Love thy self ....

I am beautiful as me .

Not for my colleagues

Or my long lost lovers

For my friends mostly

For my family muchly

And surely in my fantasies ! 

I am beautiful as me.

Else why do they keep telling me?

In laughs and chit chats

In long winded yarns 

Tales today 

Recaps tomorrow 

I am beautiful as me .

For the strangers I've passed 

And those I will meet.

In my forgotten dreams of yesterday

And my exhausted today 

Maybe in the to be tomorrow ...

I am beautiful as me.

For the scars I carry.

I'm too much ..said he,

I laughed later.... Really ? 

I live , laugh , love. 

I cry , scowl , growl. 

I am beautiful as me.

Some hurts don’t heal.

Some tears don’t dry.

Some memories don’t fade.

Smiling forgotten.

Laughter squashed.

Lost in translation.......

The passage of Time.

Everything is all Right - inspired by "The Fountain"

Death is inevitable.

Each day that passes is one day less in my life.

And yet I will leave a legacy.

A fine web of memories.

The body will be forgotten.

First the feel of my touch.

Then my voice.

Then my smile.

Yet you will remember me.

You will tell my story.

You will follow my rules.

You will be my soul.

You will be my voice.

For I have seeped into your being.

I ask for no grave, for I want to be free to live on in the universe.

I ask for no flowers, for I want no life to be killed to remember me.

I ask for nothing.

For your love I already have.

As you have mine.

The body will be forgotten.

But I will not.

For I have lived well.

I have taught well.

I have loved well.

I am Eve. And you are my children.

I am the eternal fountain you can drink from at any time.

For I have planted my seed.

And I will always be your tree of life.
