Poetry, Language Of the Soul

*Kintsukuroi

The journey of this life has left scars,

embedded deeply within my being.

 

Experienced moments,

become the spider-like web of construction.

 

Mirrored cracks & creases,

are the consistent reminders that I lived.

 

I wear my battle-wounds PROUDLY,

for they’re the trophies of life continuing &

lessons learned.

 

As I Am,

exhibiting the freckles of time,

 

Honored preservation,

a reminder of the existence I bare.

 

“KINTSUKUROI!!!”

I breathe & live again.

✨✍🏾I Had Forgotten – By, Maxwanette A Poetess✍🏾✨

Poetry, Language Of the Soul

I Had Forgotten

Within the pain,

trying one’s best to live again.

The wanting, needing,

the constant feelings.

The past fears of rejection,

blinded loves interception.

As the cold harshness,

left a bitter taste on life’s palette.

Beautiful in one’s existence,

a reminder of the Universal Purpose.

Saturated with the essence of life’s joy.

Glowing with the magnificence of Self.

(Deeply Smiles)…Oh yes, I had forgotten.
