I wanna see the world
through your eyes
take me on an adventure
lately, I haven't gone out much
but I'm willing to quench
my thirst
willing to jump through obstacles
like it's the Olympics
the only game that id want to play
is if I'm going to win
rocky mountains
pacific ocean
take me on a destination
I want to kiss your lips
over the sand dunes
I want to taste your skin
in a world-class museum
so why don't you take me
book me a flight
where we sleep all-day
and up all night
the kind of adventure
the one I would write
if only I could see into your eyes
I throw my poems to the Internet
My posts into the night

My postcards in the mail
My mind into the fright

I am obsessed with names
And curious coincidence

I know oh! mystic John
Let us rise and go hence
One sip turns into multiple drinks
Time has past, I don’t know when this happened last
Drowning in the bottle
Down to the last drop
I don’t even know if I can stop
It takes away the stress but yet causes a mess
One bottle
Two bottles
T H R E E   BO    TT    LE S
ITS A  B  L  U  R
I can’t even talk
All I do is slur
Is this me or a monster inside
Like the worm in the tequila bottle
Dying inside
Drowning inside
This bottle(s) of my tears
Numbing the pain of my fears
I can’t control or so I say
Drinking
A
W

My days...
I crave a kiss that feels as
if you’re trying to bite my soul
Palestine is fading away
As greed takes over today
Such a beautiful country
As the sun shines bright today
No more happiness and joy today
But we sit and watch Palestine fade away
We sit in silence every day
Not allowed to speak about the
Truth happening in Palestine every day
No more land and no more food
There happiness and joy taken away
Children can't even play
It's just sadness every day in Palestine
And I sit and watch as little children weep every day
It's Just bombs away
Killing an other Palestinian today.
Free Palestine ❤️

Eclipse in the sky
Abolished wonders
Yet the stars fly
Out of the universe
And into your mind
you contain the universe and all its occupants
I know ..
The thoughts you have of the future
I know ..
The lack of clarity and sense of frustration
I know..

That God had some part in this
I know..
That man had made this
I know..

We will come through this
I know..
We will prevail
I know.
Empathy in 2020

Why do you
always
let me hear
your melody
If you never
let me read
the lyrics?
Why do you
always
come to me
If you never
stay?
I want to dive
but you keep me
floating
upon the surface.

The brighter the light,
the darker the shadow.

The brighter the smile,
the darker the mind.
It's the brightest smiles that hide the darkest minds
