I hoped even if it wasn't easy catching big dreams
In my palms and not losing them in the streams
I hoped to have a poem with the best line
To be the best rapper and not just mime
I wanted to have the roughest car in this city
Yes, I needed a big monster beauty
I lusted to be upon a podium of fame
I wanted to burn with the brightest of flame
I had a fatal thirst to spread my tentacles
To be the lad who walked out of manacles
I wanted to oil the wheels of prosperity
A legend who preached against any disparity
I wanted to be the real hallmark of charity
The bravest enemy to injustice and barbarity
I wanted to be a beautiful bloom of peace
To let the world be spring of love and bliss
I wanted to succeed in all before I leave
I wanted to exit the world after finding what I believe
I desired to hold hands with my fate
I wanted to achieve whatever I did contemplate
I did everything, whatever was needed
That's how I succeeded
Ignatius Hosiana May 2015
I held arms and took to the battlefield
I was a coward but you gave me a courageous build
How do you expect me to feel
When you say you're bowing out besides getting chilled?
You had the spirit that could kindle flame till the end
You had the will to move mountains my friend
I know I might have had it cross the line, my pawn
But how could I see a line on the sand when by the wind it was blown?
I don't know why It's a big deal for you to surrender
To me you've always been the game changer
Who'll teach us where and when to break the rules?
When you're gone who'll hold our fingers and help us with the tools?
It's a war you readily started because you knew you could face it
Watching you cry on was an encouraging feeling, we had it
We loved us, nothing else mattered when you was the king
It was one way, one people, one motto, we was one thing.
You can't step out of the ring however extreme the May weather
However chilling it may be, It's always warm with inspiration when we're together
Put on your man pants, man up and get back into the game
It's you who told us we're all in a game but not everyone's rules are the same
I ain't trying to aim fatal arrows of blame
at you
All I'm saying is we was all strong under the flagship of your name,
And captain, we miss you
Ignatius Hosiana Apr 2015
Today I gazed into the mirror
Realized I'm, I've been and
Different will forever be.
I realized something else
That somewhere out there
There's someone like me
Living within his own confines
Better versions of everyday
He constructs and life redefines
Someone who thinks reality is wrong
And dreams are for real
Someone who once struggled against the wheel
And realized it’s got a stronger will
Someone whose weakness is their strength
Someone who always goes alength
Someone who knows that the normal Train left
While they in the day slept
So they have to wake all night
To think, imagine fight and write
Someone who knows the past is abreast
That they can surf the wave of life to her crest
For while others are in motion
There's always them at rest
And that fact addressed
Now embrace that notion
Someone whose cyclone is cynical
Going past the usual pinnacles
In a struggle to being a pinnacle ladder
Someone working ****** harder
Someone different but feeling no shame
Knowing our differences make us the same
Ignatius Hosiana Mar 2015
Step by step I'm walking away
It's a battle creating a wider gap
But It's more disastrous to stay
So forgive my walking chap
I'm trying to close my ears
To the crescendos of regret
I don't wanna show you my tears
I don't want you to feel in debt
I'm walking away
From the haunty -taunty memories
Walking past the effervescent fairies
I'm walking further from cradle
I need a rest from the entire struggle
Been sticking around too long
Together but too alone
It's time I found some company within
I'm finally lifting up my chin
Not to prove I got a beard
To face the reality I've hither feared
I'm walking so deep into the jungle
I'm going past my limit triangle
Past the games I underscored
To the peaks I've not explored
Beating the limits lingering like a shadow
With only my mind as my Ammo
I'm going far far away
From here, I’m walking away

Left to the storm...
Left for dead...
Abandoned...
Betrayed...
But not bitter...
Determined...

All it takes is you believing
we could make this work,
    but leaving
         just to lurk
    prompting grieving
         just to perk
                me up ascending on some chariot you broke
                            defending all the arson in the mirrors with the smoke
I cough, and choke
til I awoke
       the words still stuck inside my throat
       you swore you wrote this swollen note
Tell me then, pleading, revoke
to which you reply, I misspoke.

All it takes is you believing
faintly, even so
I'll pound pavement retrieving
anything we need to go.

All it takes is you believing
and I'll vicious fight our cause
til I'm buried or I'm ashes
consuming body by my mind
which precedence for you defined
to hush protests below mustaches
bristled veil the daily grind
and anyone leaves us behind
sees our reflections brightly shined
and they all crashes
and they all crashes

all it takes is you believing.
Sarah Gammon Dec 2014
I don't want to be bitter
with walls as hard as steel.
I want to be the free spirit
that I truly am for real.

I like to love with all I have
and worry not of potential pain
so all those who have no love
have a chance to feel it again.

Kindness takes no effort,
and it comes from me with ease.
I can't allow myself to shut out,
all the people with these needs.

I could never turn my back
on all the broken hearts,
on all the lonely souls
who've had little from the start.

I'm not a person to be spiteful,
to feel vengeful or stay angry.
I like to forgive and forget,
and I like to make people happy.

I tried to build a wall,
but I could never let it stay,
as my heart is an open door
so I can give happiness away.

It's too painful to stay angry,
I'd rather smile all the time,
so to let go, it's necessary,
to embrace this happiness of mine.I don't want to be bitter

I'm good at making people feel good about themselves. I inspire people. I can't turn my back on the world just because some jerks turned their back on me.
