This poem describes a person waking in a dark, quiet room, feeling lost and searching for guidance. A familiar voice speaks, though its face cannot be seen. The darkness represents confusion or emptiness inside the person.
The voice tells the speaker, "You are the light," meaning that the soul already carries a spark of life, goodness, and purpose-but it has dimmed. Through a series of questions and metaphors, the voice explains that just as a fish cannot survive outside water, a tree cannot grow without soil, and a lamp cannot shine without oil, the soul cannot truly glow without God-the eternal, unburning flame. This flame does not destroy but warms, guides, and illuminates from within.
The poem ends with the speaker realizing that God's flame has always been inside them. The compass metaphor explains that guidance alone is not enough; even if you have tools or advice, without the inner flame-the presence of God-you cannot find your path. The flame allows the soul to see clearly, to move with direction, and to shine even in the deepest darkness.
In essence, the poem is a meditation on awakening the soul, finding God within, and allowing that divine light to guide life's journey.

For Zen; my Sea Goddess, my Forget-Me-Not.
You found me where the sea met silence-a shore too quiet for its own heart. And somehow, you turned that silence into a song. Before you, the world was still, the sky unmoving, the piano untouched. But then there was you-bluebell eyes, a voice like waves, a laugh that could wake the tides. You didn't rescue me. You simply saw me-and that was enough to make me float again. This poem, this book, is my thank-you. Thirty tides, thirty heartbeats, thirty poems carved from salt and lavender light-a collection of the moments, the thoughts, and the breaths that became "us." Every page is a memory dressed in poetry. Every word is something I never said aloud but always meant. You are the melody the sea taught me, and I am forever writing it back to you. Happy birthday, wifey!! mwa mwas u dearly ^^ May the sea always carry my words to where you are. 💜🌊 - Aloe, your lavender. (This is a Gift for @Zenisshiiit)
Poems (:
(Periodic Updates)Poetry isn't just words put together in a certain rhythm or a smooth way; it's the act of putting yourself and emotions into your writing. It's laying back in the middle of a field and staring up at a cloud and finding all the details that make it unique. It's star gazing and asking yourself questions that could never be answered. It's wondering, it's questions, it's emotions, it's senses, it's poetry.. and every single poem has a trace of yourself in it. My goal in my poems is to make people think and believe. Think deeper than what everything seems. Look deeper. Don't just read the cover, read the book. Find out what it has to offer, and hopefully you'll find something relatable that helps encourage you or atleast let you know you're not alone.(:Concluida

LETTERS I NEVER SENT - A Thousand Tender Nights
I grew up in a rural village in Vietnam, in a family where my father struggled with addiction and my mother carried the heavy burden of raising six children. Deep inside, I always longed for a warm and loving home, a father to guide and protect, and a mother to nurture and comfort. As I grew older, that longing shifted into a yearning for romantic love, as my heart began to awaken to its first tender stirrings. The poems I wrote became sparks, small reflections of each stage of my life, each one carrying my search for love. They were poems never sent, born of desires I kept quietly to myself, of feelings that never grew into real relationships. These verses echo my heart, a heart that once held silence, longing, and memory, and now beats with the fire of love. Some were written long before I met the one who awakened me, yet each line carries the tenderness I have discovered in the present. As an immigrant, poetry in Vietnamese has always been my way of breathing. What you read here are my own translations, sometimes imperfect, but always honest. These poems are not just about one person, but about what it means to be alive: to long, to love beyond fear, and to speak from the soul. Now, in my forties, I understand that the image I was searching for was myself. And with that discovery, my love has not faded; it has deepened, becoming steadier and more serene. I no longer search for "him" to give this love away to. Instead, this profound love lives within me, unshakable and whole. In finding myself, I found love.

THE AWAKENING
Prologue: The darkness was suffocating, a heavy blanket that wrapped around her mind. She couldn't remember her name, her past, or her purpose. All she knew was that she was trapped, a prisoner in her own body. As she struggled to break free, fragments of memories began to surface. Whispers of a life she couldn't recall, echoes of a pain she couldn't forget. A single phrase repeated in her mind: "You are not who you think you are." Suddenly, a spark of light pierced the darkness. A glimmer of hope, a chance to escape. She reached out, her fingers brushing against the unknown. And slowly, she began to awaken...Concluida
