I love words. Words never go unnoticed. They move, create, translate, bind and tear apart. Some people know how to use them so well. Here you can find some linguistic beauty I can't let go unnoticed. Maybe even an attempt to use them well myself.

ladybird

mock me, mock me little ladybird
stop me, stop me
ladybird
stop watching me in mockery

i know i’m making me
making me look like a fool
make me look like you
red and black would do me good

i am only trying, little ladybird
trying to make this part of me
depart from me
leave the lying zone in grey

i believe in life
i live
convinced that hurting me,
flirting with
lowness, magnitude, giant pride
and endless emptiness

makes me more of a human
makes that i can
stand next to anyone and
understand

little ladybird
be pretty and be black and red
and don’t let me and my foolish thoughts
mess with your cute dotted little head
