Be you
Don’t change
You’re enough
It may not be me
But someone else
Will see
You
Be you
Don’t change
You’re enough
It may not be me
But someone else
Will love
You.

Used to be a touted genius
The lies were intravenous
Then I learned to speak
And the foundations creaked
My role in the system grew weak
So sorry, guess I was just a freak
Announced me as a inconvenience
When sleepless I submitted my thesis
Today when I stood at my balcony,I saw a little bird spending time with it's family , unknowing the weaker nest would not last long

I saw a child , studying hard,
under the melting candle light

I saw a youth , not having both hands,
dancing on street , to earn his living

I saw a woman , painting on a canvas by holding the brush,
in her mouth cause of the loss of both hands

but one thing was common in all of them,
they all wore a beautiful smile of satisfaction,
which reflects their heart..
Someone else is happy with less what we have...
dreaming big isn't an issue..but it is , if not working hard for it..

Afraid
 Aug 2021 Ryan

Like blood slowly
ballooning into a tiny orb
from a pin *****.

It simply swelled
and bulged…

As it clung precariously
upon the tip of my nib.

A slight tremble,
almost a hesitation -
seemingly afraid to take
the leap of faith.
Afraid to take the plunge,
only to wilfully break
the expanse of blank parchment.
Afraid to taint the whiteness
with the ruthlessness
of indelible black.

ode to
the object
where our gazes both come to land

ode to
the harmonies
that we both feel resonating inside us

ode to
the imaginings
that are running through both our minds

ode to that blessed space
in between--
our own little world
where it's just you and i
together, dancing, tumbling in our own dimension

i could stay here a while
