Am the sky above and the yonder in space,
a vast universe that won't fit in your case
Am a glowing moon upon your night
you see your shadow beneath my light
Am the Ocean that's deep and vast
I can't be kept away in your pocket
yet again am that tiny seed when buried am cast
to suffocate into blooming Flora that makes life worth it
Am that lonely road you're bound to follow
and find yourself, you're lost, am your campus
am company when you're riding solo
a poignant piece of poetry lying upon a tattered canvas
Am a pregnant cloud hovering the endless skies,
but I'll soon come pouring in soothing patters of rain
cause I know that underneath your gentle sighs
there's a great deal of untold pain...
in your darkest hour, am the last speck of light,
the deem power of faith left in your torch
Am the sun of expectations when you need a ray of hope in sight
and the shed when in need of an escape from scotch
am the flapping sail in perilous currents above  the boat
and no matter the strength of waves I'll keep you afloat...
in the hurricane of your existence, I am the calm
for I am who I am
am air, invisible like nowhere yet anywhere and everywhere
that even when you're deafened by despair
am the wind you hear silently whispering, "I ****** care"!

**I am that and this,
I am love and peace

Maybe am crazy to think you won't break my heart
to think you came around to rectify that
to curve my world to round from the flat
maybe am crazy to once again trust my gut.

you're exactly what I've been searching for
the one to weave to back the shreds they tore
a passion that heals even my core
one like none that came before


or maybe this ends here, tonight
before it's touched by frail petals of light
like in fright a bird takes to flight
albeit it feels so right.

*can we survive the moment's sigh?
How'll we know without giving it a try?

You always had the keys... you did, but you chose the chains because something in them was beautiful. You always knew the destination was close, but you chose the painful journey, you chose the adventure. You could have chosen the obvious, but obvious wasn't meant for you, you were born to be different, to let go of the good for the greater good. You could have had heaven, but there was an Angel in Hell you had to set free, no matter the price.

Ask them with answers
stigmatize with anthers
shout loud in silence
**** them with kindness
suffocate them with air
give hope of despair
straighten with a bend
start with the end.
*Give what you take
fix with a break
curse to bless
and fight in
peace

My naked eyes
hardly see beyond her luscious chest
I doubt after I venture her thighs**
we'll still keep abreast.

So
I promised to wait for you
& it was fairytales & fables
*but I broke my promise
cause it's easier waiting tables
Ignatius Hosiana Oct 2017
Now
You're just somebody
that I used to know*
but I love this
stranger even more
