Fear Vs Hope By Nicholas Hayashi (Son of Nsorokan)

Fear burst destroying all,
Entire cities did fall,

Dressed as if thy where a ghost,
Destroys, leaving bodies piled, host upon host.

But there is resistance,
A useless, oh how useless resistance.

But it does do more, than fear's rash ignorance,
It has existed, as long as fear since

If there is no resistance,
Then there is no slaughter,
Like without ignorance,
Why have honor?

Overcome

At times I am overcome,
With hope and a torrent of anxiety which has a resting place in peace;
And the sweetest loves recognizes me now...
Only I can respond

What overcomes me is every form that my fear rises to, and suppresses
My impending past ignites all my deepest emotion while treating me to the 
sweetest love

Oddly Appealing

Romance and the richness of pain pose on the horizon before myself as a young 
girl
Become embedded in my own discourse;  I seek them and reject them, I cannot 
Know them.  
They are intangible
Rarely felt in the everyday

Inevitable aching and fear occupy my life of romance
I run, I climb, I walk faster then stand still
Romance is real, encouraged, glorified, exploited 
Longed to be felt in the everyday

Crazy

Crazy;  just
unyielding lust aflight which was restrained
Escaping love for life
It flirts isistently with the wind
of the breath that is,
my life

Hurling mysteries grand to be told to oneself,
Until overwhelming truths will cease to be part of your youth,

Feel past, present, future drives meshed so clear this very time,

Then you may see all that you know, all that you are, not very far

Lucky

Unravelling what was mine;
Not trying, or doing
but fiercely achieving it somewhere in time

Creating a life of memory
while contemplating memories saved by me

How do I realize my power?
How do I grow into myself?

Why am I so lucky?

All's Fair

until the moment I see you I'm never as sure as the time beforehand
and over and over again,  I cower
My strengths   involve certainties and convictions and 
feelings of power (maybe)

until the day I wake up sad I will never stop believing
the mornings are so hopeful
fresh, promising, and I LOVE myself in them

until I can anticipate you I don't know what to do
time is hurting me, the evenings are so low
I barely believe that this is eluding me,
would one deliberately be so slow

Marriage

Tell them more;
Sharing the strength of knowledge

Talk with me
Hold on to me
Keep me

When we shared I felt whole again

Talk with me
Stare into my life for all of our lives
and let us be who we are;
Please

Beside Myself

Remember 
The calm and serenity of Day by Day 
Remember all of it,

in case I don’t know what to do
where to go and how to feel together 
Like 
Resilient,strong, peaceful, alive and loving

Ignore and acknowledge 
 A  soft slight hum of unrest at the very edges of it all
Dreamy and unreal,
day by day
I am so far away
beside myself
