the secret voice

April 3rd, 2021

Stopped and started this poem
A hundred times
Nothing felt right, not even the rhymes
Is it the perfectionist or the expressionist?

I don’t believe in right or wrong
I just sing my internal song
The tune’s a little off today
And that’s totally ok

Not exactly a twist or a turn
It’s a deep intrinsic churn
A little burn
But this is a journey for you to learn

When I face it
It floats away
And I can return to my rhythmic sway
You’re looking for something, not an escape, but, love’s landscape

The pillows of comfortable clouds
The thoughts that come in enjoyable crowds
That indescribable rush creating this harmonious sound
But yet, why are you stuck on the ground?

The foundation is sturdy and stable
Letting me feel ready and able
Even though it’s all just a label
You know in your bones, it’s time to jump off your foundation’s table

Only when I jump
Can I feel gravity’s thump
Through courage and tenacity
You know you can touch the sky, and feel love’s vivacity

The Shore Series

April 1st, 2021
On my recent stroll on the beach, I captured some awe-inspiring photos and the thought dawned on me to pair some of the pictures with micro-poetry. I knew this would be a challenge for me since condensing my words is not always the easiest 🤪, but, I really love the way these all turned out! Each picture I’ve taken, has its own dance, its own vibration and I like how the words match each vibration. It’s a slightly different post than my usual, but, it still has my same flare! So, without further ado…enjoy!!!

good enough

March 27th, 2021

Living for what other people think
Was something I did, and it made me shrink
The Universe and I were not in sync
I never lived for me; this life was but a blink
There was a day I started to realize
There’s a difference between caring and disguise
Character and care, are not lies
Putting on different shades and filters isn’t wise
Instead, my soul dies
I guess, I also didn’t know me through my eyes
Opinions about me and voices in my head
Shaped the me I’ve now shed
When I started to let go
And give me some attention and care
Life was no longer truth or dare
It became a journey, I was now aware
Judging myself for being the wrong kind of rare
Or basing my personality just to compare
Was more about fear and my little mind’s scare
I no longer regret it
If it wasn’t for that version of the “someone” I fit
That second wouldn’t have split
And I’d still be the fragments coming together
Just to be good enough
Now I’m soft and tough
Alive, free and aware of my magical stuff
I finally chose to be me and broke the handcuff
I became good enough

unspoken words cry

March 24th, 2021

So much can be said by saying nothing at all
So much power in no words
So much can be read when the body talks
So much value in the unheard

Whispers in the dark
Your echoes leave a mark
The power in your tone
Becomes a reality I’ve known

Words act as a distraction
In each interaction
Impact just a fraction,
Action births reaction

Nothing is actually sour
Belief has all the power
Like caged birds, unspoken words cry
The force of choice will let them fly

Thoughts in your head, unsaid
Yet you expect me to know?
When the message is unsent,
Can’t see into your soul

So little can be read by doing nothing at all
So much charge in the still
So little can be said when doing nothing but talk
So much to say, let alone to fulfill

my maze

March 24th, 2021

My mind has many paradoxes
It’s like the maze of my soul
Some days, I think I know each hole
The next day, I’m on a new stroll
There is no magical key
Where I’ll wake up and know every wave in my sea
I guess that’s the thing about this realm
Those at the helm
Don’t have the answers
Those around me
Don’t have the answers
I AM the answer
As my thoughts and dreams are the dancer
My mind is filled with many curves
Each piece has its purpose it serves
Connected to my being and its nerves
I am not what a version of me deserves
I am the me I choose to be through the power of mind
I am one of a kind
I am my soul and head intertwined
I am the Universe aligned
The stars and voices combined
My head can be blurry and odd
Unpredictable but a channel of god
Alive and abroad
Here’s the thing
My mind is always the voice I sing
No matter which way I swing
We’re connected though this magical string
Never lonely, it’s the Universe I bring

The Lullaby Series

March 21st, 2021

love’s lullaby

My voice in your head
Lying you down in this cozy bed
We will always be connected through this endless thread
It’s you through all these lifetimes I’ve led
I’m your day and night lullaby
Hugging you through any aching pain
Celebrating all the joys and highs you maintain
Pushing you to grow and fly like a plane
Rocking you to sleep no matter what clogs your brain
And always loving you no matter what stain
Or turn you take on this journey’s lane
I was with you from the moment you were born
I will be till the second this life ends
And forevermore
You must trust every here and now
It’s not in the how
Or the why or wow
It’s in the eternal vow
To remember everything happens for a reason
And is meant to be in your evolution
There are no problems nor solution
Those are just labels of this world’s institution
You are here for the truth revolution
Never fear being lonely
I am here and I’m not the only
I surround in everything you see
It just takes open eyes and a loving heart to be
I am your forever voice
Always here, it’s not a choice
It’s in our soothing lullaby you can hear peace rejoice

deception’s lullaby

This world is a dimension of its own
Many things are not known
It’s the truth that has not yet flown
Lies sitting on the throne
This deceptive movie being shown
Our reality is not at all what it seems
But it’s through love and light where my soul beams
I often wonder if this life I’m living is just a series of dreams
Because I know anything mainstream is just a bunch of schemes
We’re tricked and they want us divided in a million different teams
Their frequency of fear hums this corrupt lullaby
But I don’t believe in a good or bad guy
I believe in love
And I know fear is the illusion they want me to fall in
I just smile and grin
Because now with my eyes open
And my soul alive and awake
I can hear and watch their lullaby
I’m immune to it, I continue to fly
I have my own bubble
Protected from any 3D trouble
I thrive, fulfill my mission and spread my love double
Ace

