Be who you are
Not what others want you to be
Your life is not theirs
It is yours ….so live it authentically!
Colorful is beauty
Colorless is ugly
Apparently
Truth is colorless
No one believes it
Easily

There is a hungry rich man
There is a content poor man
The difference is in the being
The experience is within the being
Paddling over lies
In search of truth's pond to find
My oars were broken!

Life is....
Life is to live,
To make something of ourselves if we can.
Then to relinquish it all to the past.
As to live is also to die.
Come lucid death ready I am you to embrace if you agree my life with the truth to trade!

Don't think you have owned the place
You'll leave it in the time race
Other people will come
And live in your slum
So always have a smiling face
All's been said and done
race of life's been run
loved ones long gone
It's clear now to you
why Faith's alone true
~ sing Hallelu
Death, my friends' lives claims,
Unending grief in my heart-
Souls' jubilation!

I am not that person
I was not that person
I may never be that person
for
that person is me
unfree
hiding inside an old
gutted-out tree
trunk
The truth cannot change
Even when you choose to ignore it
You need courage to challenge the norm
A person pretending to sleep cannot be awakened
Which dreams you'll live for,
Which verity you'll live in,
Whose side you'll live by,
Questions how you'll live and die
Answered by the state of heart
Throughout our lives we strive for achieving the ideal missing thus unfortunately the real.

I am myself an idea
Nothing more
Writing fading words
From the deep before
Upon illusions page
The stories score
A life imagined
Nothing more.
Backstage it’s utter chaos
Curtains rise and perfection unfolds on cue
Much like behind closed doors

Every action resounds as an echo,
on its ripple you dance
to the music of life,
not composed by you.
The truth dissipates unrealized
within obdurate ego.
Truth
is true like birth
truth
is true like death
born all in between
not truths
bundles of lies
handled in life
with truths to carry
of trues and lies
what is to worry
The twilight of horrendous death infuses the dawn of glorious life!*

*For something to stay alive something else has to die.
Our yesterday; reality
Our today; possibility
Our tomorrow; dream
Plant tomorrow's dream
Into yesterday's fertile soil
And harvest today!

My soul, a ripe fruit resembles
Ready to fall from the tree of life
Onto the ground of eternity
Ending thus my existence strife!

It’s black or white,
it’s wrong or right.
Look left, look right,
they both have a
valid answer. Who
am I to be the task
master? It ain’t cut
and dry, my oh my,
many answers “why”
