When your embrace envelopes me,
I'm forever within your protection.
And there is no place I'd rather be
than between your arms of affection.

The bluebird buried inside my heart
flutters whenever you surround.
And through your sweet sincerity,
it forever sings Freedom's sound.
Inspired my favorite poem of Charles Bukowski.
And my bluebird is now a lovebird, thanks to a special someone.

A star is born and another fades
Their incandescence mocks any tears that cascade
Galaxies collide, their chaos resplendent,
Life is but a mere blip in their existence
Meteors crash and civilizations ebb and fail
What good are my tears
On a cosmic scale?
How ephemeral are my memories
Compared to all of eternity?
God made us best friends
because he knew our mom
wouldn't be able to handle
us if we were siblings.
❤️Cute saying I found. Very true, indeed! ❤️

Choose a side
that fits you best.
Because obviously the other side caused this fracking mess.
And the fools that left
and the fools that followed
in a deep swap of tyranny their oligarchs wallow..
This hegemonic presence is a fierce flame to keep.
Could’ve been, should’ve been careful of all the evil that they’ve heaped..
Traveler 🧳 Tim

So many distractions to keep us from paying attention to the elephant in the room, genocide wars in the Middle East.
Big bad Trump, crazy old Biden, but not a word of Gaza or Yemen on our wonderful news media.
That’s the power of western hegemony!

Your eyes were deep oceans.
Salted with pain.
Drained from our veins.
I have a fear of drowning in you.
Silent confessions were like opioids.
The feelings that consume my heart
are now bone deep.
My cells know.
Why my blood runs slow.
When you kiss my pale
pouty lips.  
Further I slip into
the waves of you.
When something impactful happens,
life changes color.
Priorities change.
You change.
You learn to call God’s name.

When losing a loved one or when a newborn enters your life or when you fall in love so deeply, what mattered before matters less.
Dreams are for today
Not tomorrow or any day
Don’t give up
Live for now
Give it your all
Sometimes we fall
Sometimes there’s
No one to call
Dreams big or small
Deserve to come true
Dreams, dreams

Immortality
Amidst the daisies,
all I could see,
was you.

Just us alone,
beneath blue sky.

You beside me, eyes closed,
wind tracing its fingers
through your hair,
bathed in sunlight,
your soft smile lingering.

Oh, how I envy them—
for giving you a peace
I can only dream of.
If only she could be....
