Soul Searcher

By Kimberly Jolanda

“Ascend through the mists of your mind and embrace your own awareness”

Life is a wondrous dance of contradictions. An ephemeral journey in search of meaning on a changeable path of dreams and reality, our existence shaped through joy and sadness, love and heartache, death and rebirth, and an intricate web of so much more.

Within the poetic pages collected in Soul Searcher, Kimberly invites you to walk along with her as she tries to find balance in these mercurial emotions, seeks a touch of magic in the mundane, and embraces her budding sense of awareness, hoping that her words will inspire, empower and gift a sense of tranquillity that encourages you to keep exploring your own soul searching journey; a path that none of us truly venture upon alone.

your unconditional support

my dreams...

All my love

these memories i hold

I am a soul searcher lost out in a sky of wishes, bleeding paint and stories onto the canvas of my life. I am a dreamer often looking within to find meaning without, my eyes ever straying to places only I know how to see. I am a romantic, a lover, a fighter, scarred and bruised yet not backing down. I am a keeper of yesterday and tomorrow, inking treasured thoughts upon my tender heart. I am a child, a girl, a woman, ever gathering these memories I hold.

a soul’s metamorphosis

Receiving

the gift of life, ink washes

into clouds in the sky;

From black to white,

I transform—a butterfly.

memory of pain

Rebirth regenerating,

silken wings tremble

and shiver,

Carefully reaching,

they tentatively aim

for the stars,

Breaking free

from the touch

of a lonely giver,

Gone upon a breath

are the aching remnant

of scars,

For one with the wild

whispering wind

I soar,

The memory of pain

keeping me chained

no more.

mortality

Featherlight

it dances along

this wildflower trail;

a white cotton

butterfly,

Its life so short,

yet so joyfully lived—

I watch it flutter past

and ponder

my mortality.
