If we met on street,
or cafe,
brother of mine,
would we befriend each other?
I think not for
our interests
would clash not suiting
each others needs.
If we met in park,
or shop,
sister of mine,
would we befriend each other?
I think not for
our consciousnesses of life
would clash
insufficient to hold
a friendship bond.
If we met
on vacation,
or place where others mingle,
son of mine,
would we befriend each other?
I think not,
as ties of lineage
does little when judgements
weaken the chance to rondevu.
If we met
in a home for aged,
or across dinner table,
mother dearest,
would you befriend me,
not knowing who I was?
I think not,
for visions of self
has always been dull,
and sadness is something
that has cut the heart
most of my life.
If we met
inside anyplace
traveled,
father of mine
would we befriend each other?
Hell yes,
but you have parted this earth realm
leaving me to see you in dreams.
So, if I meet you
in present times
ties to a family
would not be.
And
perhaps,
a friendship
would start
to make a soul
for-filled.

FOR ME NOT ALL
Iv’e learned that
blood is not thicker than water
and while I carry no anger towards those mentioned in
this poem, sometimes a scar of sadness opens
that from time to time bleeds.
It bleeds when I see what others inside their family have.
I know relationships served its purpose
in the scheme of spiritual growth,
so I except the plate of a journey I’ve been given,
and eat when I can.
