there are times
that i just
fall in love
with the words
as they trickle down
from the sky
onto my forehead
cheeks and chest
as i passively delight
in the rippling touch
of every vowel
and consonant.
J. Belle
Poetry – words
Poetry – tucked away but not forgotten
i whispered into the night
i told it stories of new
and dreams of old
i closed my eyes
held your hand
so very tightly
may there be a thousand moons
and a thousand rising suns
I will never let go
of the vision i had
tucked into the deepest
darkest corner
of my mind.
J. Belle
Poetry – touch
I reach with my fingers
caressing the space
around me
molding it
like clay
forming shapes
lovely and smooth
I can not unsee it
the beauty
it warms my heart
and sets me free
J. Belle
Poetry – for now
For now,
I’ll just keep walking
the answer is
bound to wash up
on shore
eventually.
J. Belle
Poetry – Who I am
There are days
that even though
I know who I am
it’s hard to see
how I fit into
this world
around me.

Poetry – I told the sea
I told the sea about you
whispering softly
as the waves lap
at my ankles in reply…
J. Belle
Poetry – Ask the Ocean
I ask the ocean
breathe in
taste the salt air
listen to the waves
crash upon the rocks
call out to the seabirds
the fish in the sea
sand beneath my feet
dampness of my dress
clinging to my body
squinting searching
the horizon
I need something

Poetry – me, myself & I
me, myself and I
collectively sigh
i don’t know, I say
me neither
I quietly whisper
to myself
J. Belle
Poetry – your mind…
there are moments
when I miss
how it felt
when your mind
sat near mine
that emptiness
is grief…
J. Belle
Poetry – like no one is watching…
I am not willing
to give up
on the people
& world around me.
Instead
I choose
to dance
like no one
is watching
and love
like there is
no tomorrow.
