The Boy Who Skips Stars on Lakes of Dreams

"He is spun of magic and light and the dreams of gods."

The Boy Who Skips Stars on Lakes of Dreams
Lisandra Soto

With one look he gives me everything I have ever wanted, A shiver down my spine

A stroke on my hand, a brush of the lips, a laugh

His voice is warm like golden sun unfolding every tight thing inside of me

He is spun of magic and light and the dreams of gods

The universe has a long memory but it has never seen someone like him

There was darkness then there where stars and when they exploded our particles came to earth It is from there that I know him,

it was from the beginning of time that I recognize his spirit, the stardust in me recognized the star dust in him

bound by a force more ancient than the world / in a million years, in a million lifetimes That is my promise – that is what we all have - a promise, a hope, a journeys end

under new stars with new dreams

until the universe takes its last blinks

we are all part of a greater story listen lovers and fighters to another story

there was a good queen with a kingdom that she protected fiercely she was powerful in her own right and wise beyond her years

but love touches us all

there was a good king with his own kingdom that was his legacy a warrior bound to his land, to protect and love forevermore

the king and the queen fell in love but they had their own lands

so the universe decided that perhaps under new stars and another sun

time and love never correlate if only love was space

when you opened your eyes the sun got jealous because you can paint brightness in the world with your honey words and sugar intentions - the world should look out for you are brighter than the sun

the stars are jealous and they talked to fate so that we couldn’t be they knew we could raise the world in glory and then burn it down as long as we had each other

the constellations are jealous of your beauty and wish they could blink and look the way you do


more than that when you were born the jewels in the world stopped sparkling as brightly for you outshined them all

A catch in my breath, a lingering look, your hand on the small of my back

I look into your eyes and see so much that I had never seen before in any other pair The dreams of Alexander the great, the love and poetry of Fitzgerald, the intelligence of a genius

You took my hand and we could have conquered the world right there and then, if only you see mi amor the universe could not let such power exist on this earth so

You are gone now, but I trust, I look at the stars We are under the same ones Both part of a bigger story

I see our future, I see mitted hands in a red coat. Somewhere cold, unlike our homes; I see dark hair falling over my shoulders a black winter hat. My hand in your white mitted one with a light blue sweater and a smile matched with your brown neat fluffy hair

So I wish on every star in the sky one by one every night and I hope

That is all I can do, that is all anyone can do and I remember my promise.

In a million lifetimes - A promise, a hope, a journeys end

Greater stories will have their way, mi amor

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
