l'Italia piange oggi

dalle Rimini alle Cosenza

piove a grosse grocce

e il cielo è griego,

cadente

vedo fuori dalla finestra

e sentirlo in casa

in cucina

dove il bollitore è la

mia comapngia

piange

italia

piange

e domani

sorridi por noi

(my first poem in italian :)

having a heart is the worst

it hurts when you use it 

and aches for love 

when you don’t 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

take me 

to the mountains

and let me be

they will breathe

new life into me 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

maybe

moving on

hurts a little more

when you know

it’s the right choice

the hard choice, but 

the right choice

- musings on life

[sarahlouisepoetry]

in time

everything fades

when you want it to 

and sometimes

when you don’t

that’s the beauty

and the pain of it

           on feelings 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

She dreamt of 

meeting a 

handsome stranger

at the bookstore, 

in the airport, 

on the train, 

on a cobblestone street, 

taking a coffee at a cafe in the sun. 

Instead, alone, 

these were the places

she found 

herself. 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

Moonlight walks 

the way he talks

I think I’m falling in

to something new. 

Holding my breath

wait and see

maybe he thinks 

the same of me. 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

I want to drink wine 

on summer nights 

mesmerized by your 

glowing eyes 

in the candle light. 

I want to dance

until we fall down 

exhausted 

onto a bed of grass. 

I want to gaze up into

the galaxy 

reflected back to us

as stars

talking about everything 

and nothing at all. 

I want this moment 

to last a lifetime 

and if it can’t we’ll do this 

a thousand times over

string them all together 

and call it life. 

[sarahlouisepoetry]

timing is everything

[sarahlouisepoetry]

[sarahlouisepoetry]

strangely, 

I think, 

if I knew 

what I wanted

my life

would be a whole lot

emptier

.

because I

wouldn’t be out here

struggling

to fill in the gaps

with meaning

not just

convenient answers

.

but that doesn't

make the hard days

any easier.

[sarahlouisepoetry]

I have to be

strong enough

to build my own life

over and over

and over

again

as many times

as it

takes

[sarahlouisepoetry]

how lost

am I willing to be

before I can be

found?

[sarahlouisepoetry]

If I don’t choose anyone

To love

then no one can

not choose

me

 ...

(my goodness

I don't know

what is more sad

the fact that I’ve finally

realized this about

myself,

or that it’s how

I’ve been thinking

all

along)

[sarahlouisepoetry]

.perspective.

running away

and

running towards

look similar

from a distance
