Love

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

As I was walking in the fun fair

Looking for some music to chill

The sound of the bumping cars found my ears

It was the loudest sound I ever heard


At first glance, it looked terrifying

Everyone going so fast, getting hit, and hitting others on purpose

Why were they smiling for getting hurt?


Then I watched closer

Those weren't just smiles

Their laughs sounded like a color I've never experienced

Existing

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

Deep in life

There is something called existing

It doesn't involve talking, listening or performing

It's not watching something to pass time,

Not even writing or making art

Simply being, quiet or singing

Standing in place, laying or dancing


It's quite a hard hobby to achieve

Doing nothing, while feeling everything

Feels like a calming night

With chills all over you


Existing teaches you a lot of...

Bee.

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

In some ways, it was nice to be the one leaving, instead of the one being left


You were filled with anger and sadness

Sometimes reminded me of my past

Never the same soul,

But I could see my child in you

The one that hid in the room and thought till the night was over


Your love stang harder than a thousand bees

Yet I stayed for so long

Because something in me believed I could heal you

Like I did...

Handmade

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

My mother tried teaching me

But the World spoke to me in a different way

Only I could hear


Philosophy tried to hold me

But my head came up with the weirdest ideas

No philosopher ever wrote about


Even the people I chose helped in their ways

And their presence was bright and shiny

Turning lights on in my room

But it was my mind that had the switch


All along,

Advice was always there

But it didn't ...

Sunflowers

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

In a world full of roses, be a sunflower

The one who shares light

The one that came from the dark but found the sun

And is now ready to show roses how to look at it


I like roses

They're red, or white

Romantic souls ready to love

But ultimately alone, they usually prefer the night

Because it's calming and nostalgic


I prefer the day

Sunflowers rest at night so they can follow the brightness of the...

Look for the fear

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

The sky isn't pretty like it was yesterday

It's a darker shade of blue

And the clouds are moving faster.

Not the dark grey kind,

Just nostalgic white


They hide the dark sky

Infinite of unknown universe

Like the unknown of the future


You can see one that stopped moving

Between the rushed ones

It doesn't have a face nor a body

She's just there, standing, staring back at me


She reminds of the days...

The storm in her heart

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

She is not a pessimist

She sees the world as it is

Ruined, or as light as the wind

Day by day goes with bliss


"I am tired" says she

In between the climb

She who has fought storms

And won every time


The world around, chaos only

Eyes blinded by the darkness

That's why she learned

To never be heartless


She saw it all

The Sins's fire corrupting

And still she felt only

Her love erupting


Because lif...

The gift of courage

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read


People tell me to be carefull

To look before stepping ahead

And to think before acting


People tell me I should fear

I should plan everything

Never risk anything...


And for the longest time,

I did it

I lived carefully and peacefully

Worrying about even walking


I didn't dance because I could get hurt

I ignored strangers because they could be frauds

I stayed home because anything could happen

A Lover

Inês Sousa Dias

1 min read

He has the dying scent

The kind you smell and understand

It is falling apart from everything it's gone through


He was a fallen angel

Living in Hell and still, broken,

Loving like no human can


Then the sky received another angel

And the stars above sing his name

Like a thank you letter


On Earth, you can only find him

On the flowers that rot alone

Because no smell will love better

Than the one f...
