Insomnia

Insomnia hits again.
I’m sick of the bad dreams hunting my distorted brain.
My eyes want to sleep so bad.
But my heart feels deeply sad.
Because sleep for me is like a trip to hell.
Because sleep only has horror stories to tell.

Good days

The good days have come.
Sunrise in my eyes.
Love light beams reflect on my skin.
Voices from around the world entering my mind.
Laughter loud together.
For more good days will come.

No.7 II

Written and read, so you will not forget.
That I would live on rhythmic sounds.
Touching, tragic, jovial and timeless.
Play this musical movement.
When death has collected my debt.

Stockholm

I knew this girl.
I knew her well.
I lived with her broken spirit for quite some time.
And with her judgement many more years.
Sadly she never got the chance to meet me.
Only the version of me she was told I would be.
Now she lives in Stockholm.
Once in a while I feel the urge to bring her home.
But then I think clearly again,
With the authenticity of my blooming soul,
That she will never be able to see.
Without knowing the real me.
Without my judgement.
For her Stockholm is the place to be.

Greed

Greed is a heart issue.
And mostly speaking from the face.

M.P.Yasmine

Tears

The pain of the world I will and can not carry.
I do not watch nor read the latest news.
My tears are already that heavy.
They clatter with such gravity.
In a river of old misery.
Crying daily for others pain.
Would make me drown.
In an everlasting rain.

Debt of time

I can’t imagine living without the debt of time.
Not caring or daring to waste it all and let go by.
But the fear of dropping dead.
Makes living with time a nightmare.
And brings shivers down my spine when planning my life ahead.

Stilte

Het loslaten van de stilte duurt jaren.
Stil zijn.
De identiteit die ik wil bedaren.
Door te durven spreken.
Stil zijn.
Uiteindelijk te doorbreken.

De zon in huis

De dag breekt later aan.
Dan dat ik deed verlangen.
De koffie staat koud te worden.
Net zoals de stenen in mijn tuin.
Grillig in alle staten.
Ik mis de zon in mijn huis.
De zomer van al mijn dagen.
Ik zal eens roepen.
Misschien dat hij op wilt staan.

Blossom tree park

Pink blossom catching my eye.
Flourishing in small beams of sunlight.
The trees wake up underneath the cold sky.
Girls with horses, photographers and couples early in love.
In spring I see them all come by.

Never marry a Poetess

Hopeless as he can be.
This crying creature.
Wishful thinking and reverse psychology.
This man is writing Poetry.
His words she turns into books.
What a beautiful tragic irony.

Doors

“Growth is closing doors and open new ones by yourself.”

Morning

Icy flakes dropping down.
Neighbors houses locked up heavily.
Window blinds all the way down.
I’m looking outside 6 am.
Drinking my coffee, searching something.
Maybe tomorrow 5 am.

Snakepit

“You can not see in a snakepit. But if you do, get out!”

M.P.Yasmine

Noise

Earth’s noises haunt me in the early morning darkness from night.
People a few, driving their vehicle to nowhere.
At least in misery of the starting day.
The trees can’t even sing.
They cry in agony for a long time now.
It’s hurting listening,
but I can’t cut off my ears.

In Peace

Drops from heaven reflect in orange.
They seep in man-made streams.
The scenery is equally beautiful as disturbing.
Kinda like the Renaissance.
And the Rebirth we all have been waiting for.

M.P.Yasmine

Emotional abuse

“It doesn’t matter if I’m skinny or fat. My body always feels like a vessel of short term happiness. I’m sick of it.”

M.P.Yasmine

Path

Suddenly it hits me.
In the middle of the crowd.
Going beneath the surface.
Digging deeper for understanding.
That consoling my wounded inner-child will give me all the answers.

M.P.Yasmine

Silence

In the silence I would like to gaze.
The world asleep in a thick eerie haze.
No one to see.
Street lights shining only for me.
Leading me to an empty space of mind.
To discover there it is what I want to find.

M.P.Yasmine

Death Letter

With each decision I make for the better.
I’m rewriting my existence.
Reprogramming my being.
All that was fades away.
Saying goodbye to you and me.
All written down on this dead letter.

M.P.Yasmine

The Opportunity

”I’m selling each cell of my old body.
The old me.
And not even to the highest bidder.”

M.P.Yasmine

My love

The love I’m able to share.
Buried in world’s deepest grave.
It does not take a single man or all.
To dig up my purest.
For it fits well in the darkest of Earth.
In the core of existence.
My existence.

Eyes

“I have a new pair of eyes. They love to weep a little more lately of all the beauty they’re able to see.”

M.P.Yasmine

Books

”I’m constantly buying books for the wrong time.
And the one I truly need to discover the why and the when,
I’m not buying.
All undiscovered.”
