 Jan 2017 Got Guanxi
April
You might make me feel safe
You might make feel content

but I deserve better,
so much better

I gave you my attention,
I thought of you past midnight in the dark of my room,

and now you've gone back on your word
and all I can think is how ignorant I really am

but

stop it
because I'm not ignorant
I can't let you be the reason I see myself so negatively

you're the one who gave up

I might be left in the dust

but just you wait, I'm going to find the best

Yesterday I was clever
So I wanted change the world
Today I am wise
So I am changing myself
Federico García Lorca

می شنوی
صدای ام را
ما در جهان
جا مانده ایم
که باقی
به تماشای ما
نشسته اند

Inside every person you know,
There is a person you don’t know
It took a lifetime to become    
The person that you see  so..
. I wish I had a way to know    
Just how far you had to go
To find a way
   For you to be    
Even slightly    
Satisfied with the strange reality  
That turned out....       .
...Once you got past
A little bit of the doubt      
Finding a way..to..Look...past    
The strange shadow
That I've always cast        
And see that...there may be      
someone
Worth a second chance / a second glance      
You might even have had to go so far
As to create a whole new
                Overview!                        
So I have to applaud you
For the hard times
That you've gotten through    
Putting up...with the likes of me ! 
It wasn't like I tried ....
...to be
A thorn in your side  
  I've just been different
Than all the others that you raised        
So we banged our heads together  
As we .......   
Tried to understand each other      
I hope I never neglected to show you
That I always respected you..
...For all the things that you believe    
I  just   had   to   go.  on a search
And it took me away from the church    
But it never took me away  
...so far
That I couldn't or wouldn't
Hear the word

"I never denied
That  JESUS CHRIST is my savior'
  Or that he died ... 
...For the likes of me ! "     
That is to the credit of the love
That you've shared    
Even when I made it hard
And you were scared
That I'd end up scarred    
By the evils of the world    
I want you to know
That wherever I go
Whatever I do      
All the good
That resides in the.. likes of me  
Comes from the love that you
And the LORD above    
Have always shared with...  
...the likes of me
      So I want you to know
That it's takin a lifetime
To become the person that you see    
Although I don't fit into any mold
I know that you've always had...  
...good or bad  
Unwavering faith in me    
So I'll do my best to join you    
In that city on the hill    
Following your path
Avoiding GODS wrath
By always  
Doing HIS will.
My eyes are tasting flavor my hands are roaming around
Your beauty has spread on the land my love is to surround
You my beloved from all sides to understand to get astound
After this magical experience I am no where on the ground

My sweetheart let me embrace you with all strength, power
Let us be together on every hillock mountain and every tower
Drizzling rain of passion will kiss you and come like a shower
Your petals open in jubilation like that of a pink rose flower

I am yours and you are mine in all paths of life to just travel
Let me take you drop by drop like wine from the full bottle
I love you I love you like a chaste and pure good sweet angel
I worship you like a deity and my love you are like temple

..And although I am content as I write this,
I have found it hard to write through my happiness. For days, months, years, I continued to harvest this pain. Self inflicted; sometimes, one might say, that I was to blame - inflicting pain on my name whenever it rang. Or maybe sometimes, the world, I found a little too aggressive to tame. Trying to remain centered in my frame while all of these picture frames around this place starting taking center stage on a new terrain, or an old one: focal points of the past. Look at all that I have passed. So many leaking words, screaming to be heard but never last; perhaps only pressed into the pages I turned and still turn, that may be the only things I know assured. But I choose not to see my life as depicted so blurred. My vision is not perfect; but a vision when you know that you're worth it can create a mind that is certain on what's pertinent. I am a servant to myself. Health, wealth, and all combined. yet they still wish me hell while they stand beside the wishing well. Oh well. What am I to do? When the hopes of tomorrow might not ever become true...but to become so succumbed into thinking that we are inevitably doomed would have my mind, heart, and the very force that never holds them apart, separated in two. And so I choose. I choose when I speak, I choose when to heal.And it's like writing my pains allowed them to stand in an image a little more real, whereas my absence to the page represents my ultimate appeal: applying a happiness where words just can't seem to peel back the genuine feel. I guess I am healed. I thank you for guiding me here and allowing me to hear. I'll be near.
I've lived for a million seconds
But there's a second i remember the most
I remember even the smell of the place
It's when your past approached
When our eyes meet again
After once in a blue moon

There are warmth in your eyes
That makes me stay to stare
We didn't say a word but,
That was the longest and sweetest
One second in my life
