What can I do when I battle within thy self?
Looking for things around me
To satisfy, to quench my hollow dark soul.
Twirling and twisting with everything that I see
To know which suits me best
As a brand new tiara for every event.
This tiara never stays, never glows
But I tend to not give it up
Despite its disparity.
Laughs and cheers often mask me,
Thy self, pouring in for more
From the best of multitude.
I believe in something that the eyes can't see
Which I see through your eyes
By the yearning of a touch
Missed by everyone,
Even yourself.
I search outside my own
It satisfies my flesh and bone,
Where will my insides go hunting?
When all that's left behind
Is a withered feather from my last wing?
My think box is a small little abode
Found in the deepest dungeons
Of a place that bears a key,
A key that you can give me
If you're patient enough to find me.
You and me are someone else's,
Solemnly vowed together but not forever..
We dwell in minds that's long forgotten
but never far away beyond our reach.
Smiling, kissing and living as hypocrites,
Of a promise that was never made.
Staring deep into those eyes,
Searching for a pause
Only to realize you missed that gaze,
That was once yours forever,
But nevermore.
DESIRE
Tracing back my steps
I look behind at those uncertain days
Days of careless movement and senseless living
Held by the clutches of vanity and self indulgence.

I realized for good
That life is all around me
Breathing and living
Subtle in its own existence.

I might have grown
I might have seen
But still I haven't dissolved
Into an ocean of unknown depth.

Deeds that cycle around the self
Thoughts pertaining to myself
What is it that i yearn?
For its something that has no relevance to me.

Hearing daily verses of worry
Bother me just like a fairy
Vanishing like a night spell
Into the infinite abyss of my own dwell.

Things that mean
Things that matter
With me nowhere in the picture
But certainly with me it will do.

Carry the world around
For its much more than my own little abode
Caressing a shield within me
A sword of my own actions.

Let go, leave everything
And see for what it truly is
For with my little hands
I might make a change.
Growing as someone
Merely walking as the days go by
Sensing nothing but your breath
Are you living, growing or just existing???
you inhale and breathe the very air that let the seed sprout into the majestic shade that kept you cool when you played under its canopy as a child wondering ,why butterflies are so colorful...... why did your shadow follow wherever you went, why you felt a tingle whenever a ladybug walked on your arm and why the rains always inspired you to get wet and dance your heart out......  there is rain, air, bugs, butterflies, leaves, mud,... waiting to be touched by you ,so you know that there's always a rainbow eagerly waiting to shine just for you....
there is not just one life to be lived, you are living many just as you are reading this......