I love this poetry series! Lullaby is a topic ripe with inspiration and can be interpreted in many different ways. In this case, the first poem is the Universe speaking to you, promising to be your forever lullaby. The second poem is about the world’s lies and the deceptive lullaby fear creates. But, each poem comes back to love because no matter what lullaby we hear, it’s our choice of how we interpret it. I hope this helps you on your journey!!! Be fearless and free -Ace
learning curves

March 18th, 2021

This has to be a test
They’ve both disappeared
And I’m left with this strange feeling in my chest
Maybe it’s pain or a sliver of heartbreak
The ground beneath me wants to shake
But I stay strong amidst this quake
I hear your voice telling me it’ll all be well
I’m letting this weird emotion dwell
Hoping an answer can come and yell
Or just waiting for my phone’s bell
I’ve let go, I’ve given space,
I’ve jumped in, I’ve done this chase
You’ve made me laugh and gleam
Now we’ve drifted into a different stream
I saw you in a dream
And I don’t know what to think
Was on the brink
But then you showed up and made things blurry
You, however, want me to worry
Out of nowhere, you ran
Leaving me, almost as if it was always your plan
I started to feel it coming, but I stayed
I can’t help but feel a bit betrayed
I still care and send you compassion’s aid
Oh Universe, I know you threw in this grenade
Waiting to see my being’s shade
Will I surrender and fade?
Or soak in the lesson and let love invade?
This day is up and down with emotion
Like the infinite waves of the ocean
I’ll always live for my soul’s devotion

I love

Ace
love’s note

March 16th, 2021

It’s always you
Seeing me for me no matter the view
Guiding the way through and through
Ever since we truly met
I can’t forget
You’re one of a kind
And when the synchronicities align
Your hug gives me the most joy
Today I’m showering you with my love
You’re my magical little dove
Always inside, below and above
When I believe, I turn up the heat on our stove
For a while you drove
But then freedom hit and I took the reigns
You’re always there to tell me when to change lanes

It’s always you
Shining a light on those days I grew
You’re my glue
Even when I was scared
You never flew
You’ve been with me through every lifetime
And will be through every experience that’s new
You know it’s never been easy
“It” being trust
But you illuminated my stardust
Took away the rust
And taught me how to be free
You gave me the vision that doesn’t just allow me to see
But to unlock the truth key

It’s always you
Thank you for being my infinite crew
And for being there no matter what life I debut

Of course, I’ve always been talking to you Universe, me

Be fearless and free – Ace
clue

March 13th, 2021

What if we lived life through the beat of our hearts?
Each beat with its own purpose, its own fire
Then time would be the ultimate liar
The rhythm of our hearts creating life’s magical choir
That’s our missing wire
The illusion of time and this construct of a world
Teaches us to forget
When our soul and heart first met
The day they came together and created YOU
This whole journey began and was put into view
Maybe this is lifetime #122
Or you’re a part of infinite’s crew
No matter what, your soul chose to be here
I can feel your smile as you read this loud and clear
Or maybe it’s a happy tear
You know deep down you’re here for a reason
Not just a lifetime nor a season
Your journey is immortal
This is simply just a test
Rise above the lies, deception and all the rest
Fulfill your mission and do your personal best
You are making yourself proud
Stand a part from the crowd
Do what your soul came here to do
This life is just your journey’s clue

piecing us together

March 11th, 2021

What if I had changed?
What if you waited too long?
And the me you knew had gone?
Would it have hurt or burn?
Or would it have just been a lesson to learn?
I was there waiting at every door
Said the twists and turns in my core
You took me on adventures to soar
Thought you let me fall when I needed you most
I saw you on the coast
And you whispered that you were there
While the wind blew through my hair
I ignored you, because your voice hit me like bricks
I thought you were playing tricks
And then you appeared in that dream
I guess you know me too well
I don’t even know why I was mad
Or maybe it was the distance that made me sad
I wished you could’ve just sped things up a tad
I know everything is meant to be
But why does time have to become a lost key?
I fell into my little mind’s game
But it’s not me I’m going to blame
I’ve done it too much to make that move again
Instead, I let it go and thanked you
Turns out, we’re always learning something new
I remembered my perception can sometimes be askew
My impatience doesn’t need to turn into a mental zoo
Alternatively, I can look through the eyes you view
While I put my trust to the test and collect what’s true
Ace

This poem is an interesting one. I think there are two meanings to it; one that resonates is taking a trip down the lane of my past! This piece starts as my present self asking the Universe what if I had changed and you were too late, and then it goes into my days of doubt in the Universe. Writing on a real past conversation I had in my head, there was a day I was walking on the coastline of a beach and I heard the Universe’s voice, but, I pushed it to the side. That day actually taught me to start listening and facing my feelings more; so, the piece ends with the lessons I learned. The second meaning could be about a relationship in my life; as I was reading this poem, I was flashed some memories about it and came to some new realizations. I really like the way it turned out; the mystery and vulnerability within it lets the words come together a bit more. Normally when I write poems, I finish it and it is complete, but, this one I edited a few times as the double meaning had me running in circles a bit! I hope this helps you on your journey!
