Ignatius Hosiana Dec 2016
My heart is a dark forgotten castle
with cracks and parasite on every muscle
my heart is a road seldom used
an old shoe stepped on and abused
it's a ruin beyond repair
with clambers and weeds of despair
in an impenetrable jungle beyond the tarry of passion
hidden from easy reach of touring emotion...
My heart is a tomb in a deserted sepulcher
with a rugged and crusty curvature
as a result of glaciation
from the ice of desolation...
my Heart's a boat that's forgotten
whose wood is all but rotten
Ignatius Hosiana Dec 2016
Sailing through the sky
sorting through the stars
for a familiar sigh
that could heal the scars
Ignatius Hosiana Dec 2016
She taught me what it meant to love
but never
how to fall out of love...
She showed me heaven
and never ever said
there was hell.

yes, I've seen heavy blankets of clouds cast above
thick clouds of despair, thicker than I deserve
Yes, I've been through such perilous storms
handed roses with less petals than thorns
Yes, I've walked journeys that never end
written a million letters and never send
yes, I've sunk in abysmal doldrums before
been through **** more impure than iron ore
but I never let that past be my definition
I let go of the anchors and put up the sail
a happy future as my motivation and destination
and no matter how many times I'll fail
I'll never stop trying to get there...
storms come, storms go
Ignatius Hosiana Dec 2016
There's always going to be a mountain and am always going to want to move it there's always going to be another ocean and am always going to dare to surf the waves there's always going to be storms with peals of thunder and I'll still crave to dance in the rain there's always going to be a very long road that am always going to try walking until the infinite end there's always going to be another question whose answer am going to trouble my mind attempting to find there's always going to be a high ground and am always going to attempt to make the lip unsure of the landing there's always going to be a sky and am always going to attempt to soar deep in the high there's always going to be another big tree that am always going to try to climb to the top I can't help it, am always going to try to try to move the world, as long as am given a lever and a ground on which to stand there's always going to be another race on this track of life and am always going to try and run it...

Maybe we don't have the things we desire and appreciate
because we don't desire and appreciate the things we have...
Ignatius Hosiana Dec 2016
You are a song I can't tire of hearing
a pain that's worth bearing
you are the road that I pray may never reach the end
you are a leaf I'll never let touch the ground
a peg to which am tightly bound
and without which I get lost, and in whose presence am found
you are sunshine, you are the big blue sky
you are the one person who makes my heart sing and my soul sigh
the hello that makes me hate goodbye
you are the eyes in which I see the man I crave to be
I owe my faith and persistence to thee
for in the race of life, you're my motivation
and that's why no matter the sharpness of every other bend
on this long road, I tell myself that forever's our destination
I'll keep going for the big dreams and every medal
so as to see you smile as beautiful as a blooming petal
I count myself lucky to have you in my life
or let me just say there would be no true life without you
