Sometimes we feel chained down
Locked in our own self imprisonment
Locked in sometimes the outer world
Sometimes you are too weak to stand
Too humble to climb
And just not strong enough to
Show success
But you'll get there
Just wait
Be patient
And let life
Present itself
If you are too predictable
You're boring
If you're too mysterious
You turn people off
Just be you
The world has alot of the world
And only
One individual
Who is you
Be
You!

Sometimes we just know
We know what makes the heart float
When everything seems like sinking water
It's a life line
A healthy line
The help you can search a life time for
But
Confidence
Confidence in self
Is not something you can be taught
It's felt through the heart
But getting there
Us like climbing the great Wall
Of china
It's weak in the knees
For life's greatest offering
It's feeling
Like you matter
But also going at a pace comfortable to you
People can't be pushed
We can be molded
But a mold is just mold
And it eventually comes crumbling down
But let me tell you
You'll run laps around your heart
But you've always known
Right from. The start!

Have patience with your friends
Your lovers
Your coworkers
Your aunt's
Your uncle's
Cousins
Strangers
People you meet on the street
People who set you up to meet
Patience
Is something
Worth learning
And
Understanding

I stopped watching television with
Sound
My ears still work
But sometimes my mind takes over
Senses are weird
I like to play with them
Try to make sense of a lack of sense
Do we learn stuff really for the thrill
Or do we learn in anticipation
Of what may or may not
Happen?
This
I haven't yet figured out

Learn to allow emotion to feed your soul
Not starve it !

You are always better
Than your worst enemy's best thought

Do as I say
Never as I do

No dying
You are important
Even when you feel
Unimportant

Monsters are scary in dreams
And nightmares
But you wanna know a secret
I learnt that monsters look mighty cute
Wearing underwear

The world would be so boring
If everything worked out perfectly
And sometimes
Things seem to happen
For a reason
Outside of your belief
But if you can discover it
That once red flag
Becomes a blessing
Not all help is clear
Concrete
Or direct
Sometimes the mirror effect
Just works

If it hurts your chest
You either love it
Whole heartedly
Or hate it
There's no in between
That grey area is
The waves of the future
To proceed
To not
To forgive
Or to
Move on

The mirror in you
Shines hope in me
But only when you
Acknowledge
What you were blind
To see

You wake up
Better than tomorrow
And fall asleep
Better than today

If you continuely throw
Glass at stone houses
The stone doesn't break
The glass gets tired

On good days it's easy to feel like you are on top of the world
But
On good days bad emotions can still slide in
Like anger or fear
Keeping them at bay is a skill for the wise
Which is not yet me I don't think

Things don't just mend themselves immediately
But with the right persistence
Trial can become success
With
Some persistence

A tone of someone's voice can speak volumes
But even tones can be changed
With tender, genuine , care!

My explanation of manipulation
Is simple
Cross the I and dot your tea

What are the chances
That if I let you stomp all over my parade
Let it rain on the daily
That you'd
Feel content
Even happy?

Even ants have feels
Remember that
As you stomp all over
Mother earth's
World
Your earth
My earth
The world's
Earth

A friend once asked me why I didn't use an agenda
My response
Agendas are like quicksand
And timing isn't concrete

Do not speak to mad people
They will run their mouth
Right out your door
Your neighborhood
And all the way to the next town
But if you get too carried away
You will see
That madness
Breeds inside
Of humanity.

Emotions are fluid
Time is fluid
Life is fluid
So basically
We are gel filled donuts
And I doughnut
Know
Who wouldn't
Like
Some dough
At the cost of being
A bit nutty ?

A humble man once said
"Hahaha"
And expected
Rebirth

A man, in a humble,
Said,
"Once you hahaha,
You have been reborn".

