27 I'm Ani.
Denying your existence, Would be telling the flowers of the sun To only look for growth under the moon For there’s no way a sunflower 🌻 Could live without the sun’s pattern But, If at each night the flowers awake, They will always face east Secretly anticipating the suns return For the warmth of its rays, Is what truly comforts them when they sleep Oh my love, Denying you, Would be like separating the ocean With concrete walls The seven seas would never cross And only know one or two shores But, With each wave that comes, And the erosion that sets in, They carry an energy of a thousand lifetimes Proving there’s nothing that could stop the flow of a life, With you.

The Denial
I’ve been living in fear these past months. I’ve been treading slowly, Trying to figure out what’s next Trying to navigate a world of possibilities As the Fear of the Unknown creeps in. As I take a step into the direction of a beautiful future, I question whether or not I deserve it I question If I’m on the right path, And if I belong there But most importantly, If I’m with the right people I Fear Loneliness. As I continue to find my community and form relationships, I fear this feeling will be the bane of my existence And nothing in this world could amount To filling this hole, that’s inside of me Alienation taints me as I see the clock moving I Fear Time. It’s our greatest enemy. I often wonder if my life will be pressured by it I wonder if time will somehow make me less authentic With my approach with life by Forcing myself to live it at its “fullest” And this somehow results to the fear of, Greed. Not enough Time to see through all the possibilities You see, I’m selfish. I want to know every outcome of every choice And how it’ll benefit me I Fear that I’ll be too busy trying to fill up my needs And ignoring what’s in front of me Fear that my humbleness is gone and the authenticity fades away By the time I close my eyes, for eternity. I fear, Death. What legacy will be left behind? Will my perseverance be recognized By having these fears, push me to be a better person, Or how I let them control my essence By not allowing myself to be in the moment I fear Regret. To live a life always questioning, Feeling lonely, a mental slave to my head Letting time pass me by, Only to be feign and egocentric. Regretting this life and moving on To the next With a bigger hole than the last one. A restless soul that goes into this cycle, Each hole bigger than the last life, Eventually joining the abyss.

I want a Garden of Flowers. I want Tulips and Roses that bleed red When the rain hits Their petals fall on the ground Just in time for the wind to come, And make them dance I want the birds and the bees To make the most out of my fertile seeds I want my flower’s honey to be the sweetest, When it’s in your mouth I want Daisies and Lavenders That blossom under the sun With roots so deep, they touch the earth’s crust I want Mother Nature to call me, Her daughter Yes, I want a garden of flowers I want Asters and Chrysanthemums That sprout when everything is gone I want the children to marble At how they blossom Where wedding planners come to my door Or mankind comes to pluck off their stems, To give to their lover After making them cry Yes, I want my florals To be a reason for someone to smile I want Poppies that grow On my empire of dirt And after everything has departed, A new cycle has started.

Garden of Flowers
If you were a God, I would build a church for you I'd preach of your existence And tell everyone, to search for you And If you were a Prophet, I would follow you into the sea like Moses Because if you were a Religion, The whole world would stop to listen, To the melodies I'd sing You would be my Salvation I would build a shrine for you And only want to hear whatever you say I would kneel down and Pray, that you love me, the same way.

If you were
You say I’m yours And that our beating hearts are meant to be But the truth is, they’re not I belong to nobody. My existence is not for you It’s for the Seven Seas, And for the Moon that glows My heart isn’t meant for a single soul It’s for the Earth to consume And for the Sun to warm My decaying bones won’t be for you to woe They’ll be for the wind to blow, And for the Trees to grow.

I can only imagine the pain you have All the signs and yet, Everyone was oblivious We pushed you so far away, That there was no time for mending Or goodbyes I’m sure the thought of suicide Has crossed your mind, More than a thousand times. So sickening to think… I tried so hard to help you In the many ways one could. I never judged you…from the bottom of my heart, I love you. I love a poor soul that is Frail, Hurt, Alone A soul that no Hospital could fix. A soul I watch grow, A soul that lost their way home So sickening to think… That we sleep peacefully at night Knowing you’re maybe fine, maybe safe So sickening to think… Your birthday passed, And no one blinked While I was thinking of you all day And hoped you got cake So sickening to think… I can’t sleep at night. Flashbacks of your face.

Lost Souls (Addict)
We want ourselves, When it comes to life or love But when it comes to Death, You are all I Want.

Want
You left a piece of yourself in my front door step. Where a loquat tree grows, where my tears fell. And you see, Rain came just in time to wash a bit of us away. It washed away all of you, that was left inside of me. You left a piece of yourself in Harbor Drive A restaurant that doesn’t exist anymore And I thank God, That worked out just fine. There’s a lot of you in the streets of Downtown Where Gaslamp’s trolley lead to your house Where we ran all the way to Seaport Village, To the house across Grape Street From where you first said, you Loved me And there’s a piece of you in every corner Of my neighborhood, your neighborhood I can’t go back to Chula Vista without wincing every time I pass your exit In fact I can still see your bedroom every time I close my eyes. No I can never do that. You are all over From where the beach stretched, To the mountains of Cowles To where the borderline finished, To where we never got a chance to explore together. You left a piece of yourself in me. Where a flower still lies within. You left a piece of yourself In my front doorstep. Where my tears fell on a loquat tree And the rain came just in time to wash us away Only to grow what I couldn’t with you. March 4, 2019.

You Left
When a woman says she loves you, She is inviting you to her world Where not only her flesh & bones But her everlasting soul, Blossoms from purity & hope Whether it be woman to man, Or woman to woman, She has chosen to give you a chance A chance in the sense that her sun, Will provide the energy you need to function & her air Becomes your oxygen As You slowly become her universe When a woman falls for you, She makes her body your temple Decorated with whatever you please Because her mindset is only focused on one thing and that is, Making sure your happy and content When she lets you in her walls, She is only expecting the essence of love & the undivided attention Of another human being Who can offer her more then just words When a woman says she loves you, She is offering her soul & everything her heart has left.

Walls
My soil is intertwined With hope and hatred There are either two sides- No In the middle Where the Truth is denied And people go back to their bubbles of politics & emotions Where we are all divided By labels, ignorance & arrogance People sing in choruses Not willing to find common ground Just wanting to prove whose wrong -No Trying to win & dominate The cultural world & ethics Where honesty is shamed And everyone asks themselves, How did this happen? 11/14/16
