The Circle of Fifths – March 17, 2018

“The love cube” Art by Phoenix Colours @phoenixd22 • Phoenix Colours

I love her work, and love the way her colors depict heart, mind, and soul in balance. Feminine and masculine energies in unity becoming one. *

“The love cube” is a beautiful digital musical art combination by @phoenixd22

And I’m honored to collaborate with her once again with a poem I created that goes with my love for music, art, and MATH😍💕💕💕

It’s about seeing art, music, and math as a whole – like a rainbow – a circle- it is all one and the same 🌈🙏🏻💕 in honor of Albert Einstein’s Birthday (3.14) I wrote these words to go with @phoenixd22 beautiful art- thank you Yassi 😘💕💕💕

“The Circle of Fifths”

💫

The universe is an infinite mathematical equation always trying to balance itself out.

A soft flow.

A dance to a geometric symphony.

An elegant spiraling of romantic movements where math and art become one.

💫

There’s a scintillating energetic transference.

A rhythmic expansion and contraction.

A whimsical conquering between feminine and male divinity.

A twist of love bonding two hemispheres that were once seas apart.

💫

A cube-bounded sphere twirling.

Creating waves of exuberance and joy in a coming together.

A union.

A deep desire to give and re-give in an infinite circuit of love.

💫

A toroidal field.

Of energy flowing, backwards and forwards.

A tango of love.

Emanating in emerald green colored musical notes.

💫

A pentagram formed of thirteen spheres rotating inside a cube of love.

Vibrations exuding from the motion of stimulating rainbow light.

A deep remembrance of two becoming one.

And back into the heart.

💫

Music: Lucid Feel

Unbreakable – 1.30.18

There are moments we feel like we are breaking.

Where does time start and where does it end ?

Are these patterns so circular in motion that they almost feel impossible to break through ?

A struggle.

A desperate internal battle to be freed from our own lies.

Lies we learned.

Lies we tell ourselves.

A perception of a made up happiness instilled upon us.

A constant seeking outside ourselves.

A yearning.

A desire to break through illusions we created for ourselves.

To find honesty.

To find everything we missed inside ourselves.

To remember.

To find love.

A Melodic Swirl of Love ~11.13.2017

We are sunflowers.

A Melodic swirl of Love,

swaying softly together.

🌞

Drenched under the rays of golden,

In an Infinite circuit holding hands,

twirling in a majestic dance,

And mesmerized under

the spell of the sun.

🌞

Together.

We never falter,

Our hearts glowing

to the beat of the sun,

the Tunes quenching our thirst,

As the earth pirouettes around the sun,

and we reach out into the sky,

Longing for more.

🌞

Our faces beaming,

and our hearts gleaming,

We float into the heavens,

Drunken by the light,

Spilling our dreams over,

As we shower the earth,

with our love.

Fear Less – 11.22.2016

image1-1

Human nature tends to fear and walk away from that which we can’t comprehend.

Because we cannot relate, or fit it perfectly inside a little box, we dissociate ourselves from it, and as such, we bind ourselves to the limits of our own beliefs; our sweet warm comfort zones.

We were conditioned and taught as children to mistrust; to fear that which is unknown and different from ourselves.

But yet, when we have challenged ourselves to overcome our fears, we have performed beyond our wildest imagination.

When we have thrown away those boxes inside our heads, and listened to the beats of our hearts, we’ve generated plenitude of magic.

When we have excitedly flung ourselves into the abyss of the unknown, we’ve created numerous unforgettable adventures.

And when we’ve engaged and shared with people from other walks of life, all with a different story to tell; each of them bringing different gifts of bold bright colors, we’ve encountered soul enriching life-changing moments; surmountable amounts of growth.

Therefore, we mustn’t settle for “just” good enough.

We mustn’t fear that which is different, because different might just be exactly what we were looking for.

Fear less. Be bold. Start living.

Have fun.

Help Each Other.

A Quiet Space In A Moment ~ 11.14.2016

Picture taken by me on 11.14.2016, Miami, FL

She desparately wondered,

And sincerely admitted to

Her fear,

Her fear of valuing their relationship too much.

Her fear that he did not cherish her the same way in which she cherished him.

She wondered if the connection she felt so real was all but in her mind. 

That the love she had for him,

Was not truly being reciprocated back in equal parts,

The not knowing.

The uncertainty.

She anguished over it.

It tortured her.

And then is when I looked deeply into her eyes and implored her,

“Let me ask you this,”

If you could hear the beats of his heart,

And see who it dances for,

Would that change the way you feel about him?

And in that quiet space of that moment,

She was changed.

