishing to land,

 

But I’m learning to enjoy, how hurt can be

A pleasure, for I’m not flying alone.

 

I'm not flying alone.

You are not alone. Your writing is such a gift. I have missed it so, and like the "Dia de Muerta" we celebrate the past forever with gratitude. I have been trying to settle. Things are well. This is so ingenious. The words are spoken carefully upon the paper, and even with ambiguity, it is still inherited with great intent by the reader. This place is a master of verbal music, much like the video you posted. Amazing work. You are so not in the dark. I have been thinking of you and this much lately. I had a single review after four months of not being active here and could not resist to read you. As I always will. Great work my dear! X

You're not alone either, you know we are always together alone... :) Your review bring tears to my eyes, love. It's good to read your reviews again, and even better to speak with you. I'm so happy things are fine, and well. I wish nothing more. I'm happy too when you are. I did something I told you hehe... much love! :) you inspire me always... thank you very much for your time, review, and the friendship, my hero. X

This piece let me to remember my flying dream! I had one of these great dreams, I didnt fly since looong time and it was important to fly! Your poem is like canvas of feelings and labyrinth of thoughts about love - still you don`t want to ask, as you "buried" the silent questions inside yourself, and most important- you are not alone! Many question remain so "sealed", silent, unsaid. But we souldn`t forget that all what is hidden will be revealed, when the time comes..all in darkness will go to the light. I loved these verses:
Silver needles, crossed them,
And did let love bleed silently forever
For it never dies
So fertile it is…

Is it right, that we still are wondering why?
And probably forever will?

there are many questions that needs answers in my brian... though i kept them in minimun and in silence - they say silence is golden... for every wondering there must be compassion to balance what's right to what's wrong... we may have an ocean of thoughts but we always calm the waves or it will distroy us and everyone around us...

a great piece big sis!

Paxie, thank you so much for this refreshing review.... ofcourse you would think like this, and I did lose it for a while... thanks for bringing the balance back my dear brother love.

[Pax]

a pleasure always... remember the last line in your piece... your not flying alone... remember we fly high... :) and up we go...

That makes me smile, deep within my heart.... it comforts me to think you're there.

[Pax]

tight hugs.... one smile a day lifts up the worries... sending you smiles and hugs...

You're right, one smile a day is sometimes enough :) and you gave me back a smile... :) I reflect it back to you, like a powerful mirror from Holland to Saudi :) as if the sun shines on it.....

[Pax]

Sometimes it's best not to know or understand certain answers; there agaim, sometimes even though knowledge can hurt, tis better to have it, than drift endlessly on, feeling alone at times. But, once time's past, tis no point of going back, can only write and think of the now, and make drafts for the future.

'i didn't took it' .. maybe you meant 'take' it? Otherwise a beautiful poem tho sad. ' And often they land on mornings, ~ With the pleasure of the transparent ~ Wind .. .. '

Thank you Emster, will change it when I am home, thanks for your time and review :) great words...

[emmajoy]

I've always tried to write/review sincerely and honestly, dear friend.

And that's what I love, about you. :) x
