strength

being responsible

is such a delicate matter

which should always be treated

with utmost care

praise is a way

to carry it

weakness

dignity being

such a delicate matter

should always be treated

with utmost care

praise is a way

to reveal it

timeline

respecting the invisible timeline

takes courage to

a very different kind of courage indeed

but courage just the same

refreshing

refreshing summer rain

washing away the dust

cleaning the air

nourishing the earth

maintaining the subtle balance

of nature

allowing peace

to unfold

restorative

an undeniable longing to sleep

no longer

as a way to escape

an overwhelming situation

but purely to restore the body

rest the mind

and let the soul

breath

criticism

the heat is changing the ambience

reducing patience

while old sadness surface

like bobbles in a glass of champagne

no one invited them

no one asked them their opinion

and yet

they silently explode

into tears

years and years of criticism

is corroding

even the most loving heart

unsettled

feeling insecure

for no apparent reason

can be triggering for the mind

feeling insecure

for no apparent reason

and welcoming the feeling

without trying to trace it

can be liberating for the mind

feeling insecure

for no apparent reason

can be a passage

and chasing the feeling away

only acquire

the lack of a bright opportunity

adieu

how many promises

can be enclosed

in one tender word

certainly closing one door

but opening multitudes of others

letting in light

in all its aspects

when only we do not focus

on the loss

for loss there is

never to be underestimated

but not to be magnified

either

groundbreaking

reaching beyond

our emotional background

can be a groundbreaking breakthrough

yet reaching beyond is happening

through the acceptance

of every single part of

our emotional background

not as a burden

nor as a punishment

even less an injustice

but as an invitation

to reach beyond

arts

finding the right words

is an art

words which are opening

instead of closing

words which are healing

instead of hurting

words which are reaching beyond

instead of dragging below

words of love

instead of words of judgement

finding the right words

is an art
