I woke up late last night
Startled by the light
One on the wall to the left of me
One on the wall to the right

I turned my head this way and that
Which made it very clear
The dawning light inside of my room
Was coming from my ears

My very first reaction
Was one of lost control
When I took my index fingers
And plugged up my ear holes

Which must have taken some effort
That really wore me out
As I inadvertently began to yawn
The light came out my mouth

The only answer to my question
I must have had a bright idea
But since I was sleeping at the time
I can't remember what it is

Always,
Find a reason,
To love,
To laugh,
To be kind,
For it may not,
Add years,
To your life,
But surely,
Add life to your years.

Make your life,
Worth living for!
Take a look inside my home:

I live in a Dream because Reality
hurts
leeched on by long tendrils and roots
wrapping, resting
around my nervous system
that plant seeds in my mind,

"She's so *fly
,
perfectly alike,
On the call, on the go for
me,
no questions asked.
Our personalities
bare and unmasked."

But only inside my head
can this hopeless reality be watered.
I try so hard
to write beautiful poems,
to write happy poems.

I want so much
to seem happy,
to be okay.

I try so hard
to write happy poems
and yet, they're always fake.

love me
I write to free myself
from the demons inside me that entangle me in their monstrous webs
I write because the words listen
to all my problems big and small
I write to feel
the feelings i cannot put together in my own head
I write to dream*
of the person i hope to become
I write to forget
the memories of him that haunt me*
I write to remember
the memories of us that made me
I write for hope
*so that i may look forward to the next day

hundreds of thousands of words,
we told through our whole life

tens of thousands of sentences,
you wrote in your novel

thousands of dreams,
we dreamed through our passing dark nights

millions of images,
we left in our moving past times

but my friend
at the end,
I carry

only a few images of withered petals
except all those nightmares
yet I can feel a few dreams of yours, repeatedly

even I can recall a few words of yours
that grew the motion of life
maybe you can feel a few words of mine

As  the words that can make a wonderful  lyric
"I love you, that holds an eternal truth"
yet that shining as a crystal of diamond
..

words those make a lyric of love
it is
easily
forgotten
that each
avatar
is a
real
person

with real
flesh and blood
bodies

real emotional issues

real hearts and minds

we should never
make assumptions
about them biased
by their age
or try to
figure them out
based on their work

they have been writing
through a glass
computer screen
just as you have

they live
they breathe
they bleed

just
like

YOU

It's very difficult to
Read someone at the best of times

Add to that mix the fact
That you cannot see them!

Be cautious but also
Try to give folks the
Benefit of the doubt!

Everyone’s greatest fear is rejection.
We knew its existence,
but no one understand it clear.

       The feel of rejection,
       Is like cutting the deepest of our soul
       by a razor that causes an affliction.

Carved our hearts to the extent.
Leaving with painful scar,
and making it permanent.

       Stark naked vulnerability, all aglow
       We can find no escape
       But to let the tear in our eyes flows

But a human like us,
Is  a material thing, easily torn
and not easily mended.

       When aggrieved, craving to be relieved.
       For you, neither have I lived nor relived.
       **In rejection, I fear
