Anita Atina Poems

Bathed in the haze of love, we mistakenly believe
That we are vitally important to another
Or that we cannot live without
The subject of our affection
...

‘There is lots of love in the world,
But not for me’
We’ve all felt this way, at some point
But is this the real question?
...

unleashed
our souls soar together
a cascading melody
that deeply vibrates
...

O keeper of secrets

Reveal, as I am ready to receive
...

The mirror saw her
Walking briskly

The sunlight streaming in
...

There are times,
When things get too much,
The pain excruciating,
Our heart cries out for relief!
...

And so the warm day finally quietens,
Into a dark nights’ waiting arms;
I nestle into dreams, sliding into,
My favourite place, besides you.
...

I hear you
Though I may seem deaf, at this distance
I feel you
Though I may seem like a disappearing mirage
...

Let our words be mindful of feelings,
For even when it is not our intention to hurt another,
Words may evoke feelings, unintended,
Or reopen wounds from the past.
...

Its quiet now, after a long day at work
Phones finally hushed
Lights domino out
Black roads snake away
...
