~Limits~

Silence only

sticks to

the room

Until you

wake up

And realize

You’re not asleep

Stop asking

If I’m ok

Touching

My shoulder

Look in

The mirror

Instead

Of this

touch the earth

want to

be wild

unruly

Walk

not run

A sunset

never fades

Meander into

the mist

With me

Ground shifts

under my feet

Sometimes life

Is setting limits

Taking on what

You can

And leaving

What you can’t

I am ready

Like my heart

Slowly falling

In this room

Ice slowly

melting

let’s forget

all the things

that we say

One secret,

and now

nothing made sense

Wrap around

my heart

All around

But we have heartache

all the same

Some realities

are too awful

When our hopes

are high,

nothing can

touch us

With high hopes,

there’s always

a bright future
I’ll leave you to it

Never hesitates

Perfect surprise

Spinning

Round and round

Another day

In paradise

Sweet distractions

A moment came

to stop me on  a dime

~Sarah Mahina Calvello~

~Begginning~

Drops of wine
Like sorrow
In my glass

I want a spark
A light
On forgotten shelves
Velvet crushed
Garnets linger
On your tongue

When life

calls we have

a choice to answer

or to pretend

not to

hear it

Truth is a

matter of perspective

I tethered mine

free from the lies

Floating like

a feather

Ocean of violets

I don’t

belong here

But I will

wait for you

Obsessive thinking
The person

I once was
Frozen

Exhume

the past

this time
With careful fingers

This is

my final quest
To remove

my mask

It’s all good,

truly

If I’m

Gonna daydream

I might

as well

daydream big

The truth

is often painful,

but so is

living a lie

It’s okay to talk

about the past

Just don’t

Leave the door

Ajar

I’m so

distracted from the real thing

past

just falls behind
Echos

On canvas

Pale glass

Are memories

If a new

Beginning

is what i hoped for

this isn’t it

I wanted

a new beginning,

maybe I’m not

the only one

Turmeric stains

Bleeds golden

In my water

Neon honey

To reveal

The path

They say every

ending is a

new beginning

Sometimes it feels

like it’s just there

To hold your place

Long as you’re happy

Sometimes you gotta

turn your life around

it’s like they say

fortune favors

the brave

Isn’t life

always a plunge

into the great

unknown

Without goodbyes

you can’t look

forward to hello’s

All wired up,

I feel sometimes

everything falls in line

a way of

softening

the blow

In that moment

I was waking up

To myself

Take me

far beyond

imagination

Waking up from the dark

Just leaves you

In the light

Sometimes

saying nothing is better
Off here running,

here we go

~Sarah Mahina Calvrllo~

~Pennies~

You are

my handbag of choice,

I promise

That was

the moment

I knew I had

to let go

and trust

in the future

It’s all

Done and dusted

Now

it was aching,

Missing

you wanted

the rainbow

but you

got the rain

This life

is a ghost

of you

I’ll see you

before I fall

Asleep

Find answers

In the

Pouring rain

The only thing

riskier

is not taking

any risk at all
You’re clutching

at straws

Sky was

broken

I had to

wake up

my heart

is aching

For you

honey,

it was

aching

Being mysterious

suits you

words that

melt in

your hand

daisy chains

soft touches
Everything slow

I will map you out
And reveal your secrets

I just want to

Be alive

While I’m still here

Where did

the time go?

Oh one day

follows the next day

and it catches up

I don’t know

If it was rest

Or something else

Don’t want

to go to sleep

don’t want

to shut

my eyes

The way

it’s settled

softly on

your skin

As much

as we want to

there’s nothing

we can do

and that’s the hardest part

You’re

The fire

And the flood

I don’t know

My heart

Stumbles on things

I don’t know

Awake my soul

I look up from

my pillow

when i go

to sleep

I imagine you’re

there with me

Each tear

that flows

from my eyes

brings memories

of you

When morning

comes again

I have the loneliness

you left me

Each day

day drags

by until time

finally descends

on me

I found shelter

in your

undercover hideaway
There’s no

gravity to hold

me down for real

I can’t say

Anything

it's more than

my bits are worth
Yes, the world

can be a very small place

You know

the person who said

good thing’s come

to those who wait

is probably still waiting

Some trips

become stumbles

the trick is to stay

on your feet

You drink

with your eyes

before your mouth
Don’t want

to go to sleep

don’t want to shut my eyes

Pennies in a jar

What is

It being saved for?

Give me something

To believe

What I’m waiting for

Might already be done
