I choose to start again,

I choose to learn once more,

I’ll pick up the pieces, grain by grain,

And feel better than I ever have before.

I choose to understand,

What I have done wrong,

I’ll ask politely, not demand,

Something I have done all along.

I choose to correct,

When I’m on the verge of mistake,

You I promise to diligently protect,

Numerous chances on me I beg you to take.

I chose to feel...

More clutter accumulates than a landfill gathers rubbish—

Boxes of my great-grandfather’s papers stacked to the ceiling.

He interpreted God in a way that speaks to the deepest trenches of my soul.

I’ve forgotten the sound of my conscience,

Dead air and space buzzing in my empty head—

No walls for the acoustics to bounce off of.

Shrill static, microphone feedback deafening to the point of no retu...

Standing up here on this stand

having me rethink life all over again

From the moment I held you hand

i was thinking something

in my head

On your brirthday

seeing you drop a tear

because of all the love you felt near

we was by your side

every step of the way time

it’s sad to say that it have to be this way

Seeing you laying here

hurts me bad

so bad I wanna cry

but it’s still my las...

A door closing

A new page in the book

Quit your dozing

And take a look

A new chapter of life

Old decisions don’t matter

Cut out the past with a knife

What happened before was just a slice on the platter

Get ready for what’s ahead

Don’t stay on the past

Don’t write the book you’ve already read

And don’t go down the hill fast

Start something new

Try something scary

Begin something fresh

And it ...

When something comes to an inevitable close

That it will not matter anymore

That may end up forgotten by most

And why it is even there just to hurt, shame, or bore

You have to just remember

That what happens back then, no matter how atrocious or strange

That what you did yesterday or in September

Are just ways to make you learn how to change

Because life is packed with changes that serve as a s...

When I was a kid, I have many dreams. All of my thoughts were about how to make it happen. So, just like others, fighting for what I believed. Along the way, ups and downs, happy and sadness, brought even more joy to my daily life. I was hopeful for the future and confident that my dreams will become true.

All these wonderful things suddenly stopped as a unexpected event striked me. I was dia...

Is your depth perception skewed?

I wonder as I’m just looking at you.

This being one of my first glances and thoughts.

Maybe it’s just completely shot.

You see the surface and are aware.

Yet to you that’s all that’s really there.

The chest at the middle of the maze,

is something you search for many days.

Perhaps you lack intuition.

Or is my pessimism just a condition,

you wouldn’t want to...

In a world of shadows, where darkness did reside,

A soul emerged, battered, but with a flicker deep inside.

A rough childhood, a path filled with pain,

But a new beginning awaited, like a gentle rain.

As the years went by, this soul grew strong,

Learning to rise above the things that went wrong.

With every setback, they found the strength to cope,

Nurturing resilience, filling their heart with ho...

Everyday I wake up and the sun rotates the entire way around the Earth just to say hi to me

And on days I’m stricken with insomnia the moon stays up just to keep me company

The sky is a canvas of blue that changes colors each day to suit the paint in its canvas

Black at night to let the stars shimmer brilliantly like gemstone piercings on the velvet fabric of reality

Shades of every color to ...

If only I face the past

So this life of mine will last

If only I didn’t fear the ruin

Too many loose screws to screw in

Yet, here I am stuck on a ledge

Only way is back which I can’t kedge

If I stay here I go nowhere

If I leave the fears will ensnare

But I am already covered in scars

From my skin, my heart, emotional bars

So I turn, make my way back

Yes, I faced all that I lack

And you ...
