Traveling Haiku
Optimism fueled my hope Negativity depletes it My will fights destruction If misery wants company Then beat it It becomes my obstruction Initiating the assimilation Replacing my hopes with heart-raping obligations I retaliate with large amounts of pent-up rage Have I won? No... I've merely set the stage to become caged by what I refuse to be I'm tricked into falling towards the perilous seas of judgement, pride, and justification I watch my reflection in the sea believing that everything is alright with me ...but I'm no longer who I chose to be because I let the negativity infect me. Is it too late to be rid of this disease? With kindness, time,patience, and wisdom... We shall see.

Infection
This warm ache in my chest, Is it love or routine stress? I mask my worries with confidence To increase my self providence Yet distracted, I fill my consciousness with sweet joy and bliss that heals my mind for a brief moment whenever she is around and suddenly, my mind and heart are at war Shall I take the plunge which my affection pulls me towards? or abscond into the vast complication of my obligations? forever feeding my various ambitions? Ay! What a choice to choose!

Versus
I'm tested everyday, Tempted to throw away The sanity that's kept my mind at bay If inconveniences are shadows, then troubles are ink-blotted water trickling through the canals of my temporal lobes which causes me to follow any thoughts of failure instead of success better to wallow in bed then get dressed I almost forget that I am blessed. I aggress the trickling pain by staring skyward like a man seeking the opportunity to fly soaring above the problems that cloud the eyes

Resilience
As I lay on my bed with a cool fan blowing, I can almost see darkness, neither hands are showing. As I lay on my bed, I feel all of my worries flowing from my head to my feet and beyond my cotton sheets.

Beyond the Strife
A crown made of pride glittering in the sunlight Atop the head of a king making short strides His eyes are dark cameras A mouth full of daggers, His arms are long chains that make his subjects stagger. A king! A king! So majestic is he He is righteous and justly! Or so he thinks.. Ruling a broken kingdom Subjects protest wise decisions and are punished on false or petty crimes A king! A king! always kind and intelligent Forget that his actions are belligerent