True Love Waits – 10.20.16

radiohead-ok-computer-song-meaning-true-love-waits-two

We let anger get the best of us.

We have no idea why we feel we must behave a certain way,

When it’s all just a quest,

A voyage to find our lost selves,

We plow through, but forcefully,

Hurting the ones we love,

Unintentionally,

All because our soul is screaming to break free,

But we did not know.

We did not understand.

So we created sparks,

Turmoil and waves,

A collateral damage

Which still remains,

And it’s not until that moment

That it all clicks.

That we could have gotten to our destination,

In another way,

A better way.

There is always, a gentle way,

To seek our truths.

It starts with forgiveness.

Happiness the biggest illusion of all? 10.13.16


Sometimes I wonder if we actually create are own realities,
Or if we simply learn to see colors where none truly exist.

Could it be that some of us have trained ourselves to see the beauty in everything so that we may simply bear to live our otherwise boring lives full of society based rituals and mundane routines?

 Have we learned to truly enjoy every breath taken? Or have we simply learned to freeze time by converting that one special moment lived into an eternal memory; only a minute within a 24 hour day lived, with the remaining 1,439 minutes of fast paced nonsense spent, and already forgotten. 

All but to rush into bed just to relive that one minute memory, but in a dream.
Could it be that we’ve only become complacent and feel happy simply because we made up our minds up to be? 

Is what we tell ourselves once we’ve learned to love ourselves simply another illusion?

Are we truly the special ones that can transmute darkness into light? Can we truly bring a glimmer of light in the darkest of places, always enchanted by the magic we see in the everyday things?

The optimists, the game changers, the ones that smile through the tears.

Is this true happiness, or simply a coping mechanism?

This is why we must be led by our hearts, and allow ourselves to feel. Feel everything, feel it all, but then address those feelings. Analyze them. Don’t let them leave you and be forgotten without truly understanding where those feelings came from. 

Connecting the heart (our leader) with our minds (our guardian) is the only way to break through the illusions.

Only then is when we can truly find authenticity; true happiness.

Blind Folded – 9.22.16

Photographer Unknown
She felt relieved.

His tight grip finally letting go of her arm, having had her pinned down on the floor for weeks now.

She had been unable to move.

Forced to stay still.

In a frozen state,

Made to observe,

The things she’d done.

The sadness she’d caused.

The lies she had told herself.

And it was not until she took responsibility for it,

That he finally released her.

Tears spilled down her eyes as she recognized herself in the mirrors that he had placed before her,

He whispered “don’t be so hard on yourself, you were blindfolded; you didn’t know better.”

And with a small wave of his hand, and as to give her a short break,

Mercury Retrograde smiled and walked away.

Deep into the Darkness- 9.7.16

look-up-at-light
Picture taken by me, 9/7/16 “You are not forever in the dark. Look up. There’s the Light”

 

I often wonder if nature is a poet.

Painting a picture,

As it portrays a story,

Ever so symbolically,

Of lessons to learn,

Of things to come.

 

The character in this story,

Has limited view of what lies ahead.

A long dark road being enveloped in total darkness,

A lightning storm of conflict building up further ahead.

 

The character is faced with a choice,

Either turn back and run away,

Or find some bravery within him,

And face the chaos that has been waiting up ahead.

 

And as the character approaches this tunnel of darkness,

With unclear and unsettling eyes,

The poet whispers, “go bravely on, this is the way,”

And with a stroke of his brush, paints a magical rainbow high in the skies,

Above the darkest of clouds, to lead the way.

 

Thus depicting one of nature’s favorite folklore tales;

That speak of facing obstacles to find greater opportunities,

That tell us we must go deep into to the darkness, in order to find the light within ourselves.

The Hidden Path~ August 30, 2016 

Picture taken by me at Muir Woods , CA 8.27.16

Why are we born with a feeling of emptiness ?
Even as children we feel this desperate longing to find happiness outside ourselves.
We walk through an abyss of nothingness,

Trying to get it.

An incredible longing to find true love.

Is it childhood conditioning?

Or is it more than that?

A feeling that drives us, that makes us feel as if though we are searching,

For someone. For something.

So we seek and crawl.

And we love, and lose.

And we learn.

And we keep searching, almost desperately as if thirsting for air.

So we love again, and lose again.

And then finally, through this loss, we learn there’s freedom in letting go,

Unlocking a key to a new self discovery,

A self realization that what we had been  aching for was always sitting inside ourselves.

That what we had always been searching for was our very own soul.

And had we not felt that unquenchable emptiness, we would have never been driven,

To find it.

To awaken.
