So much time to win.
So much time to lose.
So much time to think.
So much time to choose.
So much time to love.
So much time to hate.
So much time to give.
So much time to take.
So much time to be afraid.
So much time to be brave.
So much time between
the cradle and the grave.
So much time to create.
So much time to destroy.
So much time to unapologetically
Be who you want to be.
Whether you're a girl or boy.

I draw
With words
Cross lines of grey
On paper
Ivory white

I draw
With words
To describe
The indescribable
Delight

I draw
With words
In hopes that
My words may
Take flight

I draw
With words
For those
While cannot see
The sight

I draw
With words
For those afraid
To ****
The night

I draw
With words
Because the world
Needs tell
Of the beauty
Created bright
Haven't posted in a while... sorry! Not that it's that important :P.

dear you human,
whatever kind of human
you may be.
(literally whatever kind)

i begin with i imagine a world,
a world where we have mastered and taught the art of thinking and the art of feeling.

the kind of world that enables a journey to explore the oneself in,
it's time we begin to look for something inside.

to go to a time of reflection and creation,
let's go back to the time we spoke to eachother in poetry,
the time we thought what we felt and felt what we thought,
a time we cared about all.

let's go back to the time that uniqueness vividly excited us,
a time we all understood that to be good is to do good
and to do good is to think and therefore feel good.

and if a time of such has never existed then let's create it together,
collectively as one using the whole of our unique individuality.

because today we live in a world, in an environment created using the collective unique individual thinking and feeling of generations that so much hated the oneself that they were subconsciously and significantly able to avoid the practice as whole.

Cry
on
paper

while
tears
flow

through a
pencil.

Look deep inside.

Listen.

Stand still.

Understand.

This
is part of
nature.
I've had the phrase "Cry on paper" stuck in my head for a few weeks.  It's been there since I wrote another poem.. because I was quite literally crying on paper at that moment... both through my pencil and my eyes.

my screams were so silent I could create the music you like

The way to reinvent is to rebrand
To create oneself requires real ambition
To try discovering your true self
You need no one's permission
It's okay to not know who you are because most of us are still figuring it out

Depicting galaxies in my head
when i close my eyes

The visuals only i can see
though my eyes cannot see

The power of the mind
to paint pictures without pigment

My imagination running wild
no excuse not be creative today....
