You are the light in my darkness,
But you are also the darkness
Within my light

7x Mini LOVE Poems. Part 1
I am working on a poetry book titled ‘The Dark, The Light & The Shaded Parts Of Love. It is a long work in progress but I thought I would upload a few sections on it as I go. I will continue on to share some different parts with you all and what better than to begin with the part on ‘The Light Of Love.’
I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy creating them. Let me know what you think and what part you would like me to share with you next.
Here are seven quick ones to start you off.
You stand out in every way
Even when you think you don’t, you do
Like the moon in the day
I love you for simply being you, no other reason needed
So, there will never be a reason to leave you.
Be sure to save and share these poems wherever you like!
I need you like the ocean needs the moon
You make my heart melt
Like an ice cube in the sun
That’s how I know
You’re the one
A soulmate isn’t someone who makes us whole
Or will put together the broken pieces
They are simply here to love us just the way we are
To love the parts of us we don’t even love in ourself
They are here to teach us unconditional love for ourselves
The way we do it for them
Not to put us back together again
I don’t ever think of myself as pretty
Yet you always make me feel beautiful
I am grateful, I have a wonderful life
I have this man by my side
When doesn’t cheat, who doesn’t lie
Who knows just how to treat me right
I am grateful
I have what some can only dream of
I like to turn my poems and quotes into a JPEG so they can be easily saved and shared wherever you like!
Have fun sharing them and don’t forget to tag me in them so I can see that you have enjoyed it enough to want to share it in your world.
Love and light
Kimberley
Soul Whispers To Your Heart – short poem
There are people who claim to be empaths because they match their energy and emotions with others.
True empaths can read people’s energy and emotions while staying grounded in their own.
I read peoples energy because its hard to block out
I can tell whether or not that energy matches their speech or body language
I am aware if someone is lying, whether their truth matches their heart
I look into someone’s eyes and read their soul through their true emotions
I may not know your life story but I know truth
I know what your soul whispers to your heart at night.
Soul Mates – Short Poem
A soul mate isn’t someone who makes us whole or who will put together the broken pieces
They are here to love us just the way we are
To love the parts of us we don’t even love in ourself
They are here to teach us unconditional love for ourselves, the way we do for them
Not to put us back together again
– Kimberley Bargache
Reading Someone by books – short quote
I read a lot about someone
By looking at their bookshelf.
But it’s hard to read them
If they do not own books
– Kimberley Bargache

Aussie Slang Print Series (mature audience only)
We Aussie’s are so creative with our words and sayings, that I went ahead and created a really FUN Aussie-Slang Line Of Prints to show off our humour…
I have created three new prints. The first one I want to share today with you is…. FUCK
Now the FUCK sayings are my absolute favourite, I throw at least a few around a day. Surely you’re the same?! 😂
(Purchase Info further down the page)
The second on the list is PISS
I hope the wording is as clear as the first one, but my PISS print words are a little smaller then the rest. seems to be the most versatile one of all of them, giving the most words used. I might need to edit the print down the track and get them all matching in size.
The last but not least is SHIT. A very fun word to throw around at any given time I say.
All Prints are A3 in size, unless another size is requested.
$20 Each, which includes FREE postage Australia Wide
Copy Right Symbol removed on purchased print.

