freshly cut flowers
standing in a vase
the sounds of vivaldi
dancing softly on the air
her light steps
upon bare feet
gliding
across the room.
flores recién cortadas
de pie en un jarrón
los sonidos de vivaldi
bailando suavemente en el aire
sus pasos ligeros
con los pies descalzos
deslizamiento
través de la habitación.
her fractured soul
a cathedral of beauty
wrapped in pain
as the bloom of the rose
is protected
by thorns
her purity swims
in oceans of doubt.
su alma fracturada
una catedral de belleza
envuelto en dolor
como la flor de la rosa
esta protegido
por espinas
su pureza nada
en océanos de duda.
her words spin
sculpted
from ivory bone
etched deeply
in crimson script
as weightless as air
yet heavier still
than darkest sin.
sus palabras giran
esculpido
de hueso de marfil
grabado profundamente
en guión carmesí
tan ligero como el aire
aún más pesado aún
que el pecado más oscuro.
and within her
duality
within her
beauty
lies the true treasure
she is inspiration
shining brightly
from her heart of gold.
y dentro de ella
dualidad
dentro de ella
belleza
miente el verdadero tesoro
ella es inspiración
brillando
de su corazón de oro.

i am learning our views of self and how other’s perceive us can be radically different. it is a hard thing to accept. but sometimes the truth and our own truth are polar opposites.
