small letters for your naive soul
because no matter how big and meaningful words could be
words can't seem to fit in your small uncaring heart
Richard Frank Jul 2019
I sat quietly in the room with faint light
Like the light that once lit my soul
I gaze upon the world outside the window
Nothing but the sight of rain was on my sight

Splashes of water that washes away the will
Draining every last bit of my motivation
The liquid that pours over my lifeless heart
And vanquishes the remaining fire in my eyes

But the rain would soon fade
Hoping that passion would one day come back
Perhaps, the light will once again show its colors?
Only the cosmos would know

I left my words in a hidden valley
Suppressed and forgotten
Contained inside my head
They were unable to find their way out

I left it there and wandered somewhere far away
I desired something and longed for it
After pursuing it, seemingly I got lost
Not knowing where I wanted to go

I turned back, I found myself back in that valley
Back in that valley where my words lie
It was the words that I hold dearly and cherish thoroughly
What I was looking for was here all along
Back to writing poems :)

I saw a storm far beyond the horizon
Its wrath annihilates everything I hold dear
I realized that it's uncontrollable,
Beyond man's control
But I fret not,
Even if the sun doesn't rise
Because the storm is what I seek truly
Inevitable but enduring pain
The lightning is what I dance with

Labor has finally come to an end
The world has finally drained me
Engulfing myself with comfort
On this delightful, elegant bed
Remaining stationary,
I refused to be in motion
This bed has loved me more than anyone did
After some time, tranquility conquered my mind
And then, my day has come to rest
Richard Frank Feb 2019
I wake up every day,
Sunken into a miserable life
I weep over my sorrowful fate
Light shines upon me,
But instead of hope,
I live life like I'm a bare shadow
Living so pointlessly
I can't be sure if I'm me anymore
I was born sadistic in this world
But the world is slightly sadistic than me
Richard Frank Jan 2019
As the sun navigates the sky
Ages will pass and time will come by
When the stars were shining, I was growing up
Responsibilities had settled in
And before I knew it,
I forgot about the stars
