We Live

February 26th, 2021

We are all infinite shards of glass reflecting each other and when these shards come together, they create the mirror we call life.

We are all broken branches and fallen leaves, rooted to each other and when put together, they create the tree we call life.

We are all strokes of an eternal paintbrush in many different colors and when brought together, they create the painting we call life.

We are all torn petals and seeds growing in each other and when planted together, they create the flower we call life.

We are all different foods with our own unique flavor and when mixed together, they create the umami dish we call life.

We are all dim lit lightbulbs searching for our sparks and when the “on” button is pressed, they create the ultimate light show we call life.

We are all caterpillars finding our colonies through each other and when brought together, they emerge out of their cocoons and create the flight we call life.

What resonates with you? I’d so love to hear!!!

Little Things

February 25th, 2021

I believe the little things in life let the stars twinkle and the sun shine brighter. The little things come hug you rise and shine, let you daydream in the afternoon and rock you to sleep – the little things make this journey a big, beautiful thing.

When I was a child, we always did poetry night in my family. Each of us would read a poem of choice from one of our many poetry books; my brother often chose Little Things by Christina Rossetti. I don’t know why this popped in my head, but at the same time, I do.

When your friend makes you laugh, or your Mom smiles with an eternal glow, or you find an old journal entry, or your Dad giggles, or your friend really sees you, or your sibling is quietly thoughtful or a comment that makes your soul feel at home – life just seems perfect.

The divine timing in the little things lets you know the Universe is here, kissing your aura and whispering in your ear. This genuine joy brushes over me because I know my past was worth it, my now is perfect and my future is starlit.

One Night

February 22nd, 2021

Ticking clocks, burning lights and the spinning fan all begin to fade. I lay awake, waiting for my eyes to drift and my mind to wander; but something holds me back. Thoughts are rumbling, the power in my vision is still so alive and the beat to my heart echoes in the room. My bed feels comforting but its gentle rock isn’t putting me to asleep, it’s giving me that moment in the movies, when the depth of this journey is all in one’s sight. She comes and he follows, he stays and she wanders; she whispers, he hollers. I hear them both, but I go blank and roll over, now isn’t the time for conversations with myself about you.

Then I realize, society’s time crutch isn’t the reality I’m “supposed” to live in. My reality is shaped by the feelings, intentions and beliefs I carry, not the numbers they construct. So, the spinning fan starts to come back and I get up to collect myself. I say hello to everyone in my head, I say goodbye to silence.

But it’s in that moment, it all fades again – because when you let go, everything becomes clear.

A Thousand Walls

February 21st, 2021

In my little bubble, I know the glass is cracking. Or maybe my stains are becoming more apparent, I’m not really looking for an answer. What I’m looking for isn’t an escape nor a shortcut, it’s a sign that all will be ok.

A thousand walls go up, my scars start to burn again. The walls protect me from fear, but they also close me into my mind. The magic of the Universe outside has disappeared, it’s all within now and I’m actually quite ok with that. The sliver of light coming in from my window does start to pour something into my heart, but, this trap of thinking I’m stuck in still has my feet buried underneath its mud.

A thousand walls close in on me and I’m grateful for the protection, but, I realize now they’re too close. I’m losing my grasp on my heart’s voice but my intuition is yelling at me, I know it’s time to listen. I lean back into the depths of the darkness my room presents, and let the little sliver of light beam into my eyes; the duality of both brings me comfort.

“All is well, the nerves and the thoughts are all in your control. Let go and trust, with growth comes growing pains. Put down your walls and plant your roots, it’s time you decide how to live your journey – in fear’s hands or in your own.”

A little flashback from my past, I intended to write this about where I’m at in my journey now, but, the past came flooding back. Fear was a close companion in my youth, and when I finally broke free, miracles flowed in my life like a dream. I would never trade my past or my thousand walls because they let me grow into the fearless and free soul I am now. Here’s to letting down walls, breaking free and emerging as the truest you!!!

glazing my aura

February 19th, 2021

Your touch makes me gasp
Locked your harmony on me like a clasp
It soothes me in ways I’m just beginning to know
Your effortless glow
Captures my soul in this timeless flow
It’s funny I’m saying you, when I know it’s me
The Universe inside
Is where my love resides
And our magic collides
This world and its divides
Can take us on many rides
But nothing will separate us, we are our own guides
Because we are one
The Universe, my heart, mind, soul, and intuition spun
And turned into this someone
ME
Glazing my aura
Providing me with this eternal plethora
Abundance shall shine
As long as I remember you are always mine
Letting go of you and me, labels get in my way
This authentic sway
Allowed my heart to splay
This glaze on my aura will forever stay

Quest

February 18th, 2021

We’re hurling through time and space even though this reality is a trap. Life has no map, we create our own. My head spins with voices, I think I finally know them all.

