emotions

Vonita 11 Comments

emotions are gentle waves lapping the soft warm sand of a sun-kissed beach.

emotions are raging storms that toss the largest ships as if they were a child’s toy.

emotions are tiny bubbles that sparkle and effervesce as giggles that cannot be contained.

emotions are salty tears that drench our cheeks with their relentless downpour.

they are pastel shades of a mother’s love, that overwhelming poignancy of meeting her newborn babe.

emotions speak truth and tell the tallest lies.

they are dark and white, and grey and light.

they are all the colours of the rainbow, and the blackest dream in which to drown.

emotions are life and the only thing that emotions are not

Is death. 

Follow the Leads

I love the thought that we don’t always have to be striving for an ending in sight. We don’t need to be following a ‘plan’. Sometimes we just need to follow the leads. To be still and listen to our hearts. Listen to the stirrings of our souls. And be true to what we hear.

Be soft enough to hear, and gentle enough to feel. Be willing to be moved. And then follow the leads. 

Allow ourselves to be surprised.

I’m officially a graphic design student since Monday, woohoo! Which means I need to learn how to sketch.

This is my first ever drawing ever. At the age of five I decided I couldn’t draw or paint, so I never have. But now, needs must!

Pots of Paints

Vonita 4 Comments

Colors and shapes and pots and paints

Pop up bright and come to life 

I breathe them in

My soul feels light 

I never ever want the black and grey 

I never ever want the beige and dull 

I choose the colour 

I choose the white 

I choose a new palette

I paint a new way.
