Note To Self

Note to Self

Pour energy

into your

words

Write with intensity

so great

that if you held the page

from a mountain's peak

your words

would be mistaken

for

stars

Not About You

Not About You

This poem

is not about you

even though

your spirit is in every word

your voice sound strong

in the halls of my mind

telling me things

I am not sure

I want to know

This poem is 

about me

trying to understand 

you

Every Song

Every Song

by

Federico Garcia Lorca

Every song

is the 

remains

of love.

Every light 

the remains 

of time.

A knot of time.

And every sign 

that remains 

a cry.

I was already like that.😞

If I were a poem 

If I were a poem 

I'd ask you to fold me up

and put me in your pocket,

then at the end of the week,

toss me in the wash 

with the rest of the clothes

And when you find me there 

smudged and smeared,

ripped and tattered into

little unrecognizable pieces 

don't worry about it,

I was already like that.

   -stephan

Lend me your ears.👂💥💢

Be open.

So You Want To Be Poet? 😩😏😏

So You Want To Be A Poet?

This poem really knocks my heart out to love #poetry.❤😡

 So You Want To Be A Poet?

You want to make beauty out of ugly words

Want to make people feel something,

You want the grandeur and the glamour,

The clapping audience after your appearance on stage?

II.

Well, kid, here's the thing.

A poet is not something you can just "be."

It is an illness passed down at birth 

It is the doctor handing you to your mother and saying 

"I'm so sorry, she was born with poetry in her veins."

III.

It is your father begging for forgiveness

The first time he finds you

Scribbling metaphors on your bedroom wall just like him

It is your first bicycle accident,

and the apologetic look

On your neighbors face when she 

sees the ink pouring out of your wounds.

IV.

It is drinking too much,

not sleeping enough,

loving too deeply,

yet never loving at all.

It is walking up to every stranger you meet and saying

"Here is my heart, would you like the break it?"

So you want to be a poet?

GOOD LUCK.

Child, Child

(Sara Teasdale)

1884-1933

Child, child love, while you can

The voice and the eyes and the soul of the man;

Never fear though it break your heart —

Out of the wound new joy will start;

Only love proudly and gladly as well,

Though love be heaven or love be hell.

II.

Child, child, love while you may 

For life is short as a happy day;

Never fear the thing you feel —

Only by love is life made real 

Love, for the deadly sins are seven,

Only through love will you enter heaven.

If love....❤

❤Love Song🎤

(William Carlos Williams)

Sweep the house clean,

hang fresh curtains 

in the windows 

put on a new dress

and come with me!

The elm is scattering 

its little loaves 

of sweet smells

from a white sky!

Who shall hear of us 

in the time to come?

Let him say there was

a burst of fragnance 

from black branches.

My desires were all completely different.🌌

💫💁💫

       -theintrovertoptimist

If only most of us dreamed about like this.🌌

There are dreams which are different from what we dreamed of.🌠

-theintrovertoptimist

That's why you should always smile.😄

    

Agree with me?😉

Another poem for ❤

It was just time. ⌚🌌

To anyone.

Dear Somebody,

Dedicated to everyone who are having a feeling of  this right now. You. can be anyone. Even me.

-theintrovertoptimist 

improving myself with this quote.👊

I'm feeling good at this.

This is my first time to create my first quote in this blog. The last photos were not mine and I just borrowed it (so I used a credit symbol just to know that it isn't mine) I respect other people's quotes you know so well, yeah.

So I think, I should create quotes yeah? I'll just have to concentrate and feel what I want to say so I can create 

memorable and deep-hearted quotes. (That's the trick!) Hope I gonna. But I'll do my best. I will. Don't worry I'll also borrow other quotes if I find it interesting. 

But know, today, I think I'm going to be great at this.
