Me and YouHope,
Spreads throughout my thoughts.
I can't even finish my sentence,
Without thinking of what could be,
Between you and me.
Even if it’s just my fantasy—
My own delusions,
My own interpretations,
I can’t help but want more—
Yet a the same time,
I can’t help but love our present.
Everytime you make me laugh.
Your glances,
Hoping for a reaction,
From a silly side note,
Someone...

DO YOU REALLY MISS YOURSELF?did you wake today as someone else
the one who hides what she can't mend?
who once ran wild toward open doors
but now just breaks and learns to bend?
do you remember how it felt
to dream without a second guess?
before the noise & before the guilt
before survival meant this mess?
when did you trade your rest for rush
your joy...

To FlyTo be like a bird and fly and fly
To touch the edge of the azure sky
to fly together, to swoop and soar
To visit the clouds forever more.
To dance with the wind, a pirouette
bask midst a gold and crimson sunset
Fly over mountains crested with snow
Finding wonder-filled places to go
Fly over meadows blazing with bloom
To ruffle wildflowers'...

Giving Up Their MotherhoodIf mothers didn't bear children,
laughter would turn into monotony:
can we imagine mankind's misery?
No infant would cry when they are hungry,
no noisy kids screaming and having fun!
Wouldn't God be mad at us,
calling us evil, selfish beings?
Wouldn't empty cribs not be rocked
while a sweet lullaby is not whispered?
A mother's duty is to bear healthy children,
God gave his...

The First One That Comes AlongWhy is that we rely on some illogical dream,
rather than being realistic people?
I can change all that with a notion
however silly and foolish it may seem
to some leaving equation undone
the first one that comes along can be mine!
Sitting alone in a meadow of purple and blue iris,
non sure which color to paint passing faces;
I look...

find some happiness that wayChildren who grow up, who will one day become
men,
Do not forget to live, live the moment,
One day you will not scare the boars,
Nor to warthog,
You will have to change to be happy,
Animals have a sixth sense,
Horses, donkeys, camels have a sixth sense,
Chickens, cats, swallows,
You’ll have to get up early, to understand,
You’ll have to get...

7 WONDERS OF THE WORLDI wonder if death knows he happened
Or if love learnt she's perfect
Or if men know they are nothing
And for women something about being satisfied
If God knows I am hurting
Or life, because I am never happy
I wonder for what being alive is...

What Happiness HidesWe laugh loud so no one hears the sobs in our silence.
We dance like freedom lives in us,
When sometimes we feel like prisoners of our own mind.
We post smiles, quotes, and fire emojis,
While hiding battles we’re too tired to explain.
We show the highlight reel—
But the bloopers hurt more than the world knows.
I’ve seen bright eyes...

Sheer Magic of Happiness“Happiness is contagious. It can be sparked by one single happy man, making it spread into many, as a small amount of yeast ferments large quantities of dough" – By Poet
Happiness is seeing beauty in simple things.
It is drinking nectar from the wellsprings of our heart
We sense it as we listen to the sweet warbling...

In this lonely old roomI drift off to sleep,
As I walk to the beach,
I see the glow of the moon.
What a beautiful sight,
When I dream in this lonely old room.
This room of white,
Not a soul nearby,
Only nurses who roam the halls.
This room of white,
Almost like a tomb.
Oh, my dreams,
The place I yearn for,
My true love is Italy.
Yet I...

Decide To Be Happy NowHappiness is the way
Enjoy every moment now
Stop waiting to finish school
Start school, wait to lose $100
Make $100, when you have a job
Until you get married
Until Friday night
Until Sunday morning
Waiting on a new car
Until the bond is paid in full
Until spring, until summer
Until fall, until winter
Until the fifteenth or thirteenth...
