Tra fiori selvatici e vino, I toast the ghosts that never learned to leave me.
I tear the petals, I drain the bottle, I dare the night to swallow me whole.
I bloom where I burn.

Two Strangers Part Two
Two Strangers met
And accidentally fell in as more than lovers
We had different demons but matching wounds,
And sad past tales to tell
Two broken souls
Trying to find some guidance home within each other
Sadly,
The echos of fear, ego, and past trauma were too great
Destruction and self-sabotage got in the way
We became lost
From drowning in your gaze
Skin to skin
To drowning in your absence
Another scar to add to the map
Out in the cold again
At war with my head again
Two Strangers met
And fell in as more than lovers
But Love is war
Life is chaos
And two lovers became two strangers again.– Two Strangers Part Two

Two Strangers
You smell like rain and I want to be a part of your storm.
Drown me in your gaze.
Rearrange my mind.
Hold me close,
Skin to skin.Keep me warm from the cold of the outside world
And the world inside my head.Our demons may be different,
But we wear matching wounds.Tangled bones and a map of scars.
Just trying to find some guidance home.– “Two Strangers”

The sad truth is
No one else can save you.You have to dust away the misery.
Darker times behind, darker times ahead
We are endlessly changing.Facing scattered dreams,
Silent screams.Bleeding for a thousand reasons.
Rebirth,
The heart beats slow.Safe in quiet places
Seeking my own comforts,
My own means to stay alive.Jacqueline Lente Poetry

I’ve vanished in the silence.
Buried everything in boxes, in the attic of my mind.
Creaking thoughts
Always trying to escape.
My heart,
A garden of lost things
And empty spaces.

Creaking skeletal trees.
Wolves with kerosene eyes.
Ghosts crying in the walls
While winter slowly creeps behind me.
This internal battle is on the edge of dying dreams.
Life plays the dark symphony
The nights grow even longer, draped in the veils of wistful sorrow,
And a small dying hope for better days.

We Become One
As the sun sets over the mountains and darkness becomes night,
Our souls reset for another day.
Our hearts settle.
Our minds may race processing the day that is done.
Our body lays to rest.As the sun sets over the mountains and darkness becomes night,
We become one with our true self.

Over The Horizon, Into The Sunset
Our journey awaits over the horizon and into the sunset.
Through the waves and the storms we must face.
During the battles and the darkness, we can find peace in the hidden rays of the light of the sun shining over, watching over us.
Guiding us to freedom and love.
The journey of adventure and experience, growth and wisdom; the journey of our divine soul awaits over the horizon and into the sunset.

Black and White, Full of Colour
Sometimes life is black and white.
Other times life is full of colour.
It is what it is
And we take it as it comes.
Hazy and delusional,
Or clear as day.
Clarity from the demons,
And time to love and play.
Black and white,
Full of colours,
Life is both day and night.

Paradoxical Mind
The mind is a paradox of both dark and light moments and thoughts.
Without the dark we cannot see the light.
Without the light we cannot learn from the darkness.
Both intertwined in perfect balance,
For our exploration of our inner soul and divine soul journey.

Scars Linger For A Lifetime
Faded memories
Faded time
I can just remember when i used to call you mine.
But you left a scar on me that i can not forget. A scar on me that i can not shake.All the emotions of love and happiness, pain and sorrow intertwined.
How you made me feel is what still lingers here;
You brought me up to pure bliss
and pulled me down into the dark abyss.Our story is one that goes all around.
We closed that chapter of our lives and started a new
But you left me hanging in the end, with unanswered questions and an empty heart, a lonely bed.You still linger in my head.
The scar never fading, and a new perspective on love, life and change.– “Scars Linger For A Lifetime”

Bring Me Escape
Hold me tight,
Bring me escape.
The shadows of the world fall too heavy upon my face.
I feel so out of it,
Like I don’t belong,
At all in this place.– “Bring Me Escape” – Jacqueline Ann Lente

When The Mind Gets Messy
My dear, I know the mind can get messy as emotions are all jumbled up.
But your soul is still beautiful,
Your heart, still strong;
And your spirit still flows wildly with every passing day.
The darkness is the truth in reality,
Sometimes it’s the bittersweet knowledge that we come face to face with,
That brings us to clarity and understanding.
Although the journey can be tough and troublesome,
The universe is guiding you to the right way to live a full life and be free.
Find your peace amongst the chaos and hold on.
All the pain and struggle are worth it in the end.
