Smile Between the Screams
When a mishap takes place...
I ignored it, and pressed on.
What else to do?
Grace is not always polished.
But I can smile between the screams.
If I stumble, that's how we grow---
and if luck feels absurd,
I'll chuckle all the way under...
Because every problem has a resolution
in its own time.
No matter how long it will takes---
I'm sure it

Beauty of Real Life Love:
Oh my sweetheart!
Oh beauty!
Alizeh
Please give me Your heart.
Please hurry up.
When You entered.
Bells started ringing in my heart.
Listen to the commentary of the heart.
I fully guarantee that I love You.
I will constantly gaze at You.
And I won’t mend my ways.
A fountain of desires is erupting now.
A heart can’t be repaired.
And it doesn’t carry any warranty.
You

Our life a horror movie they played to us in real life
Our life a horror movie they played to us in real life
In horror films black people die first
We always make smart decisions
And yet they still manage to find a way to erase us even in film
They don't leave us alone
Not in life
Not in death
Not even in fiction
They do this to show

Real Life Rescue
Yesterday, while walking home,
I saw some people who
Were gazing past the river rail,
But why? I had no clue.
Two cops were there as well and so
I looked to where they leaned
And saw the body of a man;
That’s why they’d intervened.
More people gathered and I learned
That he was still alive.
He’d either jumped or fallen;
No one knew if

Real Life
We have got to make disciples. Fun nights and pizza nights are not going to sustain us. – Francis Chan
Breaking through, to a heart who needs to see,
Beyond the beauty, to the center of God’s grace.
Breaking through, for the One who hung on a tree,
Believing, in my soul, there are tears I must face.
Breaking through,

Leave of absence This is NOT a poem Just my real life
Hey all I know that I haven't been active on here for a while. I've been having some health issues lately that have been keeping me sidelined. That and trying to mentally prepare for a 7th major spinal fusion operation with revisional repairs to the current hardware already inside of my back. I'm about to

Death of a pundit
Sadly he died. Tennis court side' a critc of Novac
And proponent of fact checks, many years stating
Scores checking stats, opening doors grand slam
Tours. newsroom floors.' Maybe often in make-up?
Gave many a take-up. dead, now at the Davis cup
To be sure!.And good words from 'the champion'
Whose name. has been 'stamped upon' the cup just
Time and

Real Life Trolling
When you were paid to recite a script,
do it well, but don't overdo what you were paid to do.
When you hate someone for a pay, just do it,
but don't take it too seriously.
Remember, there were others who came before you
and there are others who will come after you.
Don't do their job

It Is Time To Live Together
What’s the reason of hate? To hide love?
All these feelings are real,
My mind manufactures only to be manipulated.
Afraid to love that’s why we hide behind “facts and language”?
If you’re tired of being lied to and you know it clap your hands.
if you’re tired of being fed a narrative to stop your thinking,
Can I get

Describing About Real Life
In real life, there's joy and pain,
A balance of sunshine and rain.
It's not always easy, but it's real,
A place where we laugh and sometimes feel.
There are moments of pure happiness,
When we feel we're blessed with success.
But then come the times that we fall,
And we wonder if we can stand at all.
It's in those moments that

'til There Was You In Real Life Pt 2
Yet it ended up out of our control
This was years & months & months & years ago
Right before Samhain in the weeks just prior to Yule
'Cause never have I ever fallen in love
Never my heart with false hope I'll ever bug
Its gotta be naturally & over time, you know
Never have I ever let someone see
