some days i think im getting better
i think the sun is shining brighter,
and the birds sing louder.

but days upon days go by,
and i realize things are still the same.
still the same sad, lonely, days that
ive had since i was young.

i do try to get better,
to think happier thoughts and
do happier things.

but the worst temptation that i have,
is to run back to it all.
the drugs, the alcohol, the ***.

the worst temptation will always be the death of you.

Flower of time, how precious is this jewel of mine.
Blooming at birth,  slowly withering at the same time.
This Flower of Time could die anytime, withering in time.
So please be careful with this moment in time.
I hope you are careful with this flower of time.
I hope you are spending it wisely, not wasting your time.
You only have this portion of time to live this life.
Please be careful with this Flower of Time. It might run out at any time.....
please handle time wisely! Spend your time wisely! It does not stop and you cannot take it back once you lose it! So please be wise in the spending of your time!

Don’t let the moon tell you goodbye
or the sun not greet you with a hello.
Don’t let yesterday fall too soon
and tomorrow never come.
Close your weary eyes,
but only to rest for a while.
Awake in the morning light
and remember each breath.
Don’t let it fade too fast.
Life’s too precious to say no more.
And though the pain is hidden far too well,
know it’s never too deep for someone to care.
Please stay.
I worte this after hearing about Kate ***** and finished it when the news of Anthony Bourdain hit. I was shocked and saddened. If you or anyone you know is struggling, please find help. A friend, a family member, a stranger on the suicide hotline... anyone. Know that you are not alone and please stay for tomorrow’s sunrise.

I release my words
    Into this universe
        Like a peace pigeon

They have no goals
No desire
      To change or teach
No targets
       To impact or reach

Just a message of love
       From my heart to yours

Smile, my beloved
       In the sweetness
            Of this moment
People ask me why i spend time write, and on my blog - how much traffic i get, how many likes...and as i was figuring out the answer -- these words showed up! :)

Maintain your tenacity
And do not fall apart
Keep your mind sharp
Right from the start
Knowledge is there
Just reach out and grab it
Continue to learn
That is the spirit

Something I've learned
Over the years
Is never to rush nature
She knows what shes doing-
     Shes been doing it longer than anyone else
And the scars we force ourselves to have
Will always hurt more
Than the ones She will give to us
So never force a life lesson
You'll be naturally taught them
When She believes you're ready
She will only give you the pain she knows you're capable of healing.

Closer
than a sister
or a brother

Knowing
understanding
empathizing

A certainty
you can count on them
no matter what
you are going through

you are loved
and valued
and would be missed

and you are there for them as well

they cry
and dry
your tears

they feel your pain

steadfast

they are a gift
from God.

Mood:
An overdrawn debit card with overdraft protection.
Giving.
Giving more than I have,
After giving all that I had,
And carrying on,
Not because I have to,
But because I love you.

A pleasant sound
Let the music touch your soul
Of a euphoric nature
The rhythm is taking control
Let it put the mind at ease
And relieve the stress
Peaceful and serene
In order for you to do your best

La La La
I sing and sing
As I frolic
In La La Land.

Hm Hm Hmm
I love to hum
As I sit
In La La Land.

Oh no no
I always say
As I look outside
At La La Land

It crashes down
Day after day
And fires burn the cities...
Welcome to my land.

As we grow, and learn, and learn
Our little La La Lands, from young years
Soon develop into hell.
And we see bad things

Because social media tells us more
Than we should know these days
And we all are filled with thoughts of terror, death, and evil
Untill we are corrupted with sin
