Why can’t I be whoever I want, wherever and whenever I want to be? Why can’t I live the dreams I painted ahead? Why does everything have to be so complicated, so intricate. Why can’t anything be the way it used to be? Or was it a lie? Was it all just a disguise to the true intentions ahead? Why do these bittersweet memories chase us down hauntingly? Why can’t anything be right? Why is all just a test? A mere experiment; to prove our faith? It is there; our faith. But those days they try to convince us, provoke us, break us, trying to prove there is none. But in the end, we all return to our source; our God, who is there watching, knowing, and casting mercy upon our souls. He is there, forgiving a person in his darkest periods, casting light when all is extinguished. We are here, we are now, but where are we? And where is now? Those shadows bind us to misery, forsake us on hope, extinguish the steps to true guidance, leave us shattered, and apart.
Everything we go through is there, written, and taken thought for, taken note for, watched and analyzed; to truly pay the price.
But again we wonder, and ponder; why? All thy dreams we built in our fragile thoughts, why? Is there not a path powerful enough to build them on?
We breathe, cry, and fall unto the forsaken darkness we refuse to fight more, on a desperate path we lose our light, our sense of direction. We seek help, plead for assistance, and pray to find that person; who will never leave us, never forsake us, who will be there when no one will, on the smile of his we live each day to see, for his benign talks we long to hear. The path we fell upon, he; that person will come to pick us off the ground again and again. That person will never fail us, will lift the vulnerable soul of ours to the road that will carry our dreams eternally, everyday will be a new beginning, his true pure intentions will never end, will never forsake us to life.
How many times have we lingered in this life to find that person? How many times have we asked; when? When will the time come? When all our lives change, when will all the suffering and tiredness truly conclude? We live each day, although it kills us; for that person, for that life we hoped, prayed, built all our desires on.
And we wait, we long, eternally for that time.
I never wanted to see what our end would be like,
For tragedy follows wherever I go.
We destroyed each other when we were together but there was nothing more fascinating than that destruction.
I soughted happiness
You yearned for change
We both met, and gave each other everything except for the things we actually wanted to obtain.
Every action that you perform has been etched into my brain, how you braid your hair, how you point out my mistakes, how you never tell me now how the day that was spent went by for you, HOW WE CONSTANTLY YELL AROUND WHILE CALLING EACH OTHER PATHETIC NAMES......
Well, since fate made us come together,
Let us stay
For the love has faded out but the bond still remains.

The Getaway
Making my get away I was walking fast.
Hiding the two bags of money in an old target shopping bag.
Walking with no witnesses as to which way I went.
It was all I could do not to break out and sprint.
As we now know it’s not safe to wear a hoodie
when you walk through a gated community.
I saw the volunteer guard before he saw me.
Briskly I ducked behind a large Oak tree,
I didn’t wanna windup D-O-A
in the middle of my get away.
This time of morning
there were no other prying eyes,
so, I quickly changed out of my bold disguise.
Slowing my pace, taking time to rub a little
dirt on my face.
Karma and luck were with me,
still no one gave chase.
Made it six blocks and on a corner.
Found a man looking out of place.
We made a traded and I give him a good deal.
For his card board sign that said
(Help I’m Homeless)
He got a white sweat suit and enough cash
to eat a good meal.
I give him another twenty
and said to have a good time.
Because for the rest of the day
this is corner is all mine.
So, I stand on this corner
with my help the homeless sign.
Hiding in plain sight, in the next poem.
I’ll tell you what happened to me that night.
Sitting alone in a serene seaside waiting for the beautiful scenery of sunset,
Tears starting to shed as the twilight finally crinkle the day as such a closet,
Darkness finally awning me and my heart screaming like nobody could ease the pain,
Pain that hurting me every single moment of my life…it is such a strain.
In everything I do, my faith, my affection and my compassion is for you alone,
Contentment bestowed upon us in such a glorious sanctuary of existence,
Laughter and delightfulness skirted us…just you and me living in our own,
But without knowing the twist of fate given to us, we are both sentenced.
We just woke up one day, you to her and me to him without turning back,
Both shackled to others arms with no more chance to hold our hands together,
Because in a wee moment, grieving shattered us and I am stuck,
You tried to pervert the chapter of our story, but seemingly it’s forever.
We both fight… we both tried to make things better for us but too late,
You keep on asking me why it happens all that you made….
But you just don’t know how I heartily questioned our fate….
Only God knows if the untold story meant nothing but to fade.
We get many chances
We take many stances
We love to create instances
We love to break circumstances.
We create delusions
We make confusions
We suspect interruptions
We interpret discussions.
The world seems too small
The topic seems too dull
The words face the fall
The temp increases in the hall.
We keep conversing
We don't plan meetings
We hide deep feelings
We surface them by joking.