Light – short quote/poem
You are the light in my darkness
But you are also the darkness
Within my light
– Kimberley Bargache 2021
Dream & fear – mini poem
I can now see that my biggest fear
Is actually my biggest dream
I now see that my biggest dream
Will always bring out my biggest fears
But it won’t stop me
No!
I won’t let the fear
control me.
This Is Me – Poem
I know I’m not perfect
I am kind of average
I don’t have an amazing figure
I sometimes eat ice cream out of the container
I’ll wear my pyjamas around the house
Where makeup isn’t my cover up
I love to sing and dance
Be a complete mess
I can be really silly at times
I’m over sensitive
I can be goofy, random and a little crazy
All at the same time
& sometimes I will say the wrong thing
I don’t pretend to be somebody I’m not
I am who I am
Whether you accept me or not
Imagine Dreaming – Poem
There is more to me than what you see
My mind screams creativity & this is just my reality
My mind runs wild with inspiration &
There’s just no limitation to my imagination
Be like a child, Change your mind a million times
Until the right one fits
Let your imagination run wild without limitations &
Just Let the world be your playground
No one will DREAM big for you but YOU
No one is going to Dream big for me but ME
So, don’t let the grass grow under your feet
If it’s right, grab it & when you get the chance to, hold it
Reading Energy – Poem
There are people that can read your energy & emotions
And there are people who claim to because they match their emotions with others.
I can read people’s energy and emotions while staying grounded in my own.
I read peoples energy because its harder to block out
I can tell whether or not that energy matches their speech or body language
I am aware if someone is lying, whether their truth matches their heart
I look into someone’s eyes and read their soul through their true emotions
I may not know your life story but I know truth
I know what your soul whispers to your heart at night.

MY HERO – Short Poem
For some, the hero is
The guy dressed up fighting the villains & saving the world
Or that one big sports star who just scored the goal.
For me though, it’s the person saving the life of an animal
The one who helps a stranger to their car
The parent on a low income who still gets their child off to excursions
The person working two jobs just to pay for themselves through Uni
The one who works overtime instead of having a social life to make their dream come true
The person who breaks past addiction and is fighting for a new start
The person who struggles with an illness or disability, and still manages to see the good in life
Or The one who see’s past the disability & sees them for who they truly are
The single parent doing both a mother and fathers job
The parent who encourages their child in their dream,
no matter how crazy it might seem
My hero is the person who lives life for themselves and doesn’t let others bring them down
But most of all, My Heroes are the people who don’t judge but accept everyone for who they are
Hit The Rocks – Short Poem
He dropped me like yesterday’s socks
Broke me apart like Lego blocks
I fell so hard, I hit the rocks
His really got my stomach in knots
– Kimberley Bargache ‘2020’
The darkest Thing – Short Poem
The darkest thing I’ve wrote about was the reality of my own life
The darkest things I’ve ever experienced has come from my mind
Kimberley Bargache (2017)
Darkness
When darkness falls
And hope is all but gone
Will I be strong enough
To pull through or
Will I be forever stuck
Hell is where I’d stay for eternity
Where everyday will feel the same
But it wont matter, I won’t know it
Just too bad I relive my worst day
Kimberley Bargache ‘2020’
IT’S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT YOU – POEM
At times I hate myself for loving you
And at times I feel you don’t deserve my love
You don’t kiss me
Hug me or touch me
Unless you want sex
I know this all too well
I’ve lived it all too long
I tell myself I won’t give in next time
But I do each and every time
But what I haven’t told you
Its not because I actually want sex
It’s the connection I crave
The closeness I don’t get any other time
Don’t say its not true
Or that I’m exaggerating
You dam well know it
I don’t think I should have to ask you
To support me when you know I need it most
But I did
I opened up to you
Told you how much I needed you
Which was the hardest thing to do
And you know what?
I got absolutely nothing
Here’s Mr. ‘I’ll put my cuddle cape on’
And gave me not even one
You didn’t support me when I needed you most
You weren’t the partner you should have been
I know you are going through your shit right now too
But come on, its supposed to go both ways here
It’s not always about you
A Mad Mum – POEM
I really get annoyed when you call me a mad mum
When you really don’t know what kind of day I’ve had
I’m an organised person, Truly I am
But my mornings are a whirlwind, regardless how hard I prep
If we swapped positions for even just one day
The mad mum phrase wouldn’t come to play
I wake up with the best intentions
But my eyes are glued together
My youngest has had me up half the night
I make coffee and start on their breakfast
Its only 6am but there’s peace in the house
It’s the best time to get anything done
So away I go getting a head start on the day.
While getting myself together I take a look in the mirror
I swear there weren’t this many greys yesterday!
Lunches are done fresh
But the kids still aren’t dressed
I go into the lounge room & find them captivated by the TV
The clothes still sit there folded nice and neat
TV goes off buts there’s still a constant barking of orders
To try and get everyone ready in time for school
Kids fighting over anything and everything
The noise level has reached fever pitch
I can’t find that permission slip
I know I filled out yesterday!
Off to school we go, now fighting for a parking spot
At times I wish my kids were older enough to do
The drop and go, oh hell where do I go?!
After the morning rush
I race around putting on loads of washing,
Making beds and cleaning up while writing out a grocery list
Out I go
Facing the fast pace shoppers
Rushing around everywhere,
Thinking they’re the only ones that have a place to be
Or is that just me?
I try to buy the best for our bodies
Showing the kids, the healthiest way to live
But its hard doing it on a budget
Racing it home to beat the heat
Unpack and finish up with no time to spare
All of a sudden
It’s time for school pick up.
Feel So Deeply – Poem
It’s more of a curse than a blessing
to feel things so deeply &
It hurts not having a damn person on this earth
who understands me
at times I get so tired of caring
I wish I could just say fuck it, fuck the world
I’m only looking after number one
but somehow my conscious kicks back in
and I am back to the start
Feeling so alone again
Drowning – Poem
I’ve been treading water for awhile now
but I’m starting to drown
don’t say you love anymore
if you honestly think you do indeed love me
maybe you need to look in the mirror and
ask yourself what you think love is
I’m sick of the excuses, apologies and
broken promises you dish out
I’m tired of making myself believe you will change
I’m tired of making myself believe you truly love me
I know better now
I was so busy being your anchor
I didn’t realise I was drowning

