When I am scared and doubt becomes my companion, I will remember the days of old. Those days when you were my only hope. When the wolves are gunning for my life, And bears are waiting to devour my carcass, I will remember the days you delivered me from the mouth of lions. When my…… Continue reading R E M E M B E R

Wrong
I was wrong,I was wrong for letting you into my world,I was wrong to think you needed the opportunity,Not caring so much about how my decision will impact me,But that is just me, my heart goes before my head.I was dead wrong,Wrong for teaching you all that I know,I shared my experiences with you hoping…… Continue reading Wrong
End of Life
Very soon it will be 2099, By which time we have faced all our fears, And be rid of inconsequential worry, Not because the world is free of its woes, But because you are too old to care, And there’s not much time left, But that’s okay because you’ve had a long fulfilling life, You’ve…… Continue reading End of Life

Good at being bad Bad for good reasons Bad at being good Good for bad reasons Nothing to loose Nothing to prove Makes no sense but these are some deep mantras. They like you now because they don’t consider you a competition. Ei when the switch flips, switch the game plan. Always be on your…… Continue reading No Sense
Beyond
Look beyond what your eyes can see. Stretch your vision, The possibilities are truly endless, But you compromise for the barest minimum, Look over the horizon, How far can you see? Your mind blocks your vision, Limiting you to just here and now. I wish you could try your mind’s eye, It sees beyond the…… Continue reading Beyond

Stand in the Rain
Stand still, Under the outcry of the thick, dark clouds. Get soaked by the heavenly downpour, Empty your thoughts for a second, In a minute, let yourself go. Cry your eyes out, Let the rain wash away your tears. Take a deep breathe. Inhale, exhale. Stand in the rain, Get soaked from head to toe.…… Continue reading Stand in the Rain
Light Weight
The effort was less, It didn’t require the usual aggression and heart palpitation, That feeling of having swallowed a rock, No weight at all. Subtle emotional connection Like the perfect piece to a puzzle Where your silence is so loud it makes sense You came with the sun, You put the sun in sunshine, That…… Continue reading Light Weight
Sueño
🖼️🖼️🖼️ Do I have your permission to smell the roses? Where tranquility knows no bounds, And there exists only a small time frame to take it all in, Just to make sure that if I don’t have the chance, If it doesn’t work out and all I’m left with are our marred memories, At least…… Continue reading Sueño
Warriors
The battle line is drawn, You are either an ally or a foe, As we draw out our battle axes and slay all those against us. The boundary lines are falling for us in pleasant places. Today the dragon falls, And all his seeds goes down with him, We take a stand to spare no-one…… Continue reading Warriors
