Your World


Take a breathe, stand in silence and get lost inside of your own little world, inside your imagination. It’s a perfect world of your creation. You soak in the view of the distant trees and mountains, while you stand in the morning rays. You think, you could stay here for months, years and endless days. But you snap back to reality and all the pain, depression and anxiety come flooding back. You fall to your knees and curl up as to hold your self with your face to the ground, and towards the sky is your back. You long for the sensation of another person’s touch. To your heart you cling and clutch. You long to go back to the word you created. So that all your pain can be relieved and you can feel, I’ve again, satiated.

Aripari

I am a novice poet that believes that the best poetry comes from your heart and emotions. I am a Norse Pagan who just so happens to be transgender and lesbian. I believe that the whole world is my muse and I get inspiration from everyone and everything that I come into contact with. Words are some of the most powerful things that we as humans posses and if used right; they can change the hearts of many. Art comes in many forms and poetry is one of them. So why not change the world with art, one word at a time?