WRITING PROMPT for the week
This years goal was to get out of my rut of being so introverted. the past few years I have turned into a hermit crab and haven’t really socialised. I really feel that I am not so much introverted, but more someone that needs to find friends with the same interest as me. So, I decided to fill in as much blank space in my calendar as I could with local group and meetings I could attend, Anything and everything to do with creative writing and art.
This years has begun fantastic, It’s only March and I have attended many group meetings already and have met some wonderful local artist and writers.
this weeks writers group had focused on historical fiction. which was great as I have never done any kind of historical fiction writing before, and the writing prompts were fantastic!
I am really enjoying it and I am so glad to finally get out of my rut and connect with wonderful people.
Writing Prompt for the week is…
Describe a house to keep us guessing right up to the end: what type it is, what era it’s from etc.
have fun and comment your writing prompts below…
Until next week, love and peace
-Kimberley
I’m Learning To Paint on top of my daily writing and drawing… Here’s my first colour painting…
I had the chance to spend a few fantastic hours with a friend of mine at an art workshop with a local Hervey Bay Artist teaching us to paint. Shelly is such an incredible artist and I am really looking forward to spending each Friday creating art pieces.
For my first piece, I chose to work on is a turtle, however it isn’t a Mary River Turtle. I decided on a sea turtle since the back ground inspiration came from the skirt I wore that day.
Now, I know it’s different from my usual black and white pieces, So, I am happy, nervous and excited to share my painting journey with you. Learning to paint and use colours, Wow… It’s scary taking on another path but I must say this path is so much fun already.
Here’s my first step into my first ever colour painting…
Excited to see how this one turns out as the weeks go by…
Also I found out that Shelly has painted a huge Mary River Turtle Mural in the local area (Maryborough), So I shared my story about the Mary River Turtles and the book I have just finished writing (and just so happened, I had it on me).

The Final Draft of my children’s picture book completed!
I have just completed the final draft of my first children’s picture book called “The Bum Breathing Turtle” which will be a series on unique and forgotten animals of Australia.
I feel so happy and a complete mess at the same time. I have worked so hard on this project and now it’s time for the long hard process of finding an illustrator and going for the next step which means having having others to read and judge my baby! Scary but Exciting at the same time.
