Allie Sab Poem
As our paths diverge from one
I envision us a setting sun
Resist the urge to run from night
Comforted only by your gleaming light
As the North Star would guide one home
Shines in my soul that I fear should roam
Your stars so bright, but out of reach
Lacking the skill of patience you teach
Yearning soley for the light of day
To keep my fears of doubt at bay
Swerve and crash on the road life has laid
In my rearview mirror your image fades
Terrified destiny will keep us apart
Worried for our survival as we are one heart
Always the darkest, just before dawn
In fate’s game of chess, played always as pawns
The coward’s way out would be to just leave
So you wear all our hope right on your sleeve
You say the world would never be so cruel
And will defend true love as a general rule
And remind me that I can’t let go
And that deep down we somehow know
Our love could never be star crossed
And time was all we ever lost
With daybreak that we will amend
As we realize together time ceases to end
And even through shouts of battle cries
We know our setting sun will rise
The hazardous road we did somehow escape
Able to watch our sunrise in awe, mouths agape
We walk together, apart, in line
And will forever intertwine

Allie Sab Poem
It seems the term present reality
Is not what its name suggests
Every individual in constant battle with themselves
What the world has so graciously given, contradicts and contests
Using, abusing, seeking whatever we can
To escape what we can never quite elude
Even still, left with brief moments of lucidity
We find as a most unwelcome interlude
Ironically, the very connection of life between mind, body, and soul
Leads only to want of breaking those binds
Pushing and pulling as hard as we can
Against our perceptions which cause these self induced confines
Putting as much distance between ourselves and what’s real
The consistent goal, the ultimate we strive to gain
Takes us past the furthest edges of oblivion
To the final leap, we still reluctantly refrain
This revolving subconscious desire to live
Is given momentum from fear of our own realities
Absent is the logic that should contradict this avid resistance
To the very proof of our existence in its entirety
So we must ask ourselves, if this be the will of the universe
That we are gifted with presence, but plagued by lack of full sincerity
Created with instinctive need to commit ourselves to this life
Created with a conflicting human nature, a cruel tricked fidelity
With these impossible parameters, we accept there’s no chance of success
Now able to understand the struggle in itself provides us true vitality

Allie Sab Poem
Brief moments allow for the full effect
Lacking ability and means to even begin to prepare
The only way to fight back is to reflect
And reminded with hearts, there comes never a spare
With said insights, still unable to disconnect
Such a seamless match, can be nothing but rare
Hard exteriors and guards put up even struggle to protect
And if cause becomes lost, we are all too aware
Rush of emotion, attempt to deflect
Each battle leaving conditions much worse for the wear
Choosing not to anticipate what is clear and should expect
Faith that neither exempt hinder the want to go anywhere
Remaining wits are vital, leave nothing to collect
Far from certain with an end unseen, blinded from glare
Found in vulnerable position seems incorrect
Blinded by love ceases all care
For choices none less than of the highest respect
Is to risk both entities being stripped bare
Experience showing how detrimental a hit so direct
Making it through a dream worth enough to dare
