Daddy's Daughter
 
Dad, you wanted my name to be Julia 
Maybe because I was born in the 7th month 
Or what you liked that name, 
I am too late in this life to ask you about your wish. 
My mother wanted me to be called Maya, 
But there is a seal of 5 letters of that name carved in me.
Dad I send you a hug wherever you are, 
I'm sure you're in a better place than I am now. 
I love you, your Julia! 


AWAKENING
 
The awakening of the soul from the material shackles, 
The body of flesh and blood through the mind 
And false ego holds us back, 
But it is a trick for naive people. 
Let us rise above material conception 
And be in harmony as one living organism. 
Let us unite in unconditional love, 
we poets who convey the message through the magic word, 
Which is AWAKENING. 
Let us stand up as warriors of light 
And show others the path that leads to spiritual transformation 
And self-realization of the soul.
