everyone is saying
I look so sad
these days
but the thing is
I don't know
how to look happy.
my eyes just look
expressionless,
filled to the brim with exhaustion.
so please don't
say
"c'mon, look happier."
because I want to
but I can't.
Time comes & goes in this life, in many ways,
Time has three dimensions, past, present, and future,
What is time, so many ways, to describe time,
You wish you had more time, then you lose track, of time,
Then you have too much time, and you waste time,
You may worry about time, then you pass the time of day,
Easter time, Christmas time, each holiday, has its own time,
As do the seasons, spring time, and winter time,
Then its bed time, time to get up, time to eat, time out,
Time to go, It’s about time you came, time for another,
When was the last time, time for reality,
Time moves on, take some time, you can’t buy more time,
Take your time, what about the time, you forgot about the time,
Not much time, somethings, do not take much time,
Its about time, be on time, special times, a bad time,
An easy time, a hard time, sometimes you have no time,
Too much time on your hands, how much time will it take,
Time to move on, night and day, have their own times,
Watch the time, all the time, then you get confused, about time,
The wrong, or right time, its almost time, forget the time,
Do you have any time, who has the time, is it worth the time,
Time to go, time to stop, you take time to think,
Time to change, time to learn, time for your turn,
Sometimes, you get burned.
Seconds, hours, day’s, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries,
So many ways do regulate, and describe time, what is time,
Time is the same, repeats, every twenty - four hours, you would,
Think we could remember, time, although, we are always checking,
The time.
There are two times in our life, the most important, when God,
Created everything, the planets, the moon, the sun, water…
That’s when time started, which is our path to eternity,
The time talked about all of the time, was created, by a human,
To control, regulate, keeping records of the humans, during this lifetime,
When your soul, travels, to its next adventure, you will be back,
On Gods, time.

I can't express it enough times;
I keep putting down these rhymes;
I keep spitting these lines,
as my inspiring words
comes to ones mind.
I'm giving out expressions,
My lines are like Lessons,
More like a full Confession,
I just want to be a Blessing.
I Express the way I feel,
For, this Poetist is Real
I give rhymes like everyday,
Turn your gray clouds
to a Sunny Day!!!
When you don't have a clue,
believe, I go through struggles too
I know just how you feel
This Love for you is Real!!!
Through good or bad weather,
We'll get through it together!!!!

Why isn’t “*******” a complement?
I mean, when “Thank you” isn’t enough?

You get a great meal and fantastic service at a restaurant.
You leave a nice tip and as you leave, you add, a waving,
cheerful “*******!” Which says it all.

You have your car repaired, it cost ½ the estimate -
you’re thrilled - and as you view the bill, you grin
and say, “*******!” The mechanic smiles
proudly and says, “You’re welcome!”

You’re at work and your boss says that you’re getting a raise.
You say, “*******!” And you mean it.
He/she laughs and says, “Right back at ya!”

Isn’t getting ****** - at the right place, with the right
someone, one of life’s elysian pleasures? I mean honestly.
It should be up there with ‘God bless you.”

‘*******’ should be a standard courtesy expression,
there should be Hallmark ‘*******' cards,
with happy faces on them.
BLT Marriam Webster word of the day challenge: Elysian: blissful or delightful in an almost otherworldly way.

A collage of tragedy
people with broken heads
I've never met
bones blood and cracks
pasted on a woven mat
effusive the unexplained
brutality unrestrained
social insanity above
hidden tapestry.

I don’t understand love,
It doesn’t come easy to me.
But perhaps I can give it
In a cosy cup of tea.

Or perhaps I can wear it
In hand-me down clothes.
Showing off the loose threads
Of the jumper that you chose.

Can you understand my love,
how hides in things?
In sweet deserts and brand new shirts
And hand built wooden swings.

And with all of this stuff,
We’ll build ourselves a home.
Communication corse and rough
I hope it is enough.
This is one for all the dads who can only show love through acts of service WOOO

I often look weird in photos, maybe because I'm vain
When I'm certain I'm smiling, I appear to be in pain
I could practice my friendly expression in the mirror
But then I'd have a stiff face and probably look insane

I am humble on my right

that can turn arrogant at night

the next card is not known

like ways, my next emotion is thrown



Years came and years gone

where is the end I do not know

the fun was hanging on a branch

that can collapse at any part



Weather was warm and pleasing

the dejected face was freezing

this expression was never shown

it's the nature that always heals



All emotions are complex

what threatens is Short living anger

killing some good vibes

that tucked with us the whole time

Ink in water
A dark rolls
In the invisible
Like light at night

As the candle warns
Forlornly to wage
Quiet battle

Dark
against defends
and Unseen deploys

A shadow dances
Rising silent
Defined by denial

The glowing quill
Lifted, weilded
Strokes such ink well

To borne a truth
To what end shown
from hence within.
Poetic truth of the depressed type of mind.

Nakabibingi ang tunog ng katahimikan
Katahimikang pumapaimbulog sa karimlan
BinaLi ang sungay... buntot ay nabahag....
NakasisiLaw na tila maLiyab na sunog etong Liwanag
Liwanag na magbibigay linaw sa iniwang bakas ng alingawngaw
Puwing na hinipan... Hagip pati ang tahip na tinalupan !

if we truly can see what was good in the bad,
we surely could learned our lesson behind and beyond  !
