🤗 poetry is an incredible medium of expression. I used to write poems but I've lost touch with that side of myself. I hope I find it again one day.

From my archive:

Sea water and wine flow through my veins,

Yet a pearl is hidden in the depths of my being.

The mollusc which holds it guards it from pollution,

But the pearl is aware, eternally all-seeing,

And the mollusc is hardened, covered in dirt.

Forgive me sweet pearl when I'm too afraid to meet you,

The ocean is so deep and I am so weak.

I wish I was stronger, to drown and to greet you,

To know you,

to see you,

to be you,

Complete.
