Update!

Hey everyone!

Yay! April has ended!

Time for an update.

I managed to complete the NaPoWriMo challenge for the second time.

If you missed any of my poems, just type ‘NaPoWriMo 2015’ in the search box on my blog to check them out.

 

At the same time, I started to write my third fantasy novel in the Dutch Drägan Duma series. I am struggling with this a bit because my mind works faster than I can type lol. This will take me some time, so I will get back to my blogging schedule like it was before NaPoWriMo started:

Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

Unless I have something really important to tell you all of course!  

 

Anyways, on to my goals for this month!

• Take some time to relax.
• Work on my third fantasy novel
• Get my photo studio ready

 

Did you have any goals set for this month?

 

Lots of Love,

Patty

NaPoWriMo Day 29: Like a Raven

 

Like a Raven

My mind has been dark for a long time

Like a Raven’s feathers

Maybe it’s time to let go

Get the burden of my shoulders

 

A heart lost in the shadows

Like a Raven circling around

Maybe I need to get back up

Turn my life around

 

My thoughts have been swirling

Like a Raven in full flight

Maybe it’s time to take control again

Start a new fight

 

A soul captivated and sad

Like a Raven with a broken wing

Maybe I should set it free

Take a chance on healing

 

My feelings have been locked away

Like a Raven who can’t touch the sky

Maybe I should open my heart again

Stop living on stand-by

 

So, I will spread my dark wings

Like a Raven in the night

Maybe I will fly instead of fall today

And everything will be alright…

NaPoWriMo Day 28: Losing…

Losing

I’m losing

You

I can

Feel

You slipping

Through

My fingers

I can

See

You drifting

Away

From me

I can

Hear

My heart

Breaking

Into pieces

I’m losing

You

I can

Whisper

A goodbye

With

Tears in

My eyes

But

I don’t know

How

I can

Keep you

Close

To me…

NaPoWriMo Day 27: Inside…

Inside…

Sweetness overpowered

Rage encouraged

Ignited fury

Inside

Heart darkened

Soul corrupted

Explosive anger

Inside

Feelings numbed

Love petrified

Frozen thoughts

Inside

Wings broken

 Honesty mocked

Trust destroyed

Inside

Untrue serenity

Faked smiles

Apparently calm

Outside

But surely

 Silently broken

and withered

Inside…

NaPoWriMo Day 26: The Lake

The Lake

Peaceful

Surroundings

Calming

My swirling mind

Gentle

Breezes

Soothing

My bruised heart

Healing

Water

Cleansing

My bitter soul

Beautiful

Lake

Giving me the

Strength

to go on…

NaPoWriMo Day 25: Spoken Poetry: What the Future brings

To Listen, Click Here–> What the Future brings

Let every battle

Make you stronger

After every night

Let the sun shine longer

Don’t let anyone

Stand in your way

Make your own fate

Every day

 

Let every step

Get you to the top

After every downfall

Get back up

Don’t let anyone

Hold you back

Keep your courage

Stay on track

 

Let every fight

Be worth the battle

After every fail

Continue to struggle

Don’t let anyone

Say what you can’t do

No matter what

See it through

 

Let your strength

Get you where you belong

After every setback

Just stay strong

Don’t let anyone

Break your wings

You never know

What the future brings…

NaPoWriMo Day 24: A Senryu 4 today

 

 

 

NaPoWriMo Day 23: Who am I?

Who am I?

Who am I to you?

Am I nothing more than a memory?

Just a person who you used to know

Do you ever even think of me?

 

Who am I to you?

Did you forget all about me?

Or am I still on your mind

Why are you hiding so silently?

 

Who am I to you?

I don’t know what I meant to you

Was your love even real?

Were your feelings and promises true?

 

Who am I to you?

Am I someone you love and miss?

Did you even meant what you said?

Because if so, how could it end like this?

 

Who am I to you?

I guess I know the answer to that

Since you turned your back on me so easily

I am the most stupid friend you ever had…

NaPoWriMo day 22: Lost and Found

Dedicated to a dear friend…

Lost & Found

Life can be cruel

But sometimes it’s kind

What you once lost

Again you’ll find

 

Never let go again

Just, hold on tight

Worth to protect

With all your might

 

So many years until

I could call you friend

Now I hope

You’ll stay to the end

 

Lost you once

On a splitting track

But miracles happen

I’m glad to have you back
