Beautiful LadyWhat a beautiful lady standing in front of me,
I imagine what life would be.
Her beautiful smile, so big and so bright,
Makes me know that what I feel is right.
With every laugh and every tear,
Communication and understanding are clear.
All our fears seem to be put to rest,
Whenever she cuddles into my chest.
An everlasting friendship and love,
Makes...

The DecentDeep in melancholy fields I sit.
Heavy with the thought, I'm pinned in place
The past, present, future wrestle in silence
A hill of happiness rises in the distance—out of reach, yet inviting
I notice that both sides are longer than the apogee
My legs tremble, not from the height but from fear
Fear of short-lived joy
Each step echoes in the...

What doesn’tagree to disagree
At a young age, I started to realize that the only way to make my mom happy was to agree with her.?When you agree, everyone is happy… right??But no.?I was so busy thinking about keeping everyone else happy,?I forgot to ask myself what made me happy.
It wasn’t people.?Wasn’t drugs.?Wasn’t love.?And it damn...

Petitioning the divineMeticulously petitioning the Divine for renascence,
From the trepidation of my solipsistic ways.
A renascence into the sempiternal.
For a moment, I was indolent.
But mercy is not optional,
Love unconditional.
Seeking the Magnanimous One,
The Luminous One renders me numinous.
Promised blessings falling like raindrops,
Sheltered by anointing,
Like Daniel, before whom beasts capitulate,
Like Shadrach, untouched by flame,
Like Job faith unshaken by...

Stacking odds in your favour
being easygoing has its advantages
but a framing of how life is processed
helps establish rules of conduct
when relationships are in the making
clarify expectations
say what you mean
and mean what you say.
clarity of ideas
well expressed thoughts
precision of words
understanding what works
and what doesn’t ~
life not a crap shoot
improve the odds
take charge
be in the driver’s seat

Wave of LifeAs high as you go,
You must go just as low,
It's the wave flow of life,
Carrying you where you want to go.
Muscles won't grow,
If you don't show,
Drop your fear and go,
In the direction of your connection.
Change your perception,
Experience heaven,
Fall into another lesson,
It's a natural progression.

The Decline of HumanitySee the world around yourself,
See the people around you—
The scary face of people,
The crying face of children.
They are scared, lonely, and sad.
They fear the world.
See the fearless around the world.
The mothers are crying with children in their hands,
Praying for their children’s life,
While others are praying for their children’s future
To be bright.
People say, “This is the...

the possession of a vesselthe possession of a vessel
a cradle call
a steady fall
a empty cost
and all's lost
a candle care
a random share
a fullness last
and all's cast
a constant claim
a longing name
a least of more
and all's before
a costly care
a vessel rare
an emptied full
and all's pull
a cradle claim
a constant name
a candle fair

Why I Write
Why I Write
He asks why I write
And I say I must
Because the words, you see
Flow as easy as blood in my veins
The pen as natural as the air I breathe
Without it, I explain
The maze of my mind couldn't handle it
He asks how I write
And I say that my method cannot be taught
For...

Too Real To Be Fake
Passion lies not in fear towards cheer,
To conquer unknown gestures behind
Some rare laughter, but so insincere..
Those words, tongues twist around; disappear
Until tears grow no link to being blind.
Fear of long awaited hope shapes care,
Set to beat tricks, lust stages alright
With pure intentions to outsmart stare...
That could lay hold on twists playing fair,
Till laughter...

Wild Womeneveryone wants women to be a sunflower;
bright, tall, forever reaching for the sun.
but honey,
some of us are sprawling bushes filled with blackberries,
hidden by bramble.
some of us are mighty oaks,
strong, secure with no intention of giving way.
but the beautiful thing about blackberries is
if you make your way through the bramble,
and gently...
