This feeling,
Is a whisper crawling out me.
An echo made by a stranger underneath my skin.
A tiny yearning that bubbles up,
as  a set of continuous chortles.
My heart beats,
and I give into phantasm.

The Crimson sun that never sets,
The moon that bathes and overthrows us with all of its beauty.
The ocean breeze and it's cool attempt,
The delicate,
fleeting,
goddess silhouette.

how do you let go
when your memories are still holding on
your mind knows whats best but the heart says otherwise

like surrendering to the ocean
floating carelessly, weightless
lost deep within her waves
i am terrified; and yet at peace
loving you feels much the same
the more i fight these feelings
the more i struggle amidst this storm  
the more i drown in my lungs
and you pull me under
but to be lost in your waters
submerged beneath your waves
and drowning in you
is the sweetest hallelujah
i have ever known

I hear your echos on the wind
sweet whisper in the air
The gentle touch sorrow’s pine
a longing to ensnare

Near slumber, my dreams of you
perhaps something you should know
I dream in vivid colors of multi hue
and relish in your glow

Sometimes I hear your laughter
or way you love to tease
or taunt me like the surging
of a deep and watery sea

Images float of mind on seashores
with sand beneath our feet
Or I’m lost within a daydream
in the bend and flow of wheat

And when I’m lost in passion
with my heart or soul exposed
where kisses float like butterflies
or blown petals of a rose

I dream a dream of you
enraptured by your hues
And hope to meet you there
when you are dreaming too

Some nights I spiral up
to my wormhole dreams
and stay
till morning light
people that have left
are there
some still here there too
travelling at the speed of time
that holds you present
to surprise me
with a childish kiss
but the lack of light
the room inhabited
I was distracted
being close to you
in the stillness of your sight
0919

I looked up at the mountains
And saw it was the same
When I expect it to move,
Wasn't it faith that should've moved it?

One day, I strolled again
And I was sad —
"For it's all the same,"
From the beginning of times
To the end of my eyes,
I keep asking myself,
"How long shall I wait?"

And then I heard a Voice like thunder,
"Move again!"
But that Voice became a whisper
As I yearn to listen for more.

So there, I ran over
I was searching for that small Voice —
Searching for its Source
Until I was caught off guard!
I was silenced
With how little things and even the simplest things
Have the greatest value
More than a lifetime!

As I opened my eyes,
It was a sea of clouds!
And I have never seen this even once!
I was mesmerized by Its radiance
The black thick sky was gone —
And it's as if I was about to lose my sight,
"It's a Hidden Glory!"

Even in my heart, my reasoning was ceased
With a moment of silence,
I know it was that Voice —
That same Voice from the very beginning
And it was Him who brought me here.

At times, I worry too much
With how the mountains will move —
Even with the time of the falling of the leaves.
Should I tell it to move?
Should I tell the birds to stop chirping?
Or should I be the one?
To move forward instead?

So here's the thing is:
A simple thing that will put everything aside
And will focus you on the Greatest upon the greats.
For while you seek that Voice,
You'll learn to stick with grace
Which is out of this world
And it will just unfold before you.

And your heart shall be stilled
With why most of the time
You need not actually understand everything —
And you're never required to worry.
You need to stop asking for answers
Even in the toughest circumstances.

This time, you are invited to rest in His love:
You are commanded to pursue!
You are enabled to walk!
You are anointed to speak!
You'll know when the time is right!
For the Spirit is there!
The Spirit is here!
The Spirit is your guide!

Who then shall bring down your walls?
Who shall stop you from declaring?
If you are commanded to prophesy...
God will light up even the darkest nights —
And yes, in that mountain; in those mountains,
You're gonna create an altar for God!
Coz every mountain is a mountain of God!
He shall deliver to you!
He is now delivering to you!!

And may it never be the same for you —
Your life shall never be the same
As you'll have that Encounter.

I tell you —
There are truths that this world does not know
And there are things you thought of as "truth".
But with that genuine heart and desperate cry,
You'll find out soon
What your soul is really searching for!
1 Kings 18:43-44
And he said to his servant, “Go up now, look toward the sea.” And he went up and looked and said, “There is nothing.” And he said, “Go again,” seven times. And at the seventh time he said, “Behold, a little cloud like a man's hand is rising from the sea.” And he said, “Go up, say to Ahab, ‘Prepare your chariot and go down, lest the rain stop you.’”

You are blessed not to see what’s ahead for you’ll surely be surprised by what God has prepared! You’ll trust more while you worry less — there is something even in one’s nothingness! Coz when God says “there is something,” He means He has enabled you! He has prepared everything and all you have to do is walk through it, experience and enter His rest and joy. To take God’s voice into your heart. Listen while he tells you something for the first time until the seventh or the hundred times. It’s for your own good! You will see it and God will make sure to you: He will see you through! Our God always win!

selling myself short, you
tell me that my accolades
are less than impressive.
she saw me nodding my head
in the city, as i downed a couple
of alcoholic beverages.
she told me that i should
practice sobriety, i told her every
-one has their thing, she told to
not act like i am a head in a crowd,
striving to be average. i told her no
one wants to be the odd one out,
even you are searching for that
balance.
