Versatile friendship and relationship

All my life, I witnessed many times,

People walked into my life,

Quickly we shared our soul and mind, 

Then, for one reason or another

They eventually disappeared.

Some abruptly and left me with wonder,

Some with excuses and left without a trace.

Others just not interested and gone for ever.

It took me almost one year,

To let BB goes without a closure.

The way JC come and leave,

Triggered me emotionally upset.

JN on the other hand,

This was the second time,

She repeatedly made false promises,

Despite I asked her to focus.

Make no mistakes nor errors.

She just did not listen,

Bad things kept on happened,

Led me to make decision, 

Our friendship must end. 

It was quite ashamed, 

The way the relationships came and went.

A Flower Torn

you lost your dignity in my eyes
the moment i sat down to write-
about your impudence and lies
that you threw at me and said goodbye

a coward in the skin of a roaring lion
threw stones at my door after setting it on fire,
allow me to brief you about the damage caused
karma will always follow you, or whatever path you stroll

skin in flames, tears and my pain
you caused it all while i was grieving someone's loss
thought you loved me like i was your favorite flower
but you tore me apart from petal to petal

your prayer to ascend for heaven, will always remain as a wish
years of torture that you have me hiding under love's disguise
it will come to hunt you just like your memories haunt my dreams
and in that moment i will know that was my revenge

Afterglow

We are light and noise when we are together,
A world of shared laughter, forgetting the weather.
Your presence is sunlight, a warm, golden glow,
Where the smiles on our faces have nowhere to go.

The jokes and the stories, the carefree embrace,
Leave no room for shadows or sorrow to trace.
For hours, we exist in a bright, vivid hue,
Two lives intersecting, feeling brand new.

But then comes the moment, the quiet goodbye,
A flicker of doubt in the back of my eye.
And as you turn homeward and fade from my sight,
The vibrant world dulls, losing all of its light.

The echo of laughter still rings in the air,
A ghost of the happiness we used to share.
The world grows more silent, the colors grow dim,
Like a lighthouse that flickers and fades at the rim.

The feeling unwinds like a thread wearing thin,
Leaving an absence where you once had been.
The memory is held, a comfort, a pain,
While waiting for the moment to be bright again.

you were almost my savior

i'm at the bottom of the ocean
forty feet down
stones tied to my feet
trapped
i'm drowning
air in my lungs
can't breathe
suffocating
vision going black
i feel you
your hands grab me
pulling my up
saving me
thirty feet down
there's hope
a sliver of it
i'm almost gone but
maybe we'll make it in time
twenty feet down
you're still holding on tightly
i trust you now
you'll bring me to the surface
be my savior
ten feet down
i'm relying fully on you
you're the one to save me
i feel safe
which is hard in the ocean
one foot down
so close
almost saved 
i could touch the air i crave so badly
if i tried hard enough
but i've already used all my energy
relief washes away the fear
the pain
safety is so close
and then
you let go 
after i finally trusted you,
you let me go
and back down i go.

November 8 and Eclipse

my elegy-
my muse covered in death
my wistful cry for help
innocence in her eyes
her last words and hug with a embracing smile

promises made and promises fade
8th of november, when moon turned red
the curse would lift but my roses turned black
the great eclipse returned and claimed another laugh
death of me inside
my lover absquatulated me by that time

lost two souls
on and by-
november 8 and another goodbye
two different years but same eclipse
cursed my sky, stole its shine


It ain't too late

It started off so well, so good,
Every language we spoke, understood.
Forever, we thought, it would last,
Yet somehow, those moments slipped past.

We carried happy souls inside,
But now we ride a different tide.
To make amends, it’s not too late,
Yet pride keeps tossing feelings like fate.

Yes, things aren’t well, yet we let them slide,
Waiting for truth, while we choose what to hide.
We listen to what we want to hear,
Even when the answers are crystal clear.

You’ve been hurt, called names, misunderstood,
Yet here you remain—resilient, and good.
I know I’ve done things I cannot undo,
Actions and words you never knew.

But not all that’s spoken tells the truth,
Some are lies, some shadows of youth.
As the saying goes, though friends may stay,
Not all hearts wish us well along the way.

Premium MemberThat Pause Between Summer and Autumn


School was out, setting her free in summer -
free to tell friends bye, be lonely and cry.
Tears would spill for a best friend of one year
who she had learned would in time forget her.
Most teens knew same place and faces through school.
Military brats do not live that truth.

Summer would decide her joy for school's start.
Parents choose suburbs, not an army base,
to be this year's school and friends starting place.
She hoped the house was in a neighborhood
with teens her same age to share summer skies,
then fall, winter and spring for her next page.

