My beauty is fading

My beauty isn’t what it appears to be.  
Look into my eyes and see—  
There’s love, mystery, and more.  
“What’s mine” and “what’s ours” are different.  

I prefer coffee; you prefer tea.  
The heart knows what it wants,  
It seeks connection, not heart surgery.  

Love, trust, surrender, and

Lost in thoughts

Assume, for a moment,  
That yesterday wasn’t quite as it seemed.  
You found yourself in a state of reflection, where you glimpsed the light,  
Only to awaken from what felt like a troubling dream.  
The sky appeared less vibrant, taking on a gray hue.  
  
The individual in the

Marina

Marina likes to play
She holds the universe as her toy
Her fingers radiate
On the frenzy of the vibes.

My heart locked into the past

I'm tired

The past locked into my future
Locked into my now

I am so mad

Feeling the grief

How many years to go
Blindly 
Tightly to what should have been 

Now im old with no where to go

The past stole my future or did I give it all a way
To a past that never was

Remnants of the past
In my face
Hating

The lady who was in the white house

Culture and Taste**  
Her walk, her smile, and the way she carries herself embody something far greater than mere Black pride; they reflect the essence of a future First Lady. She knows the reality of being down on her luck and understands the struggle of facing financial hardships. Michelle Obama, a woman of substance,

Heart of an Angel

Something so pure that it felt scars of the past!
Betrayal from others is what they felt!
As it looks at it gift they pontificate whether they can give the gift its needs.
The gift is happy and does not know the sadness from the angel who gave him life!

Taking a leap of faith, they found themselves trusting

Smile from a Kiss

To hearts united through the social media circus
It has brought me into trusting of others
Your smile was a kiss to my soul and heart!

A House divided will never stand fully without the support of the other side; so, the east and west must unite for a centered family life!
Diamante! Domenica! (Diamond! Sunday!)
Your words of care

Kiss from a Smile

When we first met it was in a room of the unknown.
Your background was of a woman’s silhouette.
A mysterious picture of a person that was questioning everything
I did not know who you were!
All I saw was your words of a beautiful question
Those words in the beginning I do not remember as I only remember speaking

Pure Intentions

Speaking for a while to a person is a quest that becomes more than a completion.
It becomes the words between friends and then the quest is updated.
At this point the words become the words of relatives and then possibly more than just that!
Well, in the beginning my intention was to garner a friendship and then

To Fly

To fly,
First one must jump,
To jump,
One must risk falling back to the ground.

Things

Things, I want things,
Give me things,
Here is a ring,
Let us accumulate things,
And compare are things to their things,
They are evil,
Their things do not compare to our things,
There was a man who taught us love,
But we killed him with a thing,
And when he rose,
Instead of rising like him?
We built things, to fly through the sky,
Things, I

What is the truth in your name

I am called Annie A Lander.  
Perhaps my mother believed  
This name would be fitting for me,  
But my father disagreed; he felt  
I should bear the name of a goddess,  
Such as Sarasvati, who embodies many souls.  

I share my thoughts and ideas like wildflowers,  
Dispersing my

Love cannot be controlled or confined

Love is thinner than a piece of cheesecloth,
transparent yet confusing to navigate.
More conservative than a political debate
More hearts are broken than mended
.
I am determined to search globally for an end to this love.
We desire it fiercely and embrace our fate to heal humanity.
Love may be a fleeting remedy,  
Yet we pursue it with fervent

flying lesson

The flying lesson

White as a shroud, the virtual paper in front of me
I wanted to record my first flight in a Dakota plane 
Inside, the aircraft looked like a bus, reaching under
my seat for the parachute, the steward said
there wasn't, but he handed me boiled sweets which
I didn't eat in case it was a drug keeping
