A collection of poems by Carla

1. Dancing in a hypnotic trance

Dance,

Dance,

Dance,

Like your in a trance,

Hearts beating as one,

The electricity is spun,

Tight like cotton wool you weave,

To and fro,

In and out, dancing the way it can be 

Just see,

The disco ball glistens with the promise of new beams tonight,

Live, Laugh, 

Dress up in the fashion,

Swinging the groove,

With your shoes sparkling in the moves,

Like jagger, like swayze,

R&B is in your making,

Pop does not stop,

So continue to bop,

A part of your hype,

Rhythm to the tunes,

Sway to the beat,

Collect the sonnets to you heartbeat,

Like a love poem collecting the hearts of everyone on stage,

Your swarming to others like a bee,

One whiff of that honey and your on your feet,

You let the beat stimulate your senses,

Arms moving and proving that you’ve got the grooves,

In these shady town tunes,

Finally alive again after all you’ve been through. 

2. In your Eyes

In your eyes is a warrior,

Blood of steel,

Hands like whips,

But she’s been asleep for far too long,

You’ve put her on the back burner for someone else,

And now she longs to be captain of her army, 

A fleet of a thousand,

Commanded under her name,

Yet they all lay asleep in a cage buried deep in your soul,

In your eyes is a gentle woman,

She cares for herself,

And is rewarded for her care,

Yet you’ve pushed her down too,

Into the very depths of your soul,

And you ask me;

‘Why am I so needy

Why am I so desperate

So sad all of the time,’ 

It’s because my dear,

You haven’t stopped to love,

Every nook and cranny that I love about you.

In this crazy, fast paced world we live in today, its hard to believe in Angels or spirit guides, but they’re there. You just have to listen. Open you heart to their messages and you will be immensely rewarded. 

I am only beginning to reach a state of nirvana, enlightenment whatever you call it. And this soul journey of mine will be beautiful. 

And to people who don’t agree with my opinion. Don’t spread hate. Only love. Love always conquers over evil. 

3. Shining, Thriving and Surviving

Am I really Alive

When I’m too afraid to die 

Am I living this life?

Or is it time to make lemonade?

I think on what’re my goals,

Obstacles too,

I’m a determined soul, I can prove to you,

That I have the power,

I’m confident and brave,

I’m going somewhere,

Not body else dares,

Away for my comfort zone 

Into the deep end 

The cold dark sea is waiting for me,

To surrender to the deep?

No I toss and turn in my sleep,

Demons keep me awake,

Am I really alive,

Or is that fake?

I strive to be me,

 is it enough?

Do you see me,

For who I am,

Braised and blue,

I am a brave Mouse,

I will show the world what to do,

When you feel like shutting down,

Get up again, that’s what I do.
