Here's the key
I promise the door is always open
My mind is disappointed
But my heart is hoping
I nearly gave up on searching
Till I picked up the pieces that were broken
All the while I pray that you come home
Please like, comment, follow and share. It makes all the difference in the world to me.
Love always, Ayesha

I was painted blue with your love. But I'll get back up again. Only to swim in the sea of another's eyes. To sail in the dreams of a new lovers mind. To forget about the memories I choose not to remember. To push away the old feelings I'd rather leave behind. You are the cushion of old familiarity like a couch I became use to. The groves of a body settled into place. Accustomed to seeing your form and caressing your face. But when I needed comfort. I couldn't find you. No more swimming in blue oceans looking for the end of rising tides. It's time for a new adventure my heart is in need it something I can call mine.
Love always, Esha <3

Take me to your island
Where I can bask in the sweet sun
Swing in the night breeze
And frolic until my work is done
Just breath easy
No expectation for the anticipation
Of conversation
In truth, I want to rest
Experience joy, peace and happiness
No hurt in my voice
No ache in my chest
An end to the shakiness of breath
Where is the curve in the rainbow
Does it wait for me?
In the midst of this craziness
Can a misunderstood soul
Discover the bedrock of tranquility?
Sleep anxious body
Lay down your nervous flesh
You’ve held on long enough
Too tired to be emotional
Too emotional to be tough
So take me to your island
Where I can bask in the sweet sun
Swing in the night breeze
And frolic until my work is done
Twist and turn on a path outlined by cleared foliage
It leads through the bush
To a shoreline that sore soles need
Play in the warm sand
Drip excited toes in refreshing water
Afterward laugh and smile
Forget my troubles for a little while
This is my day to be free
Live with comfort
Wind down with ease
The ebb and flow of palm trees is a sight to behold
They gave pause to a worried mind
And silence to a complex feeling
Their leaves shift from side to side
Yet the bark stands tall
Love always, Esha

Open hearts await for your call
Horns sounds at the mention of your name
Sadness fades at the acknowledgment of your greatness
Old news has been placed on the back porch
Shrubbery can never replace the burning bush from which you spoke
Silent minds lay ready and eager for thoughts capable of filling them
Sheep graze in the pasture waiting for a shepherd to lead them
Even when one has gone astray, He chases after it
So we await the voice of the loving redeemer
We pray for blessings curious eyes have yet to see
A brighter tomorrow gilded by the triumphant sound of victory

Fear has become a fad in this dystopian society
People are afraid of everything
They run from the sight of their own shadow
Turning a blind eye to the truth that discomforts their achy soul
Irritated by those who speak their mind freely
Disgusted by narratives they are unable to control
There is no argument to be had
Because utilizing discourse to find common ground
Has gone out the window
So their right by default
And anyone that disagrees is at fault...
If your brother sees the world through a different lens
Why cling to disdain?
Can you not love through disagreements?
Make peace with a difference of opinion
Search for the truth instead of accepting lies
Spoon fed to you through TV
But fallacy will hold you
And reality will leave you cold
It takes a strong mind to believe in something
Beyond what their told
Make an effort to see past the moment
Look forward instead
Because the person you ignore
May butter your bread
But an empty soul can't be fed
Love always, Esha <3
What is liberty?
Is it the ability to determine your future?
The right to make up your own mind
The leisure to make medical decisions free form coercion
Is it tied to selecting a career of your own choosing?
Does it lose validity if the path is picked for you?
Can freedom be limited by the venues you can or can't frequent?
Or is it inalienable rights passed down through citizenship?
What does liberty feel like?
Does it go on smooth like lotion
Or does it go down bitter like unsweetened poison?
When liberty is denied its existence becomes a notion
Love always, Esha <3
