Connectedness

I can feel the contractions in my heart,
Possibilities keep me from falling apart,
Open your emotions and leave open its eye,
The heart is about to birth new love,
Mother Nature blowing me kisses at night,
Real love has never felt this right,
Leaves falling from trees in jubilation,
The world saw your smile and went to gyration
The future looking bright, reality will never disease us,
A bond touched by the only hand of Jesus,
I have seen mankind worship the future memories that created us,
I silently asked them to give praise to the one above us.
Trying to figure out what this dream mean,
Then again I don’t want to spoil what could have been,
A real fantasy.

Demise In Disguise

2:AM and I got awoken,
By reality through a word spoken,
In conversation with death,
Telling me it's time I lost my breath,

There's a war going on internally,
Painful thoughts of people I'll leave behind, 
Yet they careless in my presence physically, 
If I do not wake would they mind?

Stuck in a zone with a millions voices,
Emotions confused by this solitary place, 
In the presence of familiar faces, 
Still consumed by the lack of choices,

Holding memories in my arms,
I fought illusions to victory, like brothers in arms.

The Mystery of Darkness and Light

We the ones who never sleep,we like stars 
painting the sky lighting up the world from dark 
thoughts,in this devils hour with my eyes naked 
and seeing everything thru the two sided 
mirror,watch sadly when breaths and souls leave 
various bodies,when the chimneys breathe and 
welcome a new day,the white smoke filling the 
empty sky,not only is this a signal for popes,but 
new lives showering this earth,in case I never 
wake,read these lines during the day knowing I 
never slept writing this,voices emerging from 
innocent wombs,yet in the morning some shall 
be covered by tombs,life and death,where do we 
go from this earth?

Pain Has No Limits

I feel so much weight from this world,
This pain embedded in my heart left untold,
Every breath I take to the devil I wish I sold,
But thy hand might my soul came to fold,
Yet memories remain scarred my life 
scared,looking in the enemies eyes and see how 
they glad,wish i was prepared for heaven and 
hell from my mothers silent womb,taking each 
day as it comes and nursing its wounds,
Attachments so profound lost I found us be 
without her guidance,house just bearing a 
political number no longer a home,the grass 
greener from the irrigation of everyday tears,
Time doesn't always heal old wounds but it 
procrastinates us from reunion with our loved 
ones,a family once so damn,let me wipe these 
tears from my paining smile,try living a day,a 
minute,a second without your current 
mother,sister,can u feel the void we try daily to fill 
or avoid,I surely miss my sister and how will I 
love again when all we get attached to leaves 
without saying goodbye,God exist but the agony 
persist too,by the time many realize,some will be 
celebrating or mourning my demise,its my reality

A Fallen Soul

I remember her 1st smile,
A rainbow couldn't be any beautiful,
I remember her 1st words,
Short yet meaningful,

Trying to find the write words to describe her,
But these tears are a perfect ink to convey what I think, though I still hear her voice and sense her presence, do you?
A soul met from eternity in this reality,
A loss condemning humanity into the wilderness of pain, emotions continuously finding themselves under the wheels of a gravy train,

Remembered by heaven so angels answered her ultimate call, opening agonizing sores as a reminder of how the good ones fall, it still looks like a dream, not how it seems, cannot believe that she's truly gone, do you?
Time doesn't always heal immortal wounds,
Though this is our path to part with this earth,when that last breath finally links with the original soil, don't you ever wonder if death ever sleeps?

Out of This World

How do you mock he who's chosen by the Gods?
Enslaved minds failing to acknowledge the reality before their eyes,
Cut from different cloths courage cooked from different pots,

Guess I died long ago I'm just living the minutes attached to this mortal flesh,
Breath anxious to part this earth,
You still are trying to piece these lines while I bring peace to your souls, spiritually.

My mind is not mortal; my thoughts are not of the living,
Way passed the human time zone, there I go like a star shot,
Left your mind twerking in confusion, a dust heading into forever on a mission

I Love U Well

There's no need for an essay for what I'm about 
to say,all you have to know is that in this love I 
want you stay,grow old with me as we witness 
not only your face but beautiful wrinkles grow 
young,be with you and see time become 
worthless and gates of immortality embrace our 
hearts in open arms,share kisses as our two 
souls communicate with heart beats,if this isn't 
true love I don't think true love exist anymore

A Note To Existence

A note to self
Be still and observe,
If you fail then rehearse,
A note to the heart
Keep your eyes open,
One wrong move you get broken,
A note to happiness,
Please swallow the misery,
If not, then the loneliness,
A note to death,
Kindly keep me alive,
If not on this earth, then in the next life,
Whatever it takes to keep this only breath,
A note to love, 
Do away with hate,
A note to the light,
Swallow the darkness,
A note to jealousy,
Get replaced by envy,
A note to mankind,
Keep you humanity.

Mystery Waters

Still waters whispering solutions,bridges these 
forgotten roots they carry this life we shan't 
marry,profound premonitions under the sea who 
dares to visit the mystery that lingers in thy 
shores,the silent noise of the waves bearing a 
choice but who is there to voice the concerns?
drowning in the lost island with the sharks we're 
gonna swim to find peace,resting on the brink of 
demise immortality lies in the codes ignored by 
man,eye see the future can yours sea?complex 
minutes raining on the doorsteps of humankind 
yet those seconds we rewind will we ever score 
clarity?their language so clear yet these ears we 
fail to utilize,the moments we shall memorize 
when we visit the cemetery of ignorance,water 
runs deep the face of humanity disappears 
without a trace,when it reappears the haze of life 
glows upon thy gaze,we are the soil yet life 
begins and ends under the deepest smiles of 
every river,sea where waterfalls,yet I'm confused 
still waters no solution,I just saw life calling my 
name in the middle of the sea,scary,I waved in 
acceptance now my ways are paved

Untitled

When that heart beats no more,
The pain comes quicker,but it doesn't last that 
long,when the eyes close suddenly,the future no 
longer can be seen,saying goodbye to this and 
saying hello to that world,smiles still so are 
words,making statements in silence but what 
remain are protests in your beloved agonizing 
hearts,minds trapped in rivers of tears,looking for 
salvation but these black cloud offers no 
solution,out of time,time flies,soul in a cemetery 
getting serenades from butterflies,loving so true 
hard to compare,heart so white rare no man 
could dare,a picture forever in our minds we 
stare,if humanity be a mistake then yours was no 
mistake,everyday toward you we race whilst this 
time we gaze,soon this earth we leave so every 
moment we embrace,memories we make,your 
dearly missed mom.