I wonder if
Emotionally stable people just
Sit on the throne in the mornings
Flushing out
Unwanted emotions
Filtering through
The daily
Bs

Time isn't a broken clock
Your ticker does feel broken
From time to time
You can't please everyone
Honesty really is the best policy
A job can really
Make or break you
Sleep isn't a waste of time
It's actually necessary
And quite therapeutic
Therapy is helpful
But only if your willing
A soft touch
With harsh words
Are not worth
Spilling milk over

At some point you will learn:
Sorry this person can no longer be reached

Be the sun in someone else's darkness

some say the moon is full of illusions
but i've come to learn that isnt all true
The sun
doesn't always fill you with kisses
he throws
darts and arrows
too

Try to catch me and I'll slip out of your palm
Like ice
Melting,
Try to breathe me in but your nostrils feel blocked
Try to find me online
And I'm invisible like
A ghost
Try to copy me
But I'm just a voice
childlike
Try to get near me
But I'm plastered on every
News paper
Radio and
Internet
Who am I?

It is easy to lose track of time
When you lose hope
Or interest
In even bothering with it

You can't be happy being someone you aren't
You can't replace them
You can't be them
It can be unhappy being you
Until you're clear what
You is truly you

I'm trying to be present
But I'm sorry
Sometimes presents
Don't come
Wrapped in a pretty
Bow!

I'm trying to believe
In so many different ways
Some messed up
Some straight up
But all I know is
Your what will always be your what
Hold onto that
Curiosity is innocence
And innocence is
Learning injustice
But don't forget that
Injustice
Is one sided
Single viewed
Yet still
Something brand new

Only the best survive
Was a tattoo I read on somebody
And I realized that
Surviving isn't an outside source
Survival comes from within

Dear tea
As I write this
I hope you're smiling thinking
**** do I taste good

It's creepy to think that in the very few steps you've taken day in and day out,
How many alive and then dead
once walking, now sleeping
Once took those  same very few steps
That we day out and day in
Often take for granted

Dreams can be so strange
And downright silly
We were cooking delicious spaghetti sauce
From the cheapest tomato paste you can find on the shelf
And I think the floor looked pretty snazzy in red
Slip sliding through the spillage
We were doing the real pre salsa
And then I blinked
And it was over

Grief stricken
quickly quickened
when I realize you
watching me
from where ever you are,
I still hurt
no word,
no thought,
no reason why,
but I've realized
that
in my eye
I have given
all I could
to try.

music is like laughter
running is the same as drugs
the most similarity to all
is that
all takes time to build up
happy vibes
but why not move
why not try and error
because the side of caution
is missing out on
happiness
potentially?
(endorphins)
if you trust scientists?

even in the most powerless of times
you have power
to either keep walking
or to walk
right away

masks screams a liar
and a liar
even if you arent caught in a lie
exactly
a hidden factor
is just as much guilt
to be on my way

im at a stand still,
im in a lost state,
im at a
should i move forward,
should i believe my intuition,
should i lie that its true?
should i forgive myself
for giving up on something
that i once wanted
to find out
what is new

her words can tickle your ears
her words tickle more of you than you wish you'd hear
but tell me this
without a twist

what have you told her?

your past dont define you,
but your @$$
might

off the walk of earth
I realized that
nick any negativity right in the ****

your worth is never measured in
likes
smiles
hugs
kisses
***
beauty
weight
energy
intelligence
e­mpathy
sympathy
friendliness
happiness
sadness
anger
or how approachable you are or arent
worth is measured in the same way a clock should be
thrown in the trash so you can start to live life the way you were meant to
through the eyes of you
and not through other peoples!

hold on to your opinion,
fight for your vote,
free yourself from self imprisonment,
imprison yourself in selfless things
just dont become selfish
swim with the tide
but dive where the crowd does not
Sleep when the mind wants you to
and live when the timing seems right

eat expectations for dinner,
gnaw on them like chicken bones,
remind yourself that life is probably going to be a chicken race
your head may fall off from time to time
but really
just enjoy the ride
enjoy the head on the grown
smile when your meant to frown
cry when your meant to be happy
sleep when you should be awoken
just be you
and be happy that you are you
and not anyone elses'
misconceived  view.

Icecream you are a sick disease
But here I am
With a spoon in my mouth,
Eating you up like a champ,
Licking every last drop in the bowl,
Believing I am the sickness
And you are the cure
You are the future
You stop time
Dead in its tracks
You reroute the train
Long after its detailed
So I stop and I think
Dr icecream
You are  hired !
