The human complex is simple.

We want more, more, and more on top of our full-plate.

A vicious cycle of self-infatuation, self-pity,
and a lack of empathy,
creates ill-fate.

No human is perfect so why do we constantly try to drown in false preconceptions?

How can we not see its all just perspectives, wholly subjective?

The world can't seem to see past shiny things,
the loud and bright distractions,
yet stay on the search for the perfect life, inevitably full of imperfections.

When all you need is just above the glaring screen,
raise your eyes to true love, affection, and human connection.

Love is perfection in any complexion.
I chose,
Honesty, self respect and humility,
I changed,
The magic started happening,.
Foremost mum felt appreciated,
I was closer to dad and my siblings,
I cemented a strong bond with my friends,
They did not need excuses not to include me in their plans.
Even the school janitor,
gardener and the bus driver had love and respect for me.
I was on the side of the world where it was day,
Where the sun shone brightly,
Darkness was a past.

Darling, it's late night
Can you see my heart
screams for your eyes?
It's broken into pieces
in the silent hills fight!

Waiting for love is so painful
like dying in the ocean water,
Love makes our lives beautiful
when we're so happy together!

You've made my heart
with your sweet love,
Why do you break it
in a present moment?
Oh, I'm dying for that!

Come back to me my darling
I will make you happy forever,
The sun is rising in the morning
I'm still waiting for you, my dear!

we stood in the ashes

at the end of all things

silently,
we wrapped our fingers together

exchanging words without speech
a language of love, untranslatable to others

but we understood every note,
every arch and fall

the world around us had disappeared
yet here we were, survivors

withstanding the winter
of the universe

I faintly recall stepping out of my trance,
walking towards a man with a gun.
But I felt no fear saying “shoot me!”
Behind the gun man
a shadow within a light within a shadow.
I felt as if I could pass straight through.
When the bullet pass through me
I fell to the ground,
into the arms of the Earth Mother.
It was not yet my time.
Traveler Tim

This is actually a true story
happened to me this summer.
From top
to bottom

I find this
underneath the ice:

The Earth
is bi-polar

Remembering
how when we
were young,
we were so full
of life
and had
barely lived.
