Be Happy Anyway

Accept what is in ur play
Don't be grey
Keep going on the ray
Have your say
No pressure to stay
Do not let your mind sway
Follow your way
Be happy anyway

I Love You Anyway

I held on all that time, believing your lie,
Thinking you were using me deep down inside,
When I questioned things you reassured me and made me believe,
That this whole time you were in love with me,
Just one question after I sacrificed my whole life,
And the response was I don't know if I want to be with

We Name Them Anyway

We name them anyway—
in a world unraveling, thread by thread—
we name them Hope, and Rain,
and Wildflower,
as if language alone could save them.

We teach them to walk
on melting ground,
to laugh in the shadow of sirens,
to draw suns on walls
as forests burn beyond the glass.

We hold them close,
not because we believe the world will be kind—
but because

I came anyway

I heard you were gone
from someone who didn’t know
what you once meant to me.

They said it flat,
like it was weather.
“He passed last week.”
And suddenly,
the air changed.

I didn’t ask for details.
I just drove.
Quiet.
Alone.
Like we always said we never would be.

At the service,
they spoke of your laugh.
Your stubbornness.
The way you always showed up for people.
And I smiled,
because

It Didn’t Matter Anyway….

Liberation is knowing what is,
Ignorance is not.

What is, is always simply what is,
So liberation and ignorance 
Are both ephemeral phenomena;
Mere waves of perception
On the surface of vastness.

I'LL KEEP SINGING ANYWAY

Every echo that falls from your shadowed line,
Or silence that hums like a hymn half-said
Ah, I hear… sorrow speaks through you
So yes, I know —You're the song my soul has bled

Each branch that bows where the breeze once played,
Or the stillness where sunlight used to stay
Ah, I see… beauty fades without you
So yes, I know

Premium MemberFlowers are so maudlin, anyway

     Possibilities bloom before my very eyes
       of gifts that will my lovely wife surprise ...

     Imagine her delight when on Mother’s Day

Premium MemberWe Rise Anyway

Lift the chin, my friend.
Let the dawn break through
whatever yesterday left behind.
The path was never meant
to be clean or quiet—
it’s blood,
and gravel,
and stubborn breath.

But you’re not walking it alone.
We carry one another
in sideways glances,
in cracked smiles,
in hands we didn’t expect
to hold us.

In the eyes around you,
look again—
there’s fire there,
flickering low,
waiting for someone
to believe in it.

Speak

Trust Him Anyway You Can't loose

When you think God spoke to you.
Write down what he said to do.
Do you feel peace in your heart?
If so that's where you need to start.
To verify the voice you've heard.
Does it line up with God's word?
Now you have two things to compare.
The thought you have. The word that's there.
Does it say to you "Be

Rot Slow, Rise Anyway

The bed is soft, familiar.
Not comfort, not really, just known.
A sinking, a settling,
the weight of existing pressing down,
but not enough to break me.

The dishes stack in the sink,
a quiet monument to days slipping by.
My phone buzzes, I don’t check.
The world is moving, but I am not.
Not yet.

And still - 
something in my chest tightens,
not in

Premium MemberDo It Anyway

in a world where goodness may seem pointless
where kindness may seem but a drop in the sea
karma is a concept that won't get old
for peace of mind it is the master key

The universe listened anyway

The universe listened anyway.

Just like the rest ,yesterday was not too lit,
I was there in my balcony,the cool and calm breeze welcoming and swinging my soul ,
While hugging my knees I sit.
It was a ritual on the days I felt high or low,
The wind would bring the best essence  of the flowers from someone's

Whatever, this was dumb anyway

Always messing up
When I feel so upset
Going all in way too hard
To lose another stupid bet

Losing all my hard earned money
Yet again I am robbed blind
At this point it’s all quite funny
I have no more strength to mind

Bet it all on my bad choices
I will give in to my voices
I’ll sit back and have a

Anyway

Some gloom took her from me.
Or was it hate?
Or did it rest somewhere between the two?
She's gone is what matters.


The cars pass anyway.
The wind blows anyway.
That new apartment block gets built anyway.
The grass grows anyway and is cut down and grows and is cut down and grows and is cut down and grows and is

Whose life it is anyway

Whose life it is anyway
Because
He is always smoking
A joint
He doesn't care
About his life
It is very sad
Because he
Doesn't know that
A joint is very
Addictive
And slowly he is
Killing himself
Every single day
Because he smokes
A joint every day
Yes he will
Die with cancer
Also, he doesn't
Know that life
Is also very precious
Yes I am his father
I made him in my
Image
Then I placed him
Here
