So Many Hats (or Veils)

We play many roles in life and wear many hats: the human, the individual, the romantic, the man or woman, the parent, etc. 

Can you make a connection with someone who seems so foreign to you, someone who wears hats you can’t begin to understand? Hats that - on first glance - may even seem threatening to you? 

Is it possible to wear many hats without losing yourself, to integrate them into one “I”?

These are some questions I explore in my poetry, questions that float around in my head, under my own many hats.

Underneath

all my hats,

my eyes—

they stay the same.

Windows

into my soul,

that’s ’who

“I”

am.

I am not

any of my hats

or roles.

I’m just another

kindred 

soul.

Sofia

“Burn”

Burn in shelter, in escape, in refuge

Burn in a sacred secret space of destiny

Burn in shame or in contentment

Burn in ecstasy

Burn in sweetness or in endeavours of sacrifice

Burn layers of ego, shadows, traumas, and hidden vice

Burn the falsehood of earthly fights

Burn your depths to screams and aches

Burn, your flames will light the way for others to find

Burn my love

Burn in delight

On a journey of the self, the seeking for clarity and wisdom, yearning for a connection with the higher self - this comes with highs and lows, pushes and pulls, resistance, liberation, blazing passion, and calm surrender. 

Sofia’s secrets of the blue will take you on a journey, surfing these tides of longing. This collection of poetry is a search for spiritual enrichment in the pursuit of unity.

Soulfully Scribbled

Scribbling, scribbling on the wall,

A wall of love, hate… Full of uproar

A piece of art began to fall

From my heart, striking it all

Into fragments from my soul

Shattered, broken chaos uproar

Striving to remedy my life-long scar

Scribbling, scribbling on the wall…

Start A Fire!

Christian Williams lost his dad when he was just six years old, which developed an extremely driven, disciplined, and competitive personality. He never relied on anyone; he had to find his own way as a boy growing into a man. Some would say he is like a machine, doesn’t feel many of the painful emotions many of other people complain about. His dad documented the painful last four years of his life in a diary that was kept for Christian until he was at the age that he chose to read it. What happened to Christian’s life after he read it was a sign that his father is still guiding him from above. He takes you on the journey of how influential our parents’ lives can be to us, for better or for worst.

It teaches individuals to be more alert and safer in the surrounding that they are in. This book simply goes through the importance of first aid awareness, as well as specific first aid manoeuvres and in which situations these techniques should be applied.

Still Here

Broken childhood, broken dreams.

Never heard, yet misunderstood.

Is a home a safe place to be?

In this captivating work of extended verse, immerse yourself in the poignant tale of a woman yearning to break free from the shackles of her past. Caught in a web of tangles and knots, she finds solace in her solitude, dreaming of a life unrestrained and full of wonder. With plans woven in her mind, she embraces the quiet corners of her world, seeking refuge in the pages of her own thoughts.

As she navigates the harshness that surrounds her, she keenly feels every emotion, adapting and surrendering to the circumstances. Though made to feel fortunate for mere survival, she knows deep down that true happiness eludes her. Restless nights plagued by guilt, fear, and unfulfilled desires push her to fight her own battles, determined to overcome personal obstacles rather than wandering into the lives of others.