Contemplation has become wonder and wonder has become dreaming. Saying I have it all under control would be a lie, the truth is, I know who I am and with that love and power, I can enjoy the rollercoaster.

Rising to the top, my feelings start the ride. When I get to the top, my gut starts pinging me letting me know I’m on the right track. Then I drop, wiping away all the fear. The ride starts to rise again, all these voices coming through words in my mind, beats in my heart and butterflies in my stomach. But this time, I go upside down and hear too much; I’m overwhelmed.

Now I’m just speeding down the runway, a million miles an hour, “Trust me, this is life’s quest,” says the voice in my head. The voice, being my higher self; I can tell because the ride comes to a halt and I feel at peace.

See, without the quest, would the answer be as rewarding?

Voicing My Soul’s Language

February 16th, 2021

She was speaking, but, I couldn’t understand. He was saying something, but, nothing translated. It wasn’t just the words I couldn’t understand, it was the energy behind those words. Vibrations, energies and frequencies are languages, and I speak the vibration of my soul.

They can try to get to me, they can force themselves upon me, but, the voice of my soul is strong and knowing; if you’re a match then I’ll hear you. Words are magical, vibration is eternal and effortless. Like waves they come and go; their tide can turn at any moment.

You could be a language I speak right now, or you could be a distant holler. You could be a faint whisper, or you could be a voice I understand like the breath of my being. You could be a chorus I’ll forever understand for you are my destiny. You can be whatever, I will always be authentically me, a language that deepens over time.

We are all our own language. I don’t speak your language, I speak mine. But, if you know me and are meant to be, I’ll definitely hear you. Your voice doesn’t have to be words, it can be a vibration, an aura, an intuition, a heart, a mind, a soul or anything electric and truly alive.

My voice is always hungry for those who speak it too, however, my internal compass is always honest. I know if you see me, or if you just act. I know if you are meant on my journey, or if you’re just blurry. This is just my soul’s expression, your opinion is yours, my belief is mine.

My tone is dependent on my heartbeat. What makes me truly alive, lets my soul speak with joy. What I know is a lesson I am meant to learn, lets my soul speak with power. My tone isn’t dependent on your reaction, it’s dependent on my action.

This is a bit different from my usual writing and ironically, I love the voice behind it. I hope this helps you on your journey!! Always remember to listen to your voice because you are the Universe! Other people’s languages will match or detach if they’re meant to, you must trust!!! Be fearless and free -Ace
where am i?

February 14th, 2021

Stars so bright, feel their light pour into my veins
Electricity in the air, the energy is more than alive
Deeply in love with the sun, rock and nature
Overflowed with the charges of this vortex
Never alone here, this is home
A feeling I’ll never forget, reality is my dream

Galaxy

February 13th, 2021

Galaxy’s hold on my breath, soul and spirit is everlasting and effortless. When I say galaxy, I know it’s more than the illusion of the solar system; it’s the infinite Universe.

When I feel galaxy’s touch, the twinkle in my heart lights up and its sparkles illuminate the rest of my being. My soul knows the galaxy like its mother, born from the starlit branches that connect us all together.

The formations of the Universe make up my inside. I’m starting to get to know all the lights, funny enough, each one shines brighter when I tap into it.

Galaxy – I know you stretch far and wide and I think you have many more stories to tell. I thank you for creating a little home inside me. I promise to see you in each being I meet. -Ace
flavor

February 11th, 2021

I could be bitter

I could be sweet

I could be salty

I could be your treat

I could be whatever you want me to be

It’s all perception

I know who I am

And that’s no misconception

I hope you’ll see me for me, the light

But even if you don’t, won’t be crying at night

I’m so proud of me for knowing my flavor

Each piece of me I savor

And if you don’t appreciate my taste

My time I won’t waste

No hard feelings

We’re not supposed to be on this path

It’s simple math

1+1 isn’t 0, it’s 2

The Universe is right on que

I see me through and through

Someone will too

And they’ll become my crew

I really love this piece, it’s been in my head for a few days and I finally decided to jot it down! I formatted it differently too, I don’t know, this felt a little different than most of my poems. Inspired by lyrics in a song, this one is simple but deep and I love the way self love comes through so powerfully. I hope this helps you on your journey, be fearless and free!
