On  a vibrant sunny morning
I woke up to a loud knock
Calling out "It's me ,son"..
trying to write a haiku here...let me know how you feel about it..Haiku is a  short Japanese form of poetry consisting of 3 lines...

"I'll leave you if you don't stop loving me"
Never thought ill hear this from someone
Thats what she said to me last night
I never thought loving someone
Would hurt them...
Guys like me never get the girl we want
She wants me to forget her..move on
Cause she feels she incapable of loving anyone in life
She doesnt want me to wait or hope
Cause she wont be happy if im not happy
I dont blame her...im not angry at her for choosing to be alone
Im just confused as to what hurts more...
To love her or not to love her
This is a real life example which happened to me..hope you get to learn something from it..drop down your comments as to what you feel

You hope you're doing the right thing by becoming a better person ,but you don't realize you're also becoming a different person..
People may not appreciate what you've become now,react badly...but eventually..its for your own good..and they will see it..sooner or later

We've all been told that we struggle to survive..
But nobody told us to survive the struggle..
You can't battle with life when life itself is the fight..
The world got no empathy, aint no spark of light..
They say once you started something, it needs your effort to stop..
But i cant stop writing..it helps me express myself
I believe rhymes don't matter if the concept doesn't offer a solution or get to your head..
Culture is passed down from generation to generation,
Only to be cut down in half.
We're all victims of duality,always afraid of what people might think...
Nobody cares about the crooks,
Unless its something valuable they took..
I hope you get the mental picture im trying to paint in your mind..
I acquire knowledge by cognition, not through ******* up
To summarise, life is change
It aint about getting famous or being rich or chasing beautiful honey's..
But its about making the biggest change in one's own life
Trying to inspire some peeps in here..hope you like this one..this one's straight from my heart..no facade..just simply pouring out...

She is a woman
She's not everything you want her to be
Respect is not to be demanded
It should come naturally
Their intelligence is spiced with beauty
Filled with virtues of integrity and patience

You may think she's fragile but she can knock you down anytime
The universe is within her...she can make her own decisions
She's not an object for you to satisfy your lust with..
You can feel warmth and affection from her smile

I hope things were better now,
Where everyone is happy and contented
Where women dont have to carry pepper sprays in their handbags everytime they go out..
Just for one day...try to imagine yourself in their shoes

So, lets be thankful for all the women present in our lives
WHo have touched and inspired us
Believed in us and taught us to be resilient
Cause we men can never survive without them in our lives
Its International Women's Day today and i'd like to dedicate a piece for all the women from this planet who have been through a lot of struggles and pain..faced humiliation but have fought hard to survive in this godforsaken world...

Love is the answer...
But what's the use when you dont know the question..

Its not something you can find in Nicholas Sparks' novels..
It has a pivotal role in the survival of mankind..
It cant be seen or touched..but it can make you feel something
Something which fills in you what you were missing your whole life
It can change people who have been incarcerated by evil
Its a beautiful impact you leave behind after your demise
Let's all join together to share this gift
Not just with your closed ones,but those who have hurt you too
Embrace it fella..Breathe
