Hello, Spring.

My favorite season has finally alighted! The rays of sunlight are warmer and more scintillating. I can finally feel the breeze, blowing ever so softly through windows and leaves, and the flowers are in full efflorescence and color. There's always something about the coming of spring, and how it brings about a whole new sense of wonder, adventure, and hope. ❁

The balcony is easily my favorite spot now.

Pretty pink flowers.

Difficult.

That word has always connoted a negative meaning to me. At this point in my life, I can say that I have met that word countless times, and yes, it has never been easy. It has struck fear in me, made me carry a huge burden, and made me feel disappointed and frustrated to the point of almost giving up.

But this time around, I will strive to turn that word around and look at it in a positive light. I know now that if everything was a breeze and was handed to me on a golden platter, I would take life for granted and never learn or grow up. And so it begins... today, I accept the challenges that lie ahead, with my eyes set above and my heart humbled.

A Dance With You.

You asked me to dance with you,
then you gently take my hand.
We were shy at first,
but time changed who we are.
We talked about things we never knew,
and laughed at the silly things we do.
You looked into my eyes
and I see a glimpse of who you are.
The moment's magic swept us away,
as our feet glided amongst the bright lights.
But the music stopped,
we had to part,
and a tiny piece
broke off from my heart.

Now Is The Start.

I'd like to start something new, but that doesn't mean I'm abandoning poetry altogether. I just feel like it's time to breathe new life into this blog, and continue to do so for as long as I can. I hope you can share this adventure with me. ♡

Here's what my current state of mind looks like.
