Premium Member Weighed Down
Sometimes I wonder why I can't move on From thoughts and feelings weighing down my mind. I wish I could cast off this awful weight So I can plan my future and be free. Perhaps I need to find another path A different trek so I can start again. With choices made that keep my mind at peace Instead of dread that...

DEVIL IN THE DARK
The sun shone in bewilderment, Scornfully it scorch, As Rose plead her fifth amendment, Her good nature made a strife, Lea smirk in disdain , Saith her world has ended. Twice fairer than Lea, In Lea heart lies deceit, She whispers in Rose ear, Come and sit, where Serpent hisses, I will smother thee with kisses, Honey lies secrets not known, In Lea lives the honey. Thrice shy,...

The poems I should've never had to write
The poems that weep with grief The one that bleeds a sadness unnoticed The ones that grieve the erasure of colour I wish I didn't have to write poems To convince you of our pain The one that stains every word on every page The ones that can't bleed out of existence The ones that break and...

Premium Member Risk And Reward
What is risk if not an invitation to break through our existing stagnation. We have given up our precious freedom and invited in a life of boredom. Could coincidences in life be clues? Are they hints, the direction we should choose? Should we unleash the habits of our past? Should we break them like chains, take risks at last? Our fear...

Speech on Memorial day
Value people when they have life Strangely, people understand lately Everything is loud and clear, yet blinds Still, people find it challenging, but why? honestly Wait, let’s unpack the fact. Dead people do not speak Neither response is to pick a fight They are calm and quiet Due to which they candlelight Celebrate the opponent's flight Words flow with compassion disguised The love poured out...

Premium Member Will I ever outgrow this?
What is this ridiculous obsession ~ perhaps a case of simple vanity? There's so much more to life than warped arrogant narcicism. I'm obviously more than these pesky extra pounds around my waist and few deep wrinkles on my face yet still it manages to monopolize my moods and daily thoughts. I seem to spend my time reminding mirror and self, much like repeating a mantra, that...

Premium Member We are all broken people new song version
We are all broken people You see the cooler kids, You really don't fit in... Try not to let your frustration show You don't know what to do, When other people look at you... Don't worry there's still time to grow Chorus We are all broken people... trying our best to fit in... We are all broken people... The time will come when we will win, Yes...

Premium Member VICTORY DESTINED
A person’s actual name Victory Surrounding story Struggles after another Each situation different from the other Going from one chapter onward Defeat moments felt a violent Thunderstorm It seemed like a detour to nowhere Darkness seemed to surround every situation Trapped in uncertainty Suddenly a turnaround Circumstances an onward approach Unstoppable Pressure lifted off There was a force of victory on a direct course No more darkness just brighter...

So much hate. Getting worse of late So many crying Dying Nation fighting nation, such a bloody duel Hate.
