So I'm supposed to
Discover
Who I am
What I want
What I am to be.

Where to begin
Discovering the deepest darkest secrets
The wants and the desires
Of this person I have grown to desest.
Isaac Aug 2018
Poetry says a lot about people,
Not just the person who wrote it.
Every person responds in their very own way;
Some so amazed they promote it.
I like to think of what goes through
The minds of those reading what I write.
Whether they recognize nothing of value,
Or whether they discover delight.

"If I Could Give You My Eyes" Series

Life might be too ******* us, as we always think. We always complain for the things we have to face and overcome, for the dissatisfaction and the things we can't always have. But, I guess it's just trying to teach us something important. I've just realize that the easier things to achieve the complicated our life might be. You see, if we will never learn how to push ourselves, to get out of our comfort zone, to make sacrifice, to believe and have faith or to do something we thought we can't but we did, we will never learn the value of something. It might be the value of someone to us, the value of their efforts, the things they do to get wherever they are right now, the importance of time we have while we're living or simply the value of life.

We will never learn how to be stronger, to be wiser. We might never have the chance of meeting the better version of us if everything was easy. And most importantly, if everything will be easy for us to get then everything will also be easy to be taken away from us. Life wants us to grow and learn every single time it throws us challenges or opportunity rather. An opportunity to extend ourselves and learn  or think more out of the box.

Be brave, be kind and always look forward to the good things. We never lose. If you made it, it will be an achievement and if you fail, consider it as a lesson that you have learned along the process. Sometimes we just need to learn things in a hard way, we will never fully understand the ways of life. But whatever it is, it's always about the choice that we make today that will lead us to where we will be tomorrow.

The most important lesson that I have learned is "The best part of learning is not when we are being taught, instead it is when we start to discover"

And wow, just like that, look how growth finally say hi to me.

rush

in the forest
i see the light
of something true
though
beyond my circumstances
there’s a question
i can’t seem to find
doubts that hidden inside
squeezing me to tighten
my mind
but tensions are
boiling
far from what i know
and
yet the feelings
will always prevent me
to go
out of my limits
when you are only limited
but you haven’t tried going out there.
I think you just have to push yourself more
maybe, there’s an answer for it
someday when you keep exploring and
eventually you’ll end up discovering a lot
than you never expected to.

There is a person
outside of time

who created a world
that was sublime.

It was us who chose
to eat the fruit

that turned mankind
down a different route.

If we would listen,
he'll show us the way

and we will discover
it's best to obey.

Hold it with nothing
only behold with the eyes!
Lo, this crescent Moon:
The heaven's smile in the night!

It’s the discovery made
walking down the black moon.
Without a light in the sight
as if walking blindfolded
but didn't go into the blue.

Took a trip into the matrix
without squaring the circle.
With no pattern, no more decimals of pi
undefined by design but found the Moon!

I wish you could understand how I feel
Realize that emotions aren't something I conceal
Although we've been together awhile
Can't quite pinpoint what makes you smile

I do not enjoy being misunderstood
What in my life has ever been good?
Tell myself I wasn't hurt before
But I have suffered a broken heart and more

I've changed, I'll never be the same
At least I know how to play life's game
I just want to learn and discover your past
So we actually make this last

it's the little things
waking up extra early to watch the sunrise
staying up late to talk to the stars
road tripping and discovering new towns
talking for hours and hours with those you love most
appreciate these moments
