I am an Idealist
Choice and the right book have made me a better woman
I used to be a pouter, enraged about everything
Focusing on the slightest slight
I used to be negative
Have you ever read “You cannot afford the luxury of a Negative thought?”
I have
More than once
I read it once a year
Now I am an idealist, an optimist, a creator,

Confession of the day
perhaps it's true
i admit it
i confess it
i'm an idealist
i want it all
i want the best
i don't want seconds
i'm not talking
about what's material
i want attention
i want affection
i want what's true
and from the heart
i'm an idealist
and don't expect
or want to
ever change

Nonconformist Idealist
A catholic priest from the Scottish highlands,
Scotus treaded a nonconformist philosophic path,
deviating from the high middle age mainstream,
for his doctrines of realistic beliefs he was maligned.
Digressing from the prevalent dualist tenet of his times,
he denied the distinction between essence and existence,
the abstract concept of living in monism perception
led him to propose the notion of univocity

The Idealist
The Sun has moved into Aries,
giving the spirit rise to new stories.
Exalted speculation in ethical sense,
planets facilitation and its reference.
Shadows after shadows as chain,
the dooming reality and its claim.
The tormented shore of growing race,
and its consequences that we face.
From every depth of good and ill,
lockdown therapy for natures fill.
Spirits of dead properties near to prey,
pulling

Yesterday's Dreamers
from the cauldron of universities
budding philosophers
burgeoning idealists
determined to fix the world
of all its malice and corruption

The Idealist
He walks right through the wall and bounces of the air,
the ideal is the greatest reality as compulsive fair.
Some minds nail the ideal to the cross for depart,
as the ideal once is dissolved from a love drunken heart.
Then those ideals will have wrinkle and aching pain,
when those star fetched orientations shine in vain.
The danger of

A Dreaming Idealist
she dreams under crystal raindrops from lightning drenched clouds
slivers and shivers from a magical place unknown to most
diamond sparkles sprinkled on the grass show her feet the way
prancing in delight, she visited the otherworld in its entirety
Enjoying tulips, lilacs, lilies, gardenias, and succulent smells of orange
A perpetual dream that keeps her safe and unaware of

The Idealist and the Realist
The idealist sees the world as moments away
From bounding into a Utopian day
And the people that steal-
Can’t truly be real-?
For what helps another- is theirs they say
And the idealists see the moon with delight,
A gem upon the goddess of night
The idealist is a happy old soul.
The realist sees the world as moments away
From reaching the
