For You Are Married to the Earth and Stars

May 28, 2014 thedivinebandit

When across seas, another whispers. The same thoughts and fears. The same plots and cheers.

For whom it may concern,

Forge ahead until you can no longer bleed.

Fall in love until you can no longer dream.

Feed your eyes and ears with all the knowledge your fertile mind will allow in this lifetime.

For you are married to the earth and stars my friend, and they in turn are providing the festivities which embrace your wanting person every feverish moment and haunted hour.

Fill your tummy with sugars and sweets and swallow fine wines imported from other countries without forgetting to maintain your good health for as long as

Forever will last.

( This week I was unable to write my Wednesday post for many personal reasons. This poem is my personal mantra. I read it when I was an emotional angry teenager and it has changed my life)

I am who I am because of what I say with the words that I have, the time I’ve got and the talent I possess. I will myself to do this daily because not everyone can do it. I am blessed to have this ability. I make the shallow look, and sound deep and the deep sound deeper yet with a simple meaning. I want every poem I ever write to be my epitaph. Sometimes I am in my element, sometimes I'm not. There are pieces I don’t believe I wrote because I am not that person anymore. But the truth is; this is a reflection of who I am, who I’ve been and who I will be. I started doing this at age 14 so I guess my works will best be described as “14 going on to immortality”.