THE LIE

Tell me your secrets,
I’ll tell you mine.
Don’t tell me lies,
We’ll get along fine.
The past is behind us,
The present is now.
That we can be friends
Is amusing somehow.
So tell her your secret
And tell her your lie.
What she doesn’t know
Is the road to goodbye.

Cemetery

Get too close and i tend to push away
Come real close and ill be prayin that you stay 
ion fk with these hos
from them i breakaway
my phone look like a funeral
all these dead bod-ays
contact name the tombstone
revisit text like a grave
walk thru the cemetery alone
wish some of them stayed
where they are is unknown
some of them betrayed
while i was on mars no bruno
drift away with space
Me,Myself and uno
you wasn't the one for may
switch and change like seasons go
like the moon just a phase
romance filled with chemicals
in my heart you were laced
at a point intangible
now its toxic waste
view em all as expendable
few i loved their taste
some like a cannibal
its you that i crave...

Lillian

Some people leave in storms
With their last words being harshest

Some people don't have to say a thing
You know you've already lost them

In fact they intentionally say nothing
They go out like a ghost

I wish I could've stayed but it's not my fault
You chose what you stood against

You lost the war to evil

You stood against smoke and sharp words
But thats your armor now

You use it to shield what you know is right

I used to be the one you told everything to
Instead you hang out with the ones who laugh too loud

Too loud for it to have come from the heart
Instead it comes from what they're holding in their hand

You know I would have held the door for you
Even if I had to watch you walk out

But you've left me wondering in the night
Searching for you

You never respond

It's hard to stay with someone when you don't read their texts
Instead you read the last one that you sent

Over and over

It would be easy to let go if we had never been so close
But we were

If this is really goodbye
Please remember me

I would still fight for you

Even if it's behind closed doors you'll never enter

Until We Meet Again My Friend

A friend is like a shining star,

That shines both near and far,

Even when you acted bizarre,

They stay, just as they are.

They laughed with you during your bad days,

And help you grow in many ways,

They guided you through your tears,

And they guided you through your fears.

They knew all your thoughts and dreams,

They cheered you on through your craziest schemes,

Even when you wanted to be an astronaut,

They cheered you on, no matter what you sought.

This is not a goodbye, my friend,
 
Our journey has not reached its end,
 
So don’t let your shining soul cry,
 
Let’s take our dreams and shoot for the sky.

Honesty

stand still
remember those times
sincere friendly innocent chats
could have had a true real friendship 
drama

Premium MemberSo Long! - Apr 26

Your needs unmet and, too, mine equally
fulfilled,—I s’pose it’s best to leave this where
it stands.—what other course could feel as fair?
But deep disturbances in mon esprit,

increasingly violent unto me,
(as roaring winds and foaming omens) stir
tidal wave emotions without compare;—
breaking—in terrific fatality. 

My heart adrift,—stranded soon on your shore,—
beats weak, throbs sad sobs, sniffles back such tears
of torrential regret...—and for what? 
								                       you? 
Really, need I lament—this dullest score—
the abandon of your tempestuous fears?
No.,—if I capsize now, I never flew.—

The Journey of RCF: Tenure of Mercy

In a world of journeys,
A path we found,
A path woven with waves of emotions,
A path of laughter and tears.
RCF, a home of care we found.

RCF
A journey of change,
A journey of power,
A journey of unity,
A journey of voices,
A journey of love.
RCF, a journey that stretched us.

RCF
A journey where shyness turned to bravery,
A journey of learning,
A babe once, now grown in grace,
A journey of one becoming a multitude,
A journey of instability now firm and grounded.
RCF, where my heart belongs.

How do I say goodbye?
A journey engraved in my heart,
A journey that forged us into warriors,
A journey that taught us resilience.
RCF, a journey completed, strong and true.
In RCF, a family I found.

flirting with my friend

flirting with my friend
so lovely and radiant in the sun is she
her smile inspires my smile
Mom's Watchful Eye from Heaven keeps me respectful
my strong belief in being faithful keeps me smart and grounded
as we say our goodbyes, we say Sincerity Prayers for each other
she gives me a meaningful slap on my left arm, which makes Mom smile in Heaven
a female dove with a watchful eye lands on my left shoulder out of nowhere and pecks me repeatedly on my forehead
my friend, who i playfully flirted with, begins laughing uncontrollably 
she then says, 'uh huh, that's what your flirting behind gets'
i reply by saying 'WHAT ABOUT YOU?!?'
you answer by saying 'you have a Precious Blessing Beyond Worthy of Counting'
i wave a final goodbye with a rare smile and simply say 'Yes Mom'
