We search for
Peace and bliss.
This is what
Keep our life
In balance.
We are attracted
To some Things
Like
Passion
Aim
And more
It's not easy
But not hard
To Achieve
So we will be
In focus
Every second
So no time for us
To be free
Lacking peace.
Appreciate small
Success of yours
This gives everything.
We forget to
Be happy
For small things.
"Every rain starts
With a single drop"
Be happy what we are
What we had
Thought of some
Inspiration

big bang

according to science
we have come from an explosion called the Big Bang
yet I never really fully understand this
and then I met you
as if stars and planets collided at once
and ****** the breath out of me
you have made me experience this phenomenon
and I see stars and galaxies resides within you
which is why i cannot help but admire the way your skin feels
and run my fingers through your hair
because this rare opportunity to be so close to someone
who can make me feel
as if Big Bang is happening all over again
only comes once in a lifetime
(i'm talking more about the explosion than the actual theory because technically the big bang wasn't an explosion but rather an expansion)

Love.

Love.
Four letters
A syllable
That can transform a shattered heart
Can soften a warped mind
Can twist and bend separate lives
And mesh them into one.
Lack of love can
Destroy nations and civilizations
Cause a body and soul to frost over
Until the entirety of its spirit
Is left lifeless and icy.
So why is love so often confused with
Insults that are thrown like bad pitches?
Psychological abuse that infiltrates a vulnerable mind
And causes its owner to falter?
Phrases that are tossed around the dinner table like
"You're so annoying"
"You're fat"
"What is wrong with you?"
How can that be love?
How can we teach children that they have to respect their parents
Because they love them?
How can our daughters discern love from abuse in romantic relationships
When they hear this daily from their fathers?
How can our sons know how to treat a woman with dignity
When their dads act this way towards their moms?
And we wonder why the statistics
For violence among relationships
Are the way they are.
We wonder why girls are promiscuous
Well why the hell not?
We wonder why boys do not respect their female counterparts
Well why the hell would they?
Why can't parents just respect and accept their kids
As they supposedly agree to do
From the day they are born?
Maybe then we can teach the latter generation
That love and respect
Go hand in hand.

i keep forgetting that i am no longer
his definition of "lovely," that he no
longer finds my face his favorite
thing to memorize. my freckles
are no longer the stars in his
night sky. my lone dimple
is no longer the crater
in which he swims.

my
brown eyes
are no longer the
way he likes his coffee.

There was never a part of me I liked to be around.
I'm lonely in my own head but tonight I'm going to forget that I'm real.

I'm warm in this cocoon I've made for myself and I don't plan on ever coming out.

I close the garage door and turn on the ignition and tonight I am who I want to be.

loneliness

as i get older, i realize bonds are not as easily forged and the value of friendship increases astronomically
i realize how long it's been since i've been touched
and remember how i used to hug each and every one of my friends when i was younger
and now it's a wave, a quick nod of the head before briskly walking out the door, no looking back, no checking to see if everything is okay
i realize loneliness isn't saved for 2 am revelations
loneliness is saved in the mundane moments-
watching tv on the couch
wanting to tell someone how i feel, but not wanting to annoy anyone
trying to sleep in the middle of the day because there's nothing to look forward to and oblivion is better than the soul crushing disappointment
of loneliness
