In all these rising in status
why do i feel so small
as if i know nothing
Like I'm just a beginner
in the toil of life
Why do i feel so empty
as i watch my accolades
on the wall.
Like i really don't deserve them
I'm just a mole in the moment of time
Living a life of illusions
on which doors upon doors opens
before me as if it's not real
I'm toiling in vain to meet up
something that doesn't exist
I know somehow it's not real
but i just can't stop or help myself
Running a race to meet up another day I can't seem to reach
A day that can't be fulfilled
or be satisfied
All are just empty
I feel like one fetching water
with a basket
And ending up right just where I started
Going round and round in circles
When will all these end
It looks like the end is the beginning
and the beginning is the end
I really don't know

It looks like
no one really
cared.
Everyone seems
not to care,
but only cared
about what they
expect from you.
Only give-me-
give-me attitude,
they offer.
Now i have
a rub off
from this
to-take-to-take
down world.
How did I
ever became so
lost without a
caring heart.
Hardened and
nonchalant.
I guessed it
was the effects
of how they
actually acted
towards me.
Neglected and belittled,
abandoned as
if I didn't exist.
Their attitude rubbed
off on me.
It will happen
to you when
you live amongst
them like I did.
He said, i
feel like a stranger
around the family.
They have no
human values or
respect, no dignity.
I don't know
or understand what
happened to us.
What has happened
to everyone,
he pined.
We are the
walking dead
without feeling.
There are no
place safe or
safe haven.
It's dog eat dog.
Surviving daily
is hard.
Mother's can't
feed their children.
The children roaming
the streets begging
for help and handouts.
The elites and the
rich and wealthy
are not reachable.
The influential and
the powerful refused
to come down
from their high
horses to help.
They are watching
from their windows.
Sometimes throwing
down crumbs from
their rooftops.
This is not good.
There must be
a drastic change,
he concluded.

Never mind about
whatever you have
heard,seen or
experienced in
the past because
i'm still going
to be here
waiting just for you.
All are deceptions
of optical
illusion within
your illusions.
You can never
see it occur
or actualized in
reality except
in your mind,
and all that
is important is
only felt in
your heart and
seen in your mind.
What if you
tell someone the
most important
thing in your
life and they
will never
believe you.
I understand that
you are not
yet in the
mood to confront
yourself.
Everything you have
got and done
you lose.
You are still
going to lose
even if you
didn't do anything,
you still lose.
It will keep
coming back to
you until you
get it done  
Communicate
sincerely with your
inner self to
let your spirit
emanate from the
darkness that
engulfed your being.
They are meddling
with your heart.
You know you
have a chance
to find your past.
You were dead
and was given
a new body,
recreated and
formed and
fashioned in a
new way.
Now you have
a soul that
can reason
and think rationally.
Everything they
told you was
a lie.
Listen they stole
your life.
But I'm going
to help you
end up somewhere
except the morgue,
if you are
willing to let
me help you.

A fresh start
for all of us
to love more,
do more,
to act more,
strategize more,
learn new ways
of doing things,
learn new trade,
acquire new skills,
upgrade yourselves,
migrate and relocate
to new environment,
move away from
things that didn't work,
invest in our growth,
add value to our lives,
help change our
priorities.
Explore new frontier
and horizon.
Another new dawn
emerged for another
beginning of
something uniquely
magnificently new.
A dream is born,
a desire to
accomplish something,
sprouts in the heart,
a promise comes true.
A vision manifests,
new arrangement of
something occurs.
The change we
always wanted
level up with us.
Aspirations are forged.
Challenges are confronted.
New goal begins
in earnest.
The culmination of
the past efforts
and projects begin
to yield results.
We want to
stay focused with
determination to get
things done.
We plan not
to fail or faint,
forget not to
plan or we faint.
New paths are
forged because we
are the pathfinders.
May God's love
unveiled by his
Spirit shield you,
protect and bless you.
May the road
arise to meet you,
may the wind
be behind you,
the rain wet your path,
may the wheel
of fortune turn
in your favour.
May grace and
the kindness of
individuals surround you.
May it's breast
satisfy you and
may you find
peace in its *****.
Embrace it with gladness,
it is yours to take.

This is a
remote place,
so far away
from people,
you can barely
see or hear
anything except
the water drops
from the rooftop
and the birds
chirping on the
trees outside,
the calmness and
solitude of this
place can almost
pierce your ears.
It is a dark
spooky place hidden
within the depths
of a cave
that i discovered
myself and my
hidden strength.
A scary revelation
of my true self
emanated from within.
In the darkest
corner of this
cold isolated lonely
room where monsters
tempts and Angels
dwells to save
and set free the lost
came the best of me.
Out of great
suffering and pain,
quite and far
away from the
prowling eyes of
humans,
strange things happens.
There within me,
the sense of self,
ignited by the
influence of the spirit,
the light shined.
I found a
place of peace,
my happy place.
And the darkness
in me disappeared
like a thief
in the Arabian
desert at night,
it flew away
like a caged bird
seized by an
old Arab princess.

Is it not
amazing and
truly beautiful
to you that
I am so
blessed to have

I love the

You are a
special gem,
valued and treasured.
Truly cherished.
A love to  
be desired always.
My darling dear.
Can anything be
as sweet and
lovely my dear
than this very
special moment
together with you now.
Let's not mind
if we reach
the shore or not.
This moment
right here and
right now is
truly more than enough.
I appreciate you,
special one.

I feel every
moment of you
in my heart.
I feel loved,
I feel your warmth,
I feel alive
because of
your presence.
I feel the
words you spoke
to me.
It's like a
quantum success,
a heartwave.
I can hear
you in my
head and my
heart feels you.
In the heart
where the heaven
and earth meets,
there you reside.
I carry you
in my heart
along with me
from the beginning,
and there i
can meet you,
there I can hug
and hold you
whenever you are
absent from me.
And from now on,
we will make
it better than it was.
