We talk about breakfast We talk about lunch We talk about dinner Sometimes "¿como estás?" Or "buongiorno" "obrigado" Even "aisiteru" We fight with each other even when we speak the same language We don't understand each other even when we share the same culture backgrounds We hurt each other even when we live under the same roof But most of the time, We help each other even if we don't know the one who is in need We offer comfort to each other even if the one who is suffering is not from our family We hold hands with each other even if there is a war going on between our countries Let's just forget about the differences we hold from each other Let's learn to embrace the diversities we have against each other Let's just make peace possible in this falling-apart world

Irrelevant to poetry
After midnight, after I'm fed up with your lie I pack up all my stuff and leave you behind The bound between us that used to be tight Now has become so heavy That it sinks to somewhere I cannot find And you keep on pretending everything is fine Keep on blowing your pipe But I am tired of all this disguise Because Deep down I know this gap has gone too wide I have to give up reaching for the other side Now, after midnight, You get down on your knees and cry Begging me not to resign From being your wife I say: Sorry, but I gotta fix up my mind.

After Midnight
love is red love is passion not seeing blood love is orange love is warmth not tasting sour love is yellow love is brightness nothing to do with gold love is green love is nature not longing for the advantage that you never own love is blue love is tranquility not the sobbing sadness love is purple love is the delicacy in your performing humanity not the superficial nobility you hold onto so tight only to shame nobody

Rainbow Is about LOVE
My skin is black and blue, a tender bruise that matches my nightly muse. Darkness silently expands beyond my understanding; So I sit and observe as my vision blurs to completely obscured, then finds an even darker universe.

growing up every thing was late parents waited until thirty-two to adopt the infant with the big blue eyes starring at them from then on it seems we were always late leaving our excuses in the offering plate or even earlier in the holy water it didn’t bother them they were used to it as they left excuses in their footprints on the way to school in the parking lot at soccer practice it was just normal thought nothing of it as they bought our christmas tree on christmas eve’s eve getting rid of it in exchange for when four-leaf clovers came good day easter savior april fools we were late again. but then again it’s only time. nowadays adulthood everything seems earlier happening before it should got pregnant before marriage had to install a dvd in the van due to us arriving earlier than planned always there to help set up help out clothes still damp from the dryer premature warnings (bzzz) putting our excuses in times/ doubts/ realities/ we're the future holding a late past whipped in the principal's office tardy slip-fearing b.y.o.b. but, the party was there and the bathrooms weren’t even cleaned we get our christmas tree while we still have left-over turkey for christ’s birthday new years resolutions already made before we unwrap gifts the only one out of our friends with kids and responsibilities no fooling we always get the worm we’re always early. but then again it’s only time.

late. early. same thing.
The most beautiful are the broken humans, because we learned how to bloom when our lives were completely in ruins. We still became stars when the sun burned out and every demon in our head filled us with doubt. Instead of praying, hoping someday the pain would go away, we created a light and never gave up the fight. This one is for people who went to sleep contemplating if they want to see tomorrow. We are the most beautiful because we learned to blossom in the eternal darkness called sorrow.

Beautiful is broken.
He was lake placid Her shadow fell on water, The lake is ablaze.

You bought an one way ticket when you were young You thought it'd be a good trip You thought you'd never be homesick Everything out there is fresh Everything out there is sparkling Even the moon looks bigger All is fine Until one day You find the food back home was made for your stomach the water back home tasted sweeter the air back home suited your lung perfectly And you starts to realize the moon back home were actually brighter So you buy an one way ticket again to come home