People try to keep it real
We try to otherwise feel
We do make deals
But never our relation do we seal.
The wind calls out our name
The birds chirp to fame
Though it sounds outright lame
we never get tired of our games.
In the darkest and coldest world
one can find a flickering flame,
never allowed to shine brightly and widely
and break the macabre darkness;
nothing could escape from here,
from its torturous and squalid abyss...
where each demon has a frown of austerity:
ah, in this obscure confinement, I'd be afraid!
In the darkest and coldest world
the isolation is unbearably horrid;
bats constantly squeak to scare off owls that coo,
hunters hear their scary sound and speedily shoot;
nobody shows compassion for the ugly creatures
that only seek warm blood to feed their bellies!
In the darkest and coldest world
demons obey their master Lucifer,
he controls them with his menacing looks
and they dare not speak a rebellious word;
this Fallen Angel with extreme handsomeness
was thrown down to beautiful Earth
from Heaven until he would complete his wrath:
don't be prey to this vicious captor!
In the darkest and coldest world
nobody is free to breathe air and to rebel,
to plot and seek revenge in unescapable Hell;
and being doomed to obedience, there's no will
to compromise, any disorder is harshly punished
by a thousand lashes that make the flesh bleed!
We don’t just live we need to feel,
A hand to hold, a bond that’s real.
A place where broken parts can stay,
And not be judged or turned away.
Because this world can make you small,
Like you don’t matter much at all.
Like you’re just passing, just a face,
That never truly found its place.
We search for people, hearts that see,
The parts we hide, the parts we be.
The quiet wounds, the silent cries,
The truth we bury deep inside.
We want someone to say, “I know,
I see your pain, you don’t have to go.”
To sit with us when we fall apart,
Not fix just stay, and hold our heart.
Because belonging isn’t loud,
It’s not approval from a crowd.
It’s in the ones who choose to stay,
When you’ve got nothing left to say.
It’s in the silence, safe and warm,
A shelter in an inner storm.
A place where you don’t have to pretend,
Where you can break… and still be held again.
But what if you’ve never had that space?
Never felt seen, or known, or placed?
You learn to build a world alone,
To turn your emptiness to stone.
You laugh out loud, you play the part,
While quietly guarding your fragile heart.
You say “I’m fine,” you wear the mask,
Because connection feels too much to ask.
And still… the need is always there,
A silent hope someone will care.
That someone sees beyond your skin,
And gently reaches what’s within.
Because to belong is not to hide,
It’s being known and still not denied.
It’s being chosen, fully seen,
Not just the parts that fit in between.
So if you’ve ever felt alone,
Like this cold world was never home
Just know this truth, deep and strong:
We are all built…
to need to belong…..
Your words ripped her apart, you are beautiful but they judge her from afar, she walks around with a scarred heart. Her feelings of hating the world , her days of being tormented never led up. The feeling of abuse and abandonment has broken her heart. A knife through the back is how she felt living in the world, you are loved, but they keep on with their ugly words. The bridge she walks, they throw stones to knock her off, why am I so hated in the world?
A look into the mirror she wishes it shatters apart, her hate grow more for the world. The acts of bullying kills the heart, your ugly words wasn't funny at all.
Words can break you, makes you feel low about yourself. Your words can become a beast to somebody thoughts, the sword of the tongue can kill you. Where is the beauty of your words, like a Georgia peach, let your words be sweet to the world. Ugly words kills the heart.
Need a cuddle, are you available?
Promise not to linger too long
Perhaps seven or possibly eight hours
Maybe till the break of dawn
Enough time to satisfy this craving
That lingers day and night
Soon gonna wind up in the loony bin
If I can't taste your sweet delights
Need a cuddle, are you available?
To take me to heaven's door
Promise not to overstay my welcome
Till eternity, not a moment more
Must've done something, don't know what
To deserve your tender love
Can't think of what it could have been
But you've given my heart a shove
Succumbed to your delicate beauty
Many many years ago
The flame's stayed alive for all this time
Still making this old heart glow
Need a cuddle, are you available?
Promise not to linger too long
Maybe an eternity plus ten lifetimes
An eternity filled with song

Quoting: Veritia Venandi "Eternal light shines through darkest eclipse "
When the heart breaks down and darkness wraps the soul
like a shawl made of wool with web like little aching holes
We long for the break of dawn to arrive and for stars to leave behind
their itsy bitsy spark of light
When we have been devoured by deception
lied and left to be discarded ,
the only thing that blesses is the morning
with her absolvent light ;
For what crime does a heart do when all it does is love
to the point of no return,
what heart can stand the test of time once cracked in two?
It needs the tenacity of eternal light,
even through the darkest of eclipse,
it needs a fighting chance, to cleave the night.
