I Owe You Nothing

I don’t owe you anything, Much to your chagrin. I accept your love, It is an insidious love. I give of myself to you, In the end, I get hurt. You always find some way, To needle me, To hurt me, To try to ensnare me, Under your sick, Demented way to Show your love.…
She

She is. . . A human being, Foremost and utmost with elegance and grace. She belly dances across the sky existing and emanating a spirit of mother Earth’s winds, Enchanting. She testifies As a survivor Of what horrible monsters do to hurt and destroy others. She’s a survivor She’s still HERE! A beauty she is…
In Its Finest Form

Though the forest never Consented to being razed, The oceans didn’t ask To be polluted with toxins, The ground never requested To be drilled deep for oil, The atmosphere didn’t demand To be filled with noxious poisons, And the earth doesn’t deserve To be destroyed and pillaged, Beauty still remains. Beauty is translucent, Underneath the…
Star in My Mind

I see a star at night and I think of you. I want to name it after you forever. The star emits a light parallel to your psyche. My sunshine, My star at night, My nightlight, My star in the day. When I think of you I think of starlight. Because you shine at me,…
Dissipate

Evaporate me. I hate you. Your conduct, Your attempt To always control Me. Grown me. I cannot take it. Let go of it. Your need to Control me. Manipulate me. Leave it be. Stop it already. Enough. —by Maria Mocha © 2020
I’m Not in Love

I’m not in love with you, Although I think of you often. I’m not in love with you, Even though I long to hear you. I spend time daily in my mind Dreaming and thinking of you. It’s like I feel deep within my heart That you might be the one for me. But my…
Be You, Do You

I write this post as I sit here finishing my green tea, goji berry and honey tea. In this world, there is pressure: pressure to succeed, pressure to be number 1, pressure from your family, your culture, maybe even your country. Pressure all over. Pressure is not good. Too much of it causes people to…
Brown Enchantment

Round, amber garnets of sincerity Glisten and stare back at me as I gaze upon their beauty. Refreshing as a cool rain breeze, delicious as a drop of honey satisfying as an autumn sunset, your eyes, your being, yourself enrich my heart and my soul when I think about you my dear. Your honesty and…
Heaven on Earth Is…

Listening to each chirp from the birds nearby As I awake at 6:00 a.m. Inhaling the sumptuous black tea, vanilla bean hot water and honey aroma present in my cup. Staring into the eyes of my soulmate’s face while we video chat. Breathing in the scent of a colorful array of freshly bloomed flowers. Watching…
Reticent Spine

The ice chips slither down me, I’ve been injected with coldness. Tons of ice travel from my brain, sneaking down my spine, laying dormant to the icicles I feel inside. The eyes of the abused, dead child, The posture of the homeless woman, A cold body from a wrong relationship, Reminds my heart my constant…
