Life is Worth Living
roseveltbaxley Aug 2019
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

if you don't want to continue.
and you feel it is no more 'alright'
we start to fight against one to another
smallest things
comes with
sweetest lies
faithful promises fall to Earth
i'm not crying because
of this tragedy
nor the pain

i'm sobbing because
i can't stop you with
my words that was once
your fav rhymes
your fav lyrics

but now,
my words is vanished
in your world.
-meaningless
-useless
-effortless

but please, don't burn us.
don't burn our memories.

Radhe
roseveltbaxley Jan 2019
My brain has no heart, and my heart
has no brain. That's why when I speak
my mind, I appear heartless and when I
do what's in my heart I seem thoughtless.

I'm sorry :')

Q1- how much?
roseveltbaxley Nov 2018
before you say you love me,
how much of me you can
tolerate?

mademoiselle

Whatever you give a woman,
She's going to multiply.

If you give her a *****,
she'll give you a baby.
If you give her a house,
she'll turn it as a home.
If you buy her groceries,
she'll cook you a meal.
If you blink her a smile,
she'll give you her heart.

She multiplies and enlarges what
is given to her. Isn't that lovely?

waves

for the highs and the lows; and moments between,
mountains and valley; and rivers and streams,
for where you're now; and where you'll go,
for "I've always known" and "I told you so",
for "nothing is happening" and "all goes wrong"
it's 3 hele in this journey,
you will learn to be strong,
you will get where you're going,
loading where you belong...

My Garden
roseveltbaxley Nov 2018
This is my garden, I'll plant it with care,
Here are the seeds- I plant in there,
darling,
The sun will shine.
The rain will fall.

surely the seeds will
sprout
and
grow up tall

Scars
roseveltbaxley Nov 2018
Scars are like memories,
and tattoos.
when you fall, when your heart breaks,
and when your best friend turns her back on you.
it leaves scares that hurt every time you think about it.
it's a memory that will stuck
in your head.
it's in the past but it comes back and bites.
it's a tattoo because it's a memory
that hurts, but doesn't disappear.
It never does. When you see it so vividly,
you sometimes regret what led you
to the scar that is a memory
that leaves an imprint in
your life's history.

-rose.
