Rain drops of you everywhere,
Appearing and disappearing
From sky to earth
I cannot grab you but I feel your existence
I see your form but only understand you as formless
A hurricane of thoughts trap me,
Puddles of you flood my heart
Every step is one closer to you,
And the more I see through you,
The better I understand my essence
Because when I look into the mirror,
I see a road with no beginning or end
A perfect circle
Every memory of you unites inside of me
A revelation of wisdom that we have no difference
We are the same exact being
Now you are pregnant with my future,
My past is just a haunting ghost,
Melodic words you compose,
With a heart that emotes passion
Two beats per bar
An infinite number of bars
You and me: One whole note
Dissonance is the sound when we are alone
Together we resolve to consonance
We are fire and water as one
Finally united peacefully

You are equivalent to the four seasons:
Skin white like snow and Hair like winter's dark, long nights
Eyes like spring's clear blue sky
Hot like the summer's heatwaves
Your lips, hair, eyes, and skin resemble colorful autumn leaves

Words are powerful
Remember they are gateways to delusions
And are figments of the imagination
Sometimes used to hurt, sometimes used to heal
See the difference between love and hate,
Right and wrong
Nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes
Take this moment to reflect
Forget what has happened
Because what matters is what has not been
What will you do in your life so great?
Be the change you want to see take place
And do not forget time is in a race
You are the victim until you accept it won’t last forever
Your being will die never,
But your body will eventually vanish
Leave the world with a feeling of content,
While others see your life as a time well spent
Most of all remember that you do not have a life
YOU are Life

Unexpected
When the plague hit
The day you fell into my lap
At around 5 p.m.
It was only me and you
And it shows...
Traumatizing everything in its past
As we danced in the rain,
The conclusion came clear that
We had no reasons
What made you strong used itself against you
You are my favorite weakness,
A beautiful weakness
But this spring the butterfly
Does not come out of its cocoon
Instead I picked you up like a little string
We are what no scientist could ever justify
We knocked down buildings with our smiles
We had each other the way it should be
And now your church is burning down
Both divinely and mysteriously
Like all the words that found its way
From no where right into you
Making its way into eternity
We could not explain it to anyone
And why should we?
We found each other
Through what is called the core of one another
And I kept you in my back pocket
Through the times that we
Burned bridges with our charm
We learned what no history book could ever teach
Everything we touched turned to gold
Leaving a little permanence

Sometimes I feel that we should have never crossed
Other times, I feel like you're exactly what I need
It feels like we are always denying each other and looking for each other
Can it be possible that we hurt without one another? I do..
Do you feel the same as me?
Maybe it's just a feeling inside me
Or maybe it hurts because it is what is meant to be
It would not feel this lonely if it never was meant to be something

When you are in my presence
I smile
Because there is no yesterday or tomorrow
And when we meet
Rivers flow joyfully
Waterfalls gently pour
Angels sing
Hate finds love
Universes are born

Then I wonder:
If you could only see
How much I need you near me
How much we are the same
How much I feel your pain
How much I love you
How much I want you
And for you to want me
If only you could see
What is meant to be
What I am trying to reach
What is most important to me
If only you knew
When I need you the most,
Who I want close
Why it's you I chose
If only I knew
Where you are
If only you could feel
Where I keep you
My mind, heart, and soul still yearns for you
Come back home

Dreaming of a new place
Far away from where I reside
Dominated by love
A population of people
Living alongside God,
I see the very essence within us all
The only thing that has ever separated us
Is the suit we wear and we are that space
That is between you from me

People watch the speed of light
And listen to the race of sounds
Self-created pain rests in another dimension
The lands are shared by those who inhabit it

I rest my little body on a flower petal
Sink myself into pollen
Imagining the realization that peace and Heaven are merged in me
The cloud above me patiently lives its life
And will soon let me swallow it when I am thirsty

I am the salt of the earth; preserving my world from putrefaction
Though my failing health deteriorates my body
Imagination emerges and is more real than reality
